Pet Cancer Awareness

Hey Folks!

Although November is National Pet Cancer Awareness Month within the United States, lets make pet cancer awareness a 24/7 habit in all places around the world to keep pets healthy as possible!

Pet cancer is a number-one disease related killer of dogs. Some of the very common cancerous conditions include:

• Lymphosarcoma or Lymphoma
• Skin Cancer
• Bladder Cancer
• Brain or Spinal Cord Cancer
• Liver (Hepatic) Cancer
• Bone or Joint Cancer

Bet sure to detect any cancer early. Be attentive to any growing lumps or sores that do not heal. Monitor your pets and take notice if they have: drastic changes in appetite or weight, any unusual strong odors coming from their body, discharge or bleeding from any body opening, difficulty chewing or swallowing.

In terms what pets should eat, a nutritious cancer-fighting diet will include low carbohydrates and lots of Omega -3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids can be found in the form oils including fish, flax seed, cod liver, salmon, and olive.




Nutrition Ideas For Dogs With Cancer

November is National Pet Cancer Awareness Month

Balancing Omegas 3 and 6

Dog and Cat lovers have turned to fatty acids to rejuvenate their coats. Benefits to Omega fatty acids go beyond just helping the skin and coat but play a role in controlling allergies, inflammation and digestive issues.

Both Omega 3 and 6 are the biological foundation of metabolic processes. They help pets immune systems, histamine reaction and inflammatory response.

A good quality supplement will contain ingredients such as flax seed, flax seed oil, fish oils (salmon, pollock), coconut oil, and virgin olive oil. 

Supplements from these companies are very highly recommended.
