Pet Cancer Vet #2040 (02-23-2015): Dog breeds that lose toes to cancer
Pet Cancer Vet (02-23-2015) #2040: Barbara in Brooklyn is a Giant schnauzer rescuer, who has had many dogs who have lost toes to cancer. One of her current Giants, Heiki, has now lost five toes to cancer, but she knows another Giant Schnauzer rescuer with a dog who lost 11 toes! Because of the genetic predisposition of this breed — as well as others such as Briards, Black Labs, black Poodles — Dr. Sue recommends everyone treat any toe infection as a possible cancer, which fits her motto, “See something do something!”
