Zach,
Piper just turned nine in July, I’ve always fed her a fish based diet, I’ve had her on anti inflammatory supplements for the past two years due to bad environmental allergies that wreaked havoc on her skin causing infections and hair loss overall malaise last summer . My vet had us add extra good fats, and turmeric to her diet and advised Claritin and also prescribed Apoquel for the allergies. Unfortunately the oncologist advised that Apoquel will accelerate tumor growth. I know the extra good fats and turmeric helped with the inflammation and she didn’t have severe allergies this year , maybe that’s why the cancer remained localized and hadn’t spread. Thanks for the information, she starts her treatment tomorrow, we’ll hope for the best.
Take Care
Tim
