Good News Day 21: Large-Scale Cancer Study of Golden Retrievers Holds Hope For All Dogs

In Dog Diseases Treated by Homeopathy (first published in 1863, before chemotherapy, radiation, biopsies and blood panels), author James Moore advised concerned dog owners on treating cancer: “An operation cannot remove the cancer, but it can remove the tumor, which causes much suffering; the knife is, therefore, merely palliative in its effect. Still, the disease, even then, is likely to return at a period more or less remote.”

Good News Day 12: Veterinarians With Big Hearts

Coming from many years of working in the veterinary field, I know many wonderful human beings who are veterinarians, technicians and assistants. We know it’s not all about just getting to hug puppies and kittens all day, and sometimes the number of terrible things you see happen to pets due to human ignorance or cruelty can be exhausting. Being able to reach out and connect with even just one animal that desperately needs it reminds you of why you do what you do in the first place. ~Tricia
