Re: [rawfeeding] cancer rates...my experience

Hi Tracy,

I honestly cannot tell you if there is any scientific evidence showing that Cancer rates are lower in raw-fed dogs, but I can tell you my own personal experience which leaves me convinced that switiching was the best thing I have ever done for my dogs.
My 12 year old greyhound has lived with a nasal tumour (I was told by the vet college in Ontario that it was a histiocytic sarcoma) for 6 years. I had it biopsied at the Ontario Veterinary College, along with various tests to determine it's invasiveness. After ALOT of $$$ spent, I was told to just leave it. There was no way to remove it, and scraping it down would likely cause it to spread. So for 6 years, my dog lived with a tumour which prevented her from breathing through her nose. She snored at night, and had a heck of a time in the summer with the poor air quality in our area. As well, the tumour repeately broke open and then scabbed over...I'm talking constantly for at least 3 years. Then, I found raw. I started her on raw in October, and miraculously her the scab on her tumour healed over. By December the tumour size had started to regress and she started breathing better. Now, 8 months later the tumour is no longer noticable and she can breathe
normally. No more snoring, no more breathing problems at all! I know that some may think this is a coincidence, and I have read that these tumours can spontaneously regress, but I am convinced it is diet related. I thought that her breathing impairment would be the eventual death of her, but now I am thinking that down the road, it will just be old age. :)

Just my experience, but I am convinced that this new diet is what saved my dog from Cancer!

From mastiff group I am in, it seems like cancer is hitting mastiffs
left and right so I was just curious if feeding raw helps.

Thanks
