dogs lump

I am the one with the dog and his $1000 growth on his toe.We got fed up with the vets..in this economy they expect people to afford thousands of dollars of care? ...took him to a people doctor, who deals with cancer( not regular office hours believe me).Ok ready for this? Told us to buy Tea Tree Oil and put it on once a day.I bought it at a health food store whose owner was amazed that a doctor would remember that trick...the doctor also said most growths on dogs are not cancerous, but was glad to help us out..the charge for his off hours office visit...$40..let us hope this trick works...apparently it does on humans..but I will keep you updated.

That's really interesting. My beagle has a lump on her head, and my vet said the same thing. Almost not cancerous for sure, but if we wanted to remove it for cosmetic reasons, or if she keeps scratching at it, would cost like $800-$900. I'm going to have to give that tree oil a shot.

That is interesting.

Please let us know how your dog is doing with this Tea Tree Oil - I've never heard of it but am glad you shared the information.

I hope your dog responds well.
