Your message apparently stayed in my mind for a month, altho I had no information to share then, I did find a reference this morning, while browsing at www.wellmark.com, under myhealth@wellmark, searching bladder cancer, an article from 4/30/04 from Healthday News , connecting a higher incidence of bladder cancer in Scottish terriers and relating it to use of lawn chemicals. I did not read the whole article, was under a time constraint, but was glad to find something that you may want to follow up on.......good luck....hjtk (message: want to discuss/same diagnosis)
