4 year old Yorkie has been diagnosed with bone cancer. He had minor ampution of his two left fingers on his left front paw along with the full removal of the tumor. This was followed by 2 rounds of localized chemo which came in a shot in liquid and turned into a solid after being given. On the third round of chemo, my mom had brought him in for me as I was away very briefly. He still had not been putting down the paw that had the cancer and amputation etc. Dr said he should have been. He took an xray of his chest as well and found that it has now spread to his lungs. I feel that there has to be something to extend his life a little bit longer even though we were told there is nothing else to do. He's four. It is so unfair. He's like a puppy still. Is there any natural food remedies we can use to help extend his life? Is there anything else we can do?
