Frequently Asked Questions About Dogs with Cancer

Can you help with cancer treatment funding?

Unfortunately, our mission statement does not allow us to fund individual cancer treatments, but we do have access to options that may work for you. We have put together two blog listings on our website to assist those in need of funding.  Please visit 7 Fundraisers to Help Pay for Dog Cancer Treatment Cost – #helpdogs (wearethecure.org) for tips on fundraising ideas.  Please visit Financial Support for Your Dog’s Fight to Beat Cancer – The National Canine Cancer Foundation (wearethecure.org) for possible financial support options. We hope this information helps.

My dog has cancer, what do I do next?
Now you’ve received news no pet owner wants to hear. Your dog has cancer.  Now what?  Where do you go from here?  Your dog’s veterinarian will usually talk to you about the options they may have for your dog if experienced. Many times, it’s a good idea to receive a referral to a specialist for further information and diagnostic testing.  It’s very important to research the type of cancer your dog is diagnosed with and see what possible treatments plans are out there for that type of cancer. This is where “Information Overload” can come into play.  There’s so much available on the internet these days that it can become overwhelming.  Here is a great article on our blog to help walk you through researching and finding help with the next steps.
