Re: Flea problems

No 90 day products that won't toxify you and your babies. The topical products you are also using are neurotoxins, so apply with care! Vacuuming, although a complete pain, is a simply, nontoxic and fairly effective way of removing flea larvae and eggs, but you must treat both the environment (vacuum and use diatomaceous earth) as well as your pets

Re: Help needed - not sure where to turn next

I would read the info at the Veterinary Society of Surgical Oncology ( www.vsso.org , look under cancer information, then 'dog cancer, by type' then 'mast cell'). Depending on the type of chemo you may have from 0% to 49% effectiveness of chemo to temporarily reduce mast cell populations, but not cure . I think it's really important

Re: Antioxidants during Chemotherapy

I've read the articles suggesting antioxidants should not be used during chemo, but you have to factor in the test studies.

Re: Rottie with knee problems

I am assuming she tore her ACL (this is very common with the breed)...did your vet give you a diagnosis?? I
