I have a terrible dilemma, my toy poodle had a growth on her mouth which the vet thinks may be cancerous. The problem is if I elect to have it removed it is risky for my dog as she has liver problems and is 15 years old. If it’s left then it could grow and spread. What should I do?

We found the first growth in my 11yr old cat's mouth in September 2020, hanging down from the top of her mouth (bad breath, oozy, etc). We put her through surgery to remove it (and two teeth) as the vets thought it might be a benign inflammatory mass and it seemed to be healing. However, we're...

My 13 year old staffy was prescribed a steroid treatment, "Prednidale" after I had him at the vets for an increasingly frequent and severe cough. A mass on his lung was found by the x-ray which they think is cancerous given his age, but can't be sure without testing (which carries risk in...
