Just like humans, sadly our furry friends can be affected by cancer, and early detection is crucial for their well-being. Here are some signs to watch out for:
1️⃣ Unexplained Weight Loss: Keep an eye on your pet’s weight. Sudden and unexplained weight loss could be a red flag.
2️⃣ Lumps and Bumps: Regularly check for any unusual lumps or bumps on your dog’s body. If you notice anything new or changing, consult your veterinarian.
3️⃣ Changes in Appetite: A sudden change in eating habits, whether an increase or decrease, could be a sign of an underlying issue.
4️⃣ Lethargy or Decreased Activity: If your greyhound or lurcher is less active than usual, it’s important to investigate the cause, as it could be related to health concerns.
5️⃣ Coughing or Difficulty Breathing: Respiratory symptoms can be indicative of various health issues, including cancer.
6️⃣ Abnormal Bleeding: Any unusual bleeding, such as from the nose, mouth, or other body openings, should be promptly addressed.
Remember, these symptoms do not necessarily mean your dog has cancer, but If you observe any of these signs, don’t hesitate to reach out to your veterinarian for a thorough examination. Early detection can make a significant difference in the outcome of cancer treatment.
Let’s remember those furry friends who have fought the brave fight against cancer, and extend our love and support to those currently facing this challenge.
