So far Bridgette seems to be doing well. Having been diagnosed on 2/26 with hemangiosarcoma of the spleen and given only 3 short months to live. I think all the prayers, homecooked food, Chinese herbs and acupuncture are helping her. For how long I don't know but I'm thankful for,this extra time we have been given with her. Our grand boys are visiting for 2 weeks and I hope to get some great pictures of them with her as they just love her and she thinks they are the best playmates ever! Praying for a lot more good times with her....

Bridgette

So glad that Bridgette is doing well.
We've lost three dogs to hemangiosarcoma: two were Samoyeds and one Golden Retriever.

We were given the same diagnosis. So glad she's beaten the odds! Get a ton of pictures and give her a ton of belly rubs!! She's such a sweet girl. I hope you have a lot more time with her. You're doing everything right! What kind of herbs is she on?

I give her yunnan baiyon, we Qi booster, max formula and mushroom blend of turkey tail and reishi. Also, contacted and canine nutritionist/herbalist who based on her health came up with a home made diet consisting on sardines, dark,chicken, sweet potato, quinoa, lintels, liver, peas and vitamins that I blend in. I can't help but think all this is helping her. Also, acupuncture every other week.

Hi Karen, I totally understand. I lost my last 4 goldens before her to hemangiosarcoma. They weren't all related but it's such a nasty cancer. I know how lucky I am with her right now.

Hey guys! I am so very sorry we are all in the same boat. My beautiful chocolate lab Mousse just was diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma and had an emergency splenectomy. I have ordered turkey tail mushroom capsules I was wondering what else should I do? I am desperate and devastated my heart aches. Please let me know if there is any other herbs that can be taken with turkey tail mushroom. Thank you and may all the pups be happy and healthy!

There is a FB group called Hemangiosarcoma Diet and Supplement Protocol for Dogs-A Holistic Approach

It is has a wealth of information, along with many others going through the same thing and what is helping them.

I wish you all the best!

My doctor loves Roger Clemmons (the vet, not the baseball player). Look for his cancer diet recipe...we are using it now with a mushroom extract he recommends. Also Yunnan Baiyao and stasis breaker.

As I understand it, it’s not the cancer that kills them but what it does to their body, so you keep them strong. Also cancer feeds on sugar so a sugar free / no carb diet will feed your dog but not the cancer.

We too have lost several Goldens to cancer...nasty thing. Only had one that lived a long somewhat natural lifespan (14). The latest golden has the same cancer on her shoulder. ??

willow harvest organics for canine cancer

Hi California Gold,
I saw your post about using willow harvest organics and am thinking to purchase some turkey tail from them. Did it seem to help your pet and after using them for some time, did any issues arise?

Thanks!

. I’m sorry for the late delay. I’m not sure if it helped but between everything that I gave her I would say we got an additional 3 months with her.
