The Dog Cancer survival guide
by Dr. Demian Dressler, DVM with Dr. Susan Ettinger, DVM, Dip, ACVIM
Before I read The Dog Cancer survival guide, I went strictly by my veterinarian’s advice, which often involved surgery and chemo. I knew of supplements, but my vet did not make any recommendations.

Lola Ball was inspired to write about her experiences after two of her dogs developed cancer. Porter, a lab, had hemangiosarcoma and Jasper, a lab mix had mast-cell tumors on his liver. Ball interweaves her dog’s stories in with detailed information about treating dogs with cancer. She has consulted with veterinarians and referenced many books on the topic.
