PRAISE FROM VETERINARIANS, AUTHORS & BOOK REVIEWERS
"The future is upon us and this ground-breaking book is a vital cornerstone. In dealing with cancer, our worst illness, this Survival Guide is educational, logical, expansive, embracing, honest and so needed."
-Dr. Marty Goldstein,
DVMHolistic veterinarian and Host, Ask Martha Stewart’s Vet on Sirius Radio
"The message of this book jumps off the written page and into the heart of every reader, and will become the at home bible for cancer care of dogs. The authors have given you a sensible and systematic approach that practicing veterinarians will cherish. I found the book inspiring and, clearly, it will become part of my daily approach to cancer therapy for my own patients."
-Dr. Robert B. Cohen, VMD
Bay Street Animal Hospital, New York
"I wish that I had had The Dog Cancer Survival Guide when my dearly beloved Flat-coated Retriever, Odin, contracted cancer. It would have provided me alternative courses of action, as well as some well needed "reality checks" which were not available from conversations with my veterinarian. It should be on every dog owner’s book shelf--just in case..."
-Dr. Stanley Coren, PhD, FRSC
author of many books, including Born to Bark
"A comprehensive guide that distills both alternative and allopathic cancer treatments in dogs...With the overwhelming amount of conflicting information about cancer prevention and treatment, this book provides a pet owner with an easy to follow approach to one of the most serious diseases in animals."
-Dr. Barbara Royal, DVM
The Royal Treatment Veterinary Center, Oprah Winfrey’s Chicago veterinarian
"Picking up The Dog Cancer Survival Guide is anything but a downer it's an 'empowerer.' It will make you feel like the best medical advocate for your dog. It covers canine cancer topics to an unprecedented depth and breadth from emotional coping strategies to prevention-in plain English.Read this book, and you will understand cancer stages, treatment options, and types, and much more. If you have just had the dreaded news, pick up a copy and it will guide the decisions your dog trusts you to make."
-Laure-Anne Viselé

"Comprehensive, informative, helpful, even hopeful, this is a must-have book for anyone whose dog is having a cancer experience. I haven't finished reading it yet ... it's almost 500 pages ... and already I'm convinced of its value. The book starts off with the questions most of us have, like, "Why didn't my vet catch this earlier?" "What causes cancer?" "What are the different kinds of canine cancer (there are 12) and why do they matter as different kinds?" and "How can I truly evaluate my dog's chances?"
Written by two veterinarians, Damian Dressler and Susan Ettinger, the book introduces The Full Spectrum Approach, which comprises both traditional and alternative treatment modalities. Chemotherapeutics, anesthetics, antibiotics and other drugs are discussed along with herbal, diet, and nutrition supplements. He also discusses how to deal with the emotional and other issues including the stress in the human family.
Since I (this reviewer) personally am a STRONG proponent of providing the healthiest possible diet, exercise, and emotional balance in supporting our animal friends' wellness, I am happy to read the Drs recommend and support that same attention.
A drawback is that Dr. Dressler apparently has a product he offers and wants to "hawk" through this book, giving it an entire chapter. But the other information is so valuable, I can over look that "sell"."

The Dog Cancer Survival Guide Full Spectrum Treatments to Optimize Your Dog Life Quality and Longevity edition by Demian Dressler Susan Ettinger Molly Jacobson Crafts Hobbies Home eBooks Reviews
- I bought this as an e-book in August 2016 after my favourite dog, Dakota, an eight year old Rottweiler, lost her front right leg to Osteo sarcoma. I was told it was end stage and she had less than two months to live. Almost 17 months later she is alive and well, with NO indication of spread to another limb or her lungs. We give her the Doxycycline once a day and feed fresh meat and tuna fish canned in spring water, rice, fruit and vegetables (particularly high antioxidant ones like blueberries) and have never given chemo. I am happy to talk via email to anyone fighting this scourge with their dog, and can supply photos of her at all stages if you wish. My previous case didn't fare nearly so well, and Australian Vets are, in my limited experience, quite fatalistic - NO help and NO constructive advice.
- While the book does give some practical advice about diet and supplements, I felt like it also had a lot of filler. It's one thing, for example, to explain that dogs are sensitive to their owners' emotional state, so keeping a calm, positive attitude is genuinely beneficial to the dog. But two chapters devoted to mental health exercises seems outside the veterinarian's purview, and probably not what people were looking for in advice about their sick dogs. Similarly, plenty of real estate is consumed by comment boxes with readers'/users' rave reviews. (Personally, I find ongoing sales pitches for something I've already purchased a little tiresome.)
The frequent references to products available through the authors' online store serve to remind that, along with their expertise and good intentions (which I've no reason to question), they've also got a business interest beyond just selling this book. I won't offer an opinion on their proprietary "Apocaps" supplement or its efficacy, because I'm not a veterinarian and can't say whether it's scientifically valid or empirically helpful. It's worth noting, though, that the book pushes these very expensive supplements as an important, ongoing part of treating your dog's cancer. Since they're only sold in 90 cap bottles, with no bulk discount nor a large-breed formulation (dogs over 60lbs are supposed to take 9 caps/day!), you'd be spending hundreds of additional dollars on the authors' products if you have a dog that's lucky enough to survive for six months or more....thousands if it happens to be a bigger dog.
OF COURSE we're all willing to do just about anything to help our beloved companions when they're sick. If nothing else, I think the healthier, home-prepared diet prescribed in the book can do wonders for many dogs. For the diet and (general) supplement advice alone, I'd say the book is worth it. Whether you want to buy the authors' other products, or practice their mental health techniques, is secondary to that. - I don't know how I would have managed dealing with my sweet dog's cancer diagnosis without the assistance of this book. There were many practical suggestions (for example, take photos of your dog even when he/she is not feeling well). This book made dealing with the sickness, and finally death, of my best friend a bit easier. Although I miss her every day, I know that her vets and I gave her the best care we could, and I have no regrets about her treatment. That was one of the best themes of this book - do things now so you will have no regrets later. This is an excellent book to help you get through the pain and sadness of canine cancer.

But the other information is so valuable, I can over look that "sell". - This is an outstanding book. My dog lost a front leg to osteosarcoma a year and a half ago. I wish I'd had the book then, and I recommend it to all dog owners facing this difficult diagnosis with their pet. The book is packed with everything I could ever want to know and even more--from different cancers, treatments, causes, medications, supplements, and diet. It even suggests conversations to have with your pet.
As someone who works in the pharmaceutical industry and wants proof of efficacy and safety, I really appreciate that the recommendations are founded in science and research.
I'm still pouring over the pages of this book, and still learning and appreciating it--and the two veterinary authors--again and again. - This is a very informative book -- unfortunately I found this book a little too late, but did utilize some of the information to make him more comfortable through the process. Am glad I now have this on hand should I have this problem with another pet. As everyone else I love my pets and it is never too early to start following some of the advice in this book to head of any problem -- I also give my dogs turmeric now as well. If your beloved pet is ill, my heart goes out to you, this book will give you direction and hope. God bless!
