Mysterious illness 10y/o dachshund going blind. Help

Wednesday, November 10th, 2010
I have a 10 year old dachshund and has always been very healthy.  All of a sudden he has gained a lot of weight, he seems to be going blind, and today we noticed a small lump on his neck.  It seems to be somewhat hard and jagged.  He is acting mostly normal except a little slow since his sight is going.
Both my wife and I recently lost our jobs so we cant afford expensive vet bills so we have been putting off taking him to the vet but the small lump we found today made us worry.
Any ideas what we could be looking at here?
Thank you for your help,
Jason

7 y/o Boston Terrier with Grade 3 Mass Cell Tumor

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

My mother’s 7-year-old Boston Terrier was diagnosed with a Grade 3 Mass Cell Tumor.  It was in the Anal/Vulva area.  Although the tumor was completely removed, the Vet and the Pathology report believes the cancer has spread.  Blossom is eating well and shows no signs of the cancer.  The tumor was there for at least 6-months with no other signs of illness.  We have gotten a second opinion from another vet is has dealt extensively with Mass Cell Tumors.  He says that at the moment Blossom is cancer free with no signs.  He has suggested not putting her on any other medications.  She is already taking Benedryl 25 mm twice a day. My mother is against chem & radiation therapy.  I was reading a posting from a lady that says her dog is on MCT nosode, CV 247, Floressence.  Can you tell me what this is?

Holistic vet helped my dog with mast cell tumors on head

Friday, August 27th, 2010

My Weimaraner was diagnosed with MCTs two years ago – he had two tumours removed, one being on his head so the surgeon wasn’t able to take a wide enough margin. After two operations we decided enough was enough and looked into Homeopathy, and found a wonderful Holistic Vet, we haven’t looked back since. He is taking an MCT nosode, CV 247 (which is also being trialled on humans and is showing very favourable results), Floressence, he is on an organic RAW diet, has cottage cheese and ground flaxseed, fish oils, garlic, yogurt etc. He is doing extremely well, he’s happy, active and full of life, out hunting every day and people can’t believe he has cancer, it’s amazing! Research has shown that we are over vaccinating our pets, the wormers etc are filling them with toxins and this is the result, all unnecessary when it can be done naturally IMO. I urge everyone to please look at alternatives as it’s been a complete eye opener to me 🙂

9 y/o Chihuahua with breast mass tumor. 2nd opinion?

Thursday, April 22nd, 2010

My 9 yr. old chihuahua has a breast mass tumor and I am just wondering if a second opinion would be okay Due to the fact that i can’t feel a lump on any part of her body.

She is active and is eating well.

Our dog has bone cancer in his leg. Our vet wants to amputate.

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

OUR DOG HAS BONE CANCER IN THE LEG (SPINDLE CELL PROLIFERATION (CERTAIN) OSTEOSARCOMA (POSSIBLE).

OUR VET SAYS TO AMPUTATE THE LEG. HE IS A 90 LB DOG AND I’M NOT SURE IF HE WOULD BE ABLE TO WALK ON 3 THEN.

IT’S HIS BACK LEFT LEG.

I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IT IS VERY INVOLVED AFTER IT IS DONE, IS THAT TRUE?

THEN I WAS TOLD BY A FAMILY MEMBER TO GET HIM OFF CARBS. IS THAT TRUE?

I FOUND ON-LINE A NO CARB DOG FOOD, IS THAT CERTAIN?

ANYWAY, THEN I WAS TOLD ONLINE ABOUT RADIATION WOULD THAT WORK?

MY HUSBAND AND I ARE SO CONFUSED RIGHT NOW AND UPSET OVER ALL OF THIS. HE IS ON REMADYL TWICE A DAY AND THAT SEEMS TO HELP FOR NOW. IT HAS BEEN 3 MOS ALREADY.

EVERYONE I TALK TO SAYS IT WILL GET WORSE THE( PAIN) FOR HIM. RIGHT NOW IF YOU LOOK AT HIM HE ACTS FINE. HELP!!!!

EVERYTHING IS SO EXPENSIVE, OUR VET WONT TAKE PAYMENTS AND OTHERS WANT A CONSULTATION FEE.

IF THERE IS A GOD I WISH HE WOULD ANSWER US. IN MY HEART I FEEL THAT HE WILL BE OK BY WHAT WE ARE DOING FOR HIM NOW BUT THE BIOPSY AND X-RAYS SHOW DIFFERENT .

WE DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
