I wish I had found this site long ago.  My dog, Mister Milo, was diagnosed with bladder cancer 12 months ago.  Everyone knows the lifespan after diagnosis is limited and typically varies from 2-12 months.  Milo's tumor now is larger than his head.  He urinates spontaneously, sometimes in his bed, but has trouble dand pain when deficating.  I spoon feed him and monitor him constantly so I can wash his bedclothes and give him encouragement.  It's really hard watching him in pain....I'm not sure what to do.  He is on a diet of wet food only with a couple spoonfuls of yogurt a day.  He takes piroxicam which seems to help and a stool softener called colace.  Anyway, I'm just heartbroken and caring for him so actively is really taking it all out of me.  I'm not sure what the right thing to do is anymore...I just hate watching him suffer.

SO sorry to hear this news..I am in the sme Boat.  My dog, Daisy ws diagnosed with a 3/4inch tumor in her bladder 12/18/06 and I am taking aholistic approach (since 12/22 she seems to be doing better) go to:

google.com and search for Dr. Budwig..she lived to ve 95 yrs old who was a biochemist 6 nobel prize winner saving many lives with the cottage cheese and flaxoil combination..many testimonials.  I have not put daisy on the piroxicam yet to see if it shrinks this tumor..I am waiting until Feb for her next ultrasound.  She still takes a long time to urinate, but this mix may save her and et rid of this tumor..I don't want my dog to suffer!!!I  In addition to this mix I feed her broccoli with som very smal amount of brown rice with chicen broth, 1/2 patty f raw lamb (me vitamins in raw meat) and just started mixing in a multiviitmin with extra vitamin C..to boost the immune system. 

I wish you the best of luck..AT least ou got to the 12 month mark..maybe with my suggestion longer..Now with this mix I give this to her 3 times a day, sometimes 4 times..I ay increase it.  THEY KNOW you are trying to help them to.  I talk to Daisy and tell her it will make her tummy feel better. She looks forward to it.I even have My dog Missi on it once a day for her arthritus..Check out and all the best.

My almost 10year old basset hound named Trixie just got diagnosed with bladder cancer on 1-19-07.   I've been reading about the cottage cheese/flaxseed combination and I'm very interested.  Can someone give me an idea of how much of each to give her.  She's about 50lbs.  I'm also going to be using proxicam and anything else I can use to make her live longer.  She's my middle child and I love all my dogs very much.  If someone could e-mail me at --- Message edited by CancerCompass staff: for personal protection, email address removed.  Please review CancerCompass Member Guidelines at http://www.cancercompass.com/common/guidelines.html ----   I would appreciate it greatly for any information on this horrible disease.

Hi - I am sorry you had to "join the club" of those of us obsessed with trying to help our poor little friends. I have a Bichon Frise who weighs about 16 lbs. I give her 3 heaping tablespoons of lowfat organic cottage cheese mixed with1 tablespoon of Flaxsse oil (highest Lingon). I cannot tell you the improvement I have seen in Sugar since I started giving her this odd but valuable concoction.

My dog did not tolerate Piroxicam very well - instead she takes Previcox which she seems to be accepting without problem. We also give her Denamarin (which is the improved version of Deramax). Once in a while she will start acting oddly or urinating frequently. That's when we put her on an antibiotic. This really helps turn her around.

She seems very happy and acts like a puppy - at least for now. I really cherish every moment I have with my very loving Sugar. 

I hope your dog is doing well.
