Common Dog Diseases & Dangers

Condition Overview
Research shows 27% of all dogs die from cancer (1) with 50% of deaths in older dogs. Over 100 types of cancer exist, requiring specialized diagnosis, treatment, surgery, nutrition and pain management strategies (2). Cancer can affect any part of the body, particularly the skin, bone, and other major body organs. Cancer is considered to be one of the most important causes of death in older dogs. Some types of cancer are slow-growing while some can progress rapidly and are often diagnosed when it is already in the late stages. Cancer can manifest classical signs of the problem such as a tumor or growth, a wound that fails to heal, enlarged lymph nodes, lameness, swelling, and even abnormal bleeding. However, there are cases where there are little or no signs. An early diagnosis is very important for better chances of treatment and recovery.

Potential Complications that may affect Spoodle
The complications associated with cancer in dogs will depend on the organ/s which are affected and the treatment which is applied. Surgery to remove a tumor has higher risks of infection. There are also risks associated with anesthesia. Bleeding and/or damage to nerves may also occur during surgical removal of the tumor. Swelling and inflammation of the incision site is also a common occurrence. Other possible complications include a weak immune system as a result of the administration of chemotherapeutic agents, kidney failure, heart failure, and bone fractures.
