You could consider, as a start, the entries in this blog about the omega fatty acids, carbohydrate restriction, curcumin, medicinal mushrooms, melatonin, EGCG and others. Do some research on artemisinin. You want to run everything by the oncologist to avoid chemo interference. I have seen dogs who lived way beyond (years) the median survival times following amputation with cancer appropriate diet and these supplements. Don't forget sleeping in total darkness, building self esteem through gentle training and stimulation, exercise to avoid stress, and social interactions. All of this is part of full spectrum care. I wish you the very best during this challenging time Best, D Kat, I have a book coming, also check out the dog cancer coping guide available as a download.

His front left leg was amputated & his lungs looked clear & no lymph nodes involved. I need to know the best diet during & after, as well as any supplements. Do you have any books to recommend? What is the longest survival time you know of for a dog w/ this kind of diagnosis? Thank you, Kat 214-349-4641 My Rottweiller(age 5) begins chemo today for osteosarcoma.
