About the Book

Are You Afraid That Your Dog Will Die of Cancer Before It Is Time?

There is no "rewind button"… no magical way to make your dog just like before the cancer struck… but… there is real hope (with real science to back it up) for your dog’s return to health.

Dr. Demian Dressler created the Full Spectrum Cancer Care Approach for his dog cancer patients in his Maui, Hawaii, veterinary hospital. The 300-page book covers every possible facet of cancer care: from supplements to surgery; from good sleep to good food; from meditation to massage; and includes cutting edge botanical-based treatments from the frontiers of human cancer research that help to shrink tumors and kill cancer … and that you can give to your dog at home.

Cutting Edge Cancer Treatments from Traditional to "Alternative" … From the "Full Spectrum" … No Hocus Pocus, Just What Works!

Dr. Demian Dressler, DVM, the "Dog Cancer Vet" of www.dogcancerblog.com, has been deep in the trenches of canine cancer for over a decade.

Deeply disturbed by the skyrocketing cancer rates in man’s best friend, Dr. Dressler has been preoccupied — his wife Allison would say “obsessed” — with finding cancer treatments that really work in real dogs — and go beyond chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.

Why? Because the treatments he learned in veterinary school are sometimes toxic to dogs and don’t succeed as often as they should.

Dr. Dressler’s rigorously scientific "Full Spectrum Approach" to dog cancer includes not just the traditional treatments from veterinary medicine … there’s more, retrieved from every corner of the globe.

Written with a "show me the proof" attitude from a graduate of Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine — which U.S. News and World Report names the best veterinary school in the United States — Dr. Dressler’ comprehensive guide to dog cancer is Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation.

This full-length e-book separates the facts from the fiction and covers every possible option for your dog — from the traditional to the “far out”. Dr. Dressler guides you through chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, diets, lifestyle changes, mind-body medicine, and the latest cutting edge supplements … all scientifically proven to help support eradicating the signs and symptoms of cancer in your dog.

Dog Lovers Want to Know…

If you have been sifting through all the conflicting information about dog cancer — online and offline — this book was written just for you. Maybe you’ve thought:

"How did this happen in the first place? Why does my dog
have cancer?"

"I feel totally powerless. And no one seems to really understand what this is like."

"I am constantly thinking about and dealing with the cancer,
and there doesn’t seem to be any end. I love my dog so much.
I just hate this."

"I can’t believe she will die as soon as my vet says. I want her to beat the odds — but not just survive. I want her to really feel better."

"All these ‘cures’ for cancer … I could be spending all day (and lots of money) feeding weird foods like Noni Juice and Aloe Vera. But do these things really work? How do I know without trying them??"

Here’s how you’ll know:

If the treatment works, and has been proven to work in the real world in live animals (not just in test tubes), it is included in Dog Cancer Survival Guide.

This is everything you need to know about canine cancer and what you can offer your dog in practice (not in theory). This book empowers you to really help your dog and to become your dog’s Primary Health Advocate.

Use this book to make your plan and start living again, with Dr. Dressler’s help.

Does your dog mean the world to you?

If you caught the Oprah Winfrey interview, fellow dog lover Mickey Rourke accepted his Golden Globe with a big thank you to his dogs, who he credits with saving his life. “Sometimes all you got is your dog, and they meant the world to me."

If even tough guys like Mickey Rourke and powerful women like Oprah Winfrey can talk about their dogs in public like this, you know their dogs must mean a lot to them.

But when your dog gets a cancer diagnosis, it can feel awful.

If your dog has cancer, you may feel all alone…

…but you have good company. Every year one in three dogs gets cancer (and the latest numbers say maybe one in two). If tomorrow is an average day, 2,633 dogs in the United States will die of cancer.

If you are on this page because your dog has cancer, remember that a diagnosis is not an “instant death sentence.” However…

…cancer does move fast, and may already be in advanced stages by the time we catch it in our dogs.

Your vet probably wishes that there was something better they could offer dog lovers, but traditional veterinary medicine has only these three treatments:

The total cost of the average course of traditional cancer treatment — including medication, surgery, chemotherapy, radiations, vet consults, and other expenses — is between $5,000-$8,000.

Expenses add up in a hurry when you’re treating a serious disease like cancer, and many vets don’t often make the likely price tag clear at the time of diagnosis.

Even with all that money spent, 50% of dogs with cancer die from it.

The benefit is maybe a few more months of life. “This is unacceptable,” Dr. Demian Dressler, DVM says in his hour-long “virtual dog cancer consult.”

If you haven’t seen this hour long interview with Dr. Demian Dressler, author of Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation, do yourself a favor and check it out sometime. It’s everything he “wishes he had time to tell dog lovers when they first get a cancer diagnosis.”

Most vets would agree that in some cases traditional treatments can seem worse than the disease itself.

Chemotherapy, in particular can sometimes be very hard on dogs. Many owners are afraid that, in the words of one, they’ll “watch my playful, joyful, big-hearted companion turn into a walking corpse.”

Dogs are our best friends, and they deserve better.

If you’re reading this, you probably feel about your dog the same way that Dr. Dressler feels about his dog.

Your dog is more than just a pet.

He is an essential part of your life.

She is your best friend, or maybe even your “child.”

When you feel so close to a dog who has cancer, you will do almost anything to ease their pain and help them to heal.

Dr. Dressler’s love for dogs began in his exotic childhood on the tropical island of Maui, Hawaii. His mother, Lucy, founded the Pacific Primate Sanctuary in 1984, and filled their home with animals of all shapes and sizes, including many dogs.

Lucy Wormser, Dr. Dressler’s mother, introduced him to the joys of animal companionship early. In 1984 she founded the Pacific Primate Sanctuary, a Federally authorized nonprofit wildlife conservation organization.

In his childhood, Dr. Dressler played with the monkeys and cleaned their habitats … today he provides veterinary care to his mother’s sanctuary.

Dr. Dressler’s especially close connection to dogs is obvious to his clients on Maui. And as a traditional veterinarian, he didn’t really understand how many of them were dying of cancer until he "woke up" one day to the crisis. His client, Glenda, had just heard the news that her golden retriever, Max, had osteosarcoma.

As Dr. Dressler gave his “standard speech” about the options and outcomes, he realized that he had virtually nothing of real value to offer this beautiful dog and his amazing owner.

That night Dr. Dressler dedicated himself to researching canine cancer beyond what he’d been taught at the best vet school in the country.

Let’s break out of the veterinary school “box”!

Dr. Dressler uses all three traditional treatments in his own clinic, and he uses them with “eyes wide open” — acutely aware of their risks, and side effects, and how to use them wisely.

And he also includes many more treatments—including some from the frontiers of human medicine — in his treatment plans.

The problems with the “Big Three”

In human cancer, the goal is to cure the disease. Chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery are deployed with speed and full force to get the job done.

Many cancer patients have heard: "We’re going to bring you to the brink of death before we can bring you back."

The "Catch 22" for dog cancer is that we can’t tell our dog about how bad it’s going to get before they get better. We can’t get informed consent for the potentially painful and toxic side effects of treatment.

Since most dog lovers — and most vets — could not bear to see their dog get so sick, in dog cancer the goal of treatment is palliation, or making things better, rather than cure.

So even if chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery do cure dog cancer in theory, they rarely do in practice.

There must be a better way — and there is!

Dr. Dressler knew in his heart there had to be a better way to approach dog cancer.

He set out to find it. He called other vets:

• Traditional vets
• Oncologists
• Lab Researchers
• Holistic vets

…his phone bills looked like the vet listing in the yellow pages.

He talked to scientists on the frontiers of human cancer research, even setting the alarm for 3AM to call the best minds on this and every other continent. Spin the globe and you’ll see how far his research took him—from America to Germany, France, Korea, Japan, and beyond.

He talked to herbalists, healers of all kinds, and nutritionists.

He read endless papers and abstracts and scoured the scientific literature. He pored over conference proceedings.

He found treatments well beyond chemotherapy, radiation and surgery—treatments that were backed up with actual scientific proof.

As he researched, he started to apply what he learned in his hospital. And to his amazement, he saw results.

Unexpected results.

Lia’s hemangiosarcoma — in remission — due to Dr. Dressler’s approach.

For example, Lia L. had already had one hemangiosarcoma removed when she came back in a year later with what looked like a re-growth. Her owners wanted to try something new, and Dr. Dressler put her on some of the cutting edge supplements listed below. Within six weeks the tumor showed complete remission!

In other words, the tumor is no longer there!

Meanwhile, Lia had been free of stitches, anesthesia and its complications, and all the recovery time she’d suffered with the original surgery.

Today Lia is healthy and happily playing, just like she should be.

Lia had a previous diagnosis of hemangiosarcoma when she developed this new tumor. Her owners agreed to try some of Dr. Dressler’s cutting edge treatments rather than undergo another surgical intervention. (These are actual freeze frames from video records made by Dr. Dressler’s staff.)

Six weeks later the tumor was in remission. Her course of treatment was a combination of plant-based substances derived from parsley, green tea, a common food spice, and chamomile and other plants. These were blended together and used as a capsule in Dr. Dressler’s hospital. Each of these agents, and many more, are discussed in Dog Cancer Survival Guide. Also included: doses and the natural sources for these agents.

Buddy told “two months” — still bouncing after nine!

In another hemangiosarcoma case, Dr, Dressler removed Buddy M’s tumor-ridden spleen. During surgery, he could see the cancer had already metastasized and spread to other organs. Traditional veterinary medicine says that in cases like these a dog has little more than two to four months to live, even after the surgery, without massive doses of chemotherapy.

Buddy’s owners decided to try Dr. Dressler’s other options. They figured if their dog had to live with a metastasis, at least they would give him a chance to feel good during his last months. They opted to try some of the more “experimental” (at least in vet medicine) strategies and forget about chemotherapy.

Nine months later — seven months more than expected — Buddy is still bouncing around and shows no visible signs of cancer. Dr. Dressler asked two other veterinarian colleagues for a second opinion as to whether there was a remission.

Both vets did ultrasounds, and neither could find any evidence of metastatic tumors.

And many more stories of hope and healing…

…A stubborn oral cancer (ameloblastoma) in Muttley C. slowed by 50% by Dr. Dressler’s treatments…

…appetite increase, weight increased, smaller oral tumor in Washburn…

…"Rip" the ferret had a tumor around his eye that typically continues to grow and grow… and after six weeks it has actually shrunk by up to 40%…

These are just a few of the successes Dr. Dressler has experienced as a result of what he is doing in his clinic — detailed in Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation.

Of course, these are individual cases, and there are many factors that affect healing — from breed to age to other health complications. There is no way to know whether your dog will respond as dramatically as these beautiful dogs did.

No matter what you have heard, your dog does not have an expiration date.

You may have heard that your dog has six months or three weeks or one year to live. Stop! Think about it. How does anyone know for sure?

Your vet’s prognosis is an educated guess.

Cancer can move fast, it’s true. And it’s likely that you still have time to take care of your dog and become what Dr. Dressler calls the Primary Health Advocate.

Cut Through the Clutter and Empower Yourself with Real World Information.

Everything Dr. Dressler has researched, uses, and advocates, is in one (admittedly big and comprehensive) downloadable book: Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation.

The e-book can be downloaded to your computer even if it is two o’clock in the morning and is kept up to date as new information comes in — because we are learning more every day about how to help dogs with cancer.

This is the book Dr. Dressler wrote for his own clients… everything they should know about dog cancer… that he can’t tell them in a 20-minute consult.

A typical office visit leaves the vet little time to really address your questions in detail. And there is so much to know about dog cancer!

• Treatment Options — what’s the best course for my dog?
• Side Effects — how are the treatments going to affect her?
• Diet — do I need to change what he eats?
• Supplements — what nutritional supplements should I use to treat cancer?
• Cause — how did this happen in the first place????
• Life Expectancy — how long do I have with my dog?
• Pain — is my dog in pain, and will it get worse?
• Cure — is there any hope at all that my dog will recover?

The answers to these questions are complicated. So much depends upon so many factors — it’s no wonder most veterinarians give vague answers like:

“We don’t really know what causes cancer.”

Dr. Dressler used to tell his clients the same thing. That is, until he gave Glenda and Max the dire news, and realized that he should know.

Dr. Dressler used to box after college. He is also a Black Belt in American Kickboxing, a Black Belt in Competitive Karate, and a step away from a Black Belt in Jujitsu. He’s kind of a tough guy. As his sense of frustration and powerlessness in the face of cancer grew, his fighter’s instincts took over — and motivated him to powerful action. Ditching his conventional approach to treatments — ingrained from veterinary school — to "open his eyes" to what else might work in supporting cancer treatment, he approached his research with a truly scientific mindset. Investigate. Pay attention. Be logical. Stay focused on what is really important.

Dr. Dressler’s "take-no-prisoners" approach to fighting cancer is no surprise — he has blackbelts in two martial arts and is working on his third.

What’s really important to Dr. Dressler is your dog’s comfort and healing… and your own hope for a positive outcome.

No matter how sunny your disposition, a cancer diagnosis can bring the clouds. It’s downright scary news.

Unfortunately, our emotional state can directly affect our dog. In fact, many dog experts agree that our emotional state is linked to our dog’s emotional state.

Dr. Dressler provides several tools for managing your emotional state… so you don’t unintentionally make things harder on your dog.

Best of all, when you read about the cutting edge treatments he has unearthed (more about those below), you will likely start to feel better.

There is real hope for you and your dog.

There are effective techniques from the frontiers of medicine that can be applied to your dog’s case, at a fraction of the cost of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.

(With few terrible side effects.)

Does it work? That’s the criteria for inclusion in this book.

Dr. Dressler takes a "show me the proof" stance. That’s why Full Spectrum Cancer Care considers all possible treatments for your dog, as long as they meet as many of the following criteria as possible:

• Scientific studies supporting their effectiveness
  
• A very strong theoretical background for effectiveness
• A very strong historical, common use that supports effectiveness
  
• Minimal side effects or ones that are tolerable for the dog

Written in "plain English" so you can understand everything you read.

Dr. Dressler’s friendly, direct, down to earth style makes Dog Cancer Survival Guide great for regular dog lovers, and serious enough for veterinarians to use.

Conventional treatments so you can make the best choice for your dog.

Dr. Dressler reveals the "best of breed" conventional medical treatments and approaches for dog cancer, including:

• Transitional Cell Carcinoma
• Tumors of the Nose and Sinus
• Hemangiosarcoma
• Melanoma
• Lymphosarcoma (also called Lymphoma)
• Mammary Cancer
• Osteosarcoma
• Mast Cell Tumors

Beyond chemotherapy, radiation and surgery so you have even more options.

Dr. Dressler recommends carefully considering the traditional treatments, and cancer wisdom can come from other sources, too. Dr. Dressler includes information about:

• The differences between allopathic, holistic, and alternative practitioners … so you can “cherry pick” treatments with confidence.
  
• Why effective treatments from every tradition can help your dog … so you stay open to the possibilities.
• The five facets of cancer care, and why traditional veterinary models address only one … so you know you are doing everything you can for your dog.
  
• How to boost the immune system … so the body’s natural ability to fight cancer comes back.
• How to restore body weight and reverse physical weakness … to put the spring back in your dog’s step.
  
• How to block the cancer from raiding the body’s normal cells for their resources … to ruthlessly starve the disease of vital nutrition.
• How to restore life quality and increase happiness in your dog … so depression doesn’t help the cancer win.
  
• What to look for when evaluating cancer treatment … so you can make choices with confidence.
• How to talk to your veterinarian … so you are a cancer fighting team, instead of a doctor and a patient.
  

Dealing with toxic side effects? Try these supplements to ease the pain and soothe the stomach.

There are powerful agents to support the body during traditional cancer treatments that have proven effective at reducing side effects and cancer symptoms. Dr. Dressler discusses the following in great detail:

• Why shredding and chopping the gnarled, woody, fragrant ginger root and adding it to your dog’s food can significantly reduce nausea during chemotherapy and radiation (page 195)
  
• How Coenzyme Q-10 supports the heart, especially when Doxorubicin is used (page 196)
• How Cimetidine soothes the stomach and restores the appetite so often lost because of chemotherapy and radiation (page 197)
  
• Why glutamine is powerful intestinal support to calm diarrhea episodes when undergoing chemotherapy and radiation (page 198)
• How the powerful cordyceps fungus provides precious kidney support for when methotrexate and cisplatin are used, and lung support for use with Lomustine (page 199)
  
• The cutting edge use of Indole-3-Carbinol in supporting bone marrow protection when the chemotherapy drug cyclophosphamide is in use (page 200)
• Guidelines for dosing levels based on weight for each of these supportive agents
  
• Information about how these agents interact with conventional therapies.

Want to shrink that tumor or kill that cancer? New plant-based, food-grade agents that seem to get the job done… without all the side effects.

When it comes to treating the cancer itself, there are many options beyond chemotherapy, radiation and surgery.

In fact, Dr. Dressler has found in published (human!) cancer research that some cutting edge agents have been showing great promise in eradicating the signs and symptoms of cancer.

These treatments are readily available and affordable. They also provide kind, gentle support for the dog.

Dr. Dressler is using these in his own clinic and getting significant results from these experimental agents.

You’ll find out:

• Why a plant pigment found in foods like artichokes, peanut hulls, and chrysanthemums is a Cancer Terminator, destroying the cancer cell’s ability to function normally and replicate in countless ways… (see page 203)
• Why a spice you might have in your pantry is the basis for forty different synthetic anti-cancer drugs being designed at Ohio State University… (see page 205)
• How apigenin — a bioflavonoid found in parsley — had the effect of reducing tumors in mice up to half of their original size (according to The FASEB Journal. 2005;19:2042-2044)… (see page 208)

• Why a polyphenol found in green tea is in US-based clinical trials for cancer treatment… (see page 210)
• Why a compound extracted from a plant in the wormwood family that has been used by Chinese doctors for centuries as an anti-malarial and fever treatment is attracting interest in the West for use in cancer treatment… (see page 212)
• How to decide how much to dose for each of these powerful agents, depending upon your dog’s weight and other factors.

• Precautions to take when using these cancer-fighters to maintain optimal health for your dog.
• How to find these "hidden in plain sight" supplements—available at local health food stores or on the internet — at relatively little cost to you.
• Why it’s so important to discuss your decision to use these potent substances with your vet — so they can modify other treatments that may be affected… or no longer necessary!

Don’t just fight the cancer… support your dog’s whole body so she can heal.

A normal healthy immune system has a "cancer patrol" whose only job is to remove cancer from the body… completely naturally!

In other words, the dog’s body is wise and knows how to deal with cancer, if it is not overwhelmed.

You’ll learn about:

• The difference between healthy and necessary maintenance vitamin dosing and "overdosing" your dog on antioxidants… so you don’t accidentally help the cancer spread.
  
• Why your dog should sleep in total darkness (no television light, no computer screens).
• How important melatonin — a natural hormone produced during sleep — is to cancer support.
  
• Why tiny protein-building molecules called branched chain amino acids are essential to rebuilding muscle tissue lost due to cancer wasting… which amino acid supplements to use… and which to avoid.
• Why a common food thickener found in orange peel helps your dog’s immune system block cancer spread by cutting back on metastasis.
  
• How a very common prescription antibiotic can also be used to stop cancer spread… but most vets don’t know it.
• Why sunlight is good for most dogs with cancer — and when to keep them in the shade.
  
• Why certain mushrooms can be powerful anti-cancer agents in your dog’s body — but also why you have to be careful in giving them—and where you get them.
• Why today’s fast-paced lifestyles cause stress for our dogs… so you can make critical lifestyle choices and help them feel better.
  

Your dog is what she eats… change your dog’s diet, change her body.

The importance of what your dog eats is emphasised in the Full Spectrum Approach to cancer care. Dr. Dressler shows you the ideal cancer patient diet and gives advice on how to get your dog on it with minimal stress or stomach upset.

And a cancer diet is completely different than a "healthy dog" diet!

The cancer diet section includes a basic recipe that can be customized with lots of different tasty foods to appeal to even the most finicky eater. Combine these amazing, healthy foods with the recommended plant-based supplements, and your dog will "become what he eats."

Dr. Dressler discusses:

• The importance of lean, high quality protein — and why the dog food most of us feed our dogs just doesn’t cut it.
  
• Why garlic and brightly colored vegetables — properly prepared — can boost your dog’s health.
• Why it is important to include fatty acids — omega 3’s — in your dog’s diet, how to choose the appropriate oils for your dog, and when you should stop.
  
• Oral enzyme therapy’s cancer-fighting promise, and why mixing digestive enzymes into your dog’s food can improve their health.
• The substance found in broccoli that is a potent anti-carcinogen.
  
• The detailed "pantry list" of foods you should have in your kitchen to support your dog’s cancer fighting abilities.
• Why you should leave most grains out of your dog’s food supply — and which ones to include.
  
  
• The Anti-Cancer Recipe that is flexible enough to tailor for your dog’s appetite and tastes… and will help put the spring back in her step.

The modern dog’s "unnatural enemy"… STRESS… and how to reduce its impact on your dog.

If your dog lived in the wild, she’d have to deal with "natural enemies" like hunger and wolves. You may assume that because your dog is fed regularly, has shelter and companionship, she is "stress-free."

Even the most pampered pooch has to deal with "unnatural enemies" in their environment. Everything from plasma television screens to overhead power lines to bright lights late at night to poor quality nutrition to our own stressful emotions can affect our dogs.

There is a field of science called psychoimmunoneurology — that says that stress in the mind and emotional system has a direct impact on the body. A familiar example of this in humans is ulcers, which can be a direct result of excess stress.

And stress in the body can make it harder to heal from cancer.

Dr. Dressler offers many tools — some familiar, some new — that have been shown to reduce stress and elevate your dog’s mood and self esteem.

Caring for the mind-body connection is one of the most important things you can do for your dog. And it’s fun for you and your dog!

Improve your dog’s quality of life by learning:

• How to start an exercise program that helps improve flexibility, builds self esteem, and makes your dog feel better — no matter how lethargic he may be.
  
• To find out what your dog’s "joys of life" are — and include as many as possible in your Full Spectrum Cancer Care plan.
• Why meditation — yes, meditation — can dramatically improve your dog’s life.
  
• Why "visualizing positive outcomes" can be an important part of your job as Primary Health Advocate.
• Why you might want to pray for your dog — and ask others to do the same.
  
• Why massage, T-Touch, Reiki, and other touch therapies make excellent additions to your cancer care plan.

Cancer may have "come out of the blue" for you… how cancer starts on the cellular level.

It’s important to understand how cancer begins so you can understand how these comprehensive treatments work together to support healing in your dog.

Dr. Dressler shows you the "cell’s eye view" of cancer by discussing:

• What happens to change genes and DNA to jumpstart cancer on the cellular level
  
• How genetic mutations create actual cancer in the cells and then a domino effect
• Why cancer can spread so efficiently and how it turns one cell against the other
  
• The stages of cancer, and why most vets don’t try to categorize cancers this way
• The qualities of "Hard to Cure" cancers, and why they are so tough on the body
  
• Why dogs are so good at "hiding" their illness — and why it comes "suddenly"

How did we get here? The causes of cancer in dogs — and how you can help prevent it in the future.

One of the first questions many dog lovers ask is, "How did this happen in the first place?"

We hear about many problems in our environment these days. Sometimes it can seem like "everything causes cancer."

And vets, when asked, often say, "We don’t know."

The truth is that many factors can increase risk. Dr. Dressler goes over the many risk factors in detail—so that you can help your dog now and keep her shielded from future toxic factors.

• Carcinogens defined — how do we know if something is toxic to the body?
  
• Common food preservatives that turn into carcinogens in the stomach.
• How a substance otherwise banned gets into commercial dog food.
  
• Why food processing can cause carcinogens to develop and stay in dog food.
• Asbestos is banned in our buildings, but it’s in our dogs. Learn how it gets there.
  
• How pharmaceuticals in our water supply are contributing to cancer rates.
• Why fluoride may be a dangerous risk for bone cancer development.
  
• Should you quit smoking? How second-hand smoke affects your best friend.
• How high voltage power lines might be changing your dog’s health.
  
• How the air your dog breathes could be filled with pollutants.
• Why "non-carcinogenic" substances can become toxic when combined.
  
• Why chronic inflammation can be a precursor to cancer development.
• Why a breed like the Golden Retriever has a higher risk (75%) of dying of cancer.
  
• The vaccination debate … how to decide when to vaccinate — and for what.
• Sunlight — friend or foe? It depends… find out how to handle fun in the sun.
  
• Fatty Acids — what they are and why your dog needs "good" fats.
• How vitamin deficiencies you don’t know about can set the stage for cancer.
  
• Unnatural sleep cycles and their role in cancer development.
• Stress and depression in dogs — and why your dog may be blue.
  

Combining the information in your head with the love in your heart… how to sort through the options and create a Full Spectrum Cancer Care plan.

So now you’ve got all this information — how do you decide what to do?

Dr. Dressler cannot consult every dog lover and their dog through the pages of this book. However, in this book he does show you how to analyze your own dog, your dog’s cancer, and your treatment options … and come to an informed decision about what you want to do next.

Information is power. And it only works when you put it into action.

That’s why with great compassion and care, Dr. Dressler helps you to:

• Understand the "normal" lifespan of your dog based on breed and body weight
  
• Understand your dog’s current quality of life, and what you can expect next.
• How to evaluate ahead of time if a treatment is likely to "work" for your dog.
  
• How to take your personality and your dog’s personality into account.
• What to do if you "still don’t know" exactly what course to take.
  
• Manage your emotions so you can keep a clear head and make good decisions
• How to build a "team approach" with your veterinarian so you work together
  
• Specific questions to ask your vet so you can "be the boss" and get empowered
• Why a second opinion should be part of your standard operating procedure when you get a cancer diagnosis — and how to ask your vet for one.
  
• How to bring others into your cancer making decisions so you get real support.
• How to find financial support from organizations that help with veterinary bills. (list is on page 45)
  

Dr. Dressler even provides a special chapter for the “dog hospice” that every loved best friend wishes for at the end of life. Even if your dog is years away from needing the care described in this chapter, Dr. Dressler offers calming, essential advice about how to:

• Know "when it’s time" for your dog and you to end your time together
• Set up a loving "dog hospice” so that your dog is as comfortable as possible
• How to say goodbye to your best friend, even when your heart is breaking
• What your dog would say to you "if she could speak English"

Why so much you’ll find online is left out of Dog Cancer Survival Guide.

There are hundreds of cancer supplements, treatments, and "cures" that you may have read or heard about.

If it was left out of Dr. Dressler’s Full Spectrum Cancer Care plan, here is why:

• There was no definite, documented data showing they work in living bodies, in real life, in the real world.
  
• There were possible side effects that could have a negative effect on your dog, which he believes would outweigh the benefit.
• The evidence for their effect was only provided by the people selling the product, not by an unbiased third party.
  
• The cost would make it only affordable for the wealthiest dog owners.

This excellent video from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) serves as a good reminder of how to decide what cancer treatments to use with your dog. Dr. Dressler always recommends bringing your veterinarian into your Full Spectrum Cancer Care planning, and expects you to consult with a licensed veterinarian on all aspects of your dog’s care.

Your vet might not love this book… at first

Dr. Dressler identifies himself as a very traditional veterinarian who takes a Full Spectrum Approach to Cancer. And because the information in this book is "news" to many traditional vets, you may feel resistance from your own over some of his recommendations.

Dr. Dressler certainly felt “resistance” when he first read about this stuff!

Dr. Dressler has backed up all of his strategies with actual scientific proof — or it didn’t make it into the book. The vast majority of vets are glad to get this new information. If yours isn’t… you might want to ask yourself why.

Joining with your vet to make a Full Spectrum Cancer Care plan produces the best possible care for your dog and makes use of every possible avenue of cancer treatment.

Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation contains everything you need to know right now if your dog has a cancer diagnosis.

This book is not a magic bullet. Dog Cancer Survival Guide is:

1. Comprehensive… you’ll find traditional treatments, cutting edge cancer research from the frontiers of laboratory science, vitamin and supplements that can help, mind-body therapies, diet plans, and hundreds of lifestyle recommendations.
2. Cutting edge… few vets are doing as much hands-on research into cutting edge treatments — with few or no side effects — as Dr. Dressler.
3. Written for dog lovers, good for vets… the language in this book is as direct and easy to understand as possible. However, if you want to share the information with your vet they will be able to get more of the "science" from the text for their professional consideration.
4. Balanced between logic and heart… Cancer is a tough subject, and the information in this book can be hard to read. Dr. Dressler’s compassionate approach and many tips for how to deal with stress help you to keep an even keel in potentially stormy seas.
5. Structured for step by step decision making… with a strong belief that research and understanding comes before decision making, Dr. Dressler structures the book to address the most pressing issues — your first conversations with your vet, getting a second opinion, and managing your overwhelm — up front. Then he moves through the material in a seamless way:
   1. How Cancer Works in the Body.
   2. What Could Have Caused this Cancer in Your Dog.
   3. Traditional Approaches to the Major Cancers.
   4. The Six Steps in the Full Spectrum Approach, including:
      1. Cutting Edge Supplements Few are Talking About
      2. Reducing Side Effects from Traditional Cancer Treatments
      3. Boosting Immunity
      4. Starting a Good Cancer Diet
      5. Increasing Quality of Life
      6. How to Make Good Quality Decisions About Cancer Care.
6. Empowers you to become your dog’s Primary Health Advocate… No one knows your dog like you do. No one — not Dr, Dressler, not your vet, not your mother, not your best friend — knows better than you do what should be done for your dog’s cancer. Right now you just lack the information you need. When you empower yourself with Dr. Dressler’s deeply researched, up-to-date information and use his stress management tools to keep your head clear, you are set up to make the best possible decision for your dog.

This is totally normal when you’re dealing with a cancer diagnosis. If you’re reading this, you probably have the time to review the book before you make any big choices. Empowering yourself with real, solid, honest information is the best thing you can do for your dog.

Decisions made under tremendous stress without thinking things through can be great "gut hunches" or can be terrible mistakes.

Make your choices — from the chemotherapy your vet recommends to the exotic natural remedy you find online — after you get Dog Cancer Survival Guide.

Ask a Marine in charge of a platoon what’s required to make a good decision under fire, and they would probably answer:

4. Quality information
5. Good training
6. Confidence that you will make the best decision possible.

If you take the time to go through Dog Cancer Survival Guide: Beyond Surgery, Chemotherapy & Radiation and then approach your dog’s cancer with the Full Spectrum Cancer Care tools, you will set yourself up for making the best choices for your dog.

And if you think we’re wrong, and you read through the book and get the email newsletter, join the community and post on the forums… and don’t feel it gives you the best possible, actionable information… and the tools you need to make confident choices about your dog’s cancer… we will give you 100% all your money back, and then some.
