Cancer will affect 1 out of every 4 dogs and 1 out of every 5 cats accounting for nearly 50 percent of all disease-related pet deaths each year.

 

Six million dogs and nearly the same number of cats are impacted by cancer each year. 

 

In fact, cancer is the number one disease-related cause of death in both dogs and cats. Despite the huge impact of the disease, 8 in 10 pet parents know little to nothing about pet cancer symptoms.

 

Dr. Gerald Post talks to Linda about how to recognize the 10 pet cancer warning signs, how to reduce the risk of cancer in dogs & cats, and what to do if your pet develops cancer.
