1 in 4 Dogs Will Develop Cancer: Key Factors & Prevention🐾

Did you know that 1 in 4 dogs will develop cancer at some point in their lives? Some contributing factors and tips for prevention.

Genetic:
Inherited Susceptibility: certain breeds like Boxers, Golden Retrievers and Rottweilers are genetically predisposed to cancer.
Selective Breeding: breeding for specific traits can reduce genetic diversity and inadvertently promote cancer.

Lifespan:
Increased Longevity: dogs are living longer due to better care, increasing their risk of cancer as they age.

Environmental:
Exposure to Carcinogens: pesticides, herbicides, second-hand smoke and household chemicals can increase cancer risk.
Sun Exposure: light-coloured or thin-coated dogs are prone to skin cancers from prolonged sun exposure.

Hormonal Influences:
Spaying and Neutering: these procedures reduce some cancer risks but might increase others, such as osteosarcoma in certain breeds.

Immune System Function:
Age, chronic diseases and some medications can weaken a dog’s ability to fight cancer.

Mitigating Cancer Risk:
• Healthy Diet: provide balanced, high-quality food.
• Regular Exercise: keep your dog at a healthy weight.
• Minimise Exposure: avoid known carcinogens.
• Routine Vet Visits: regular check-ups for early detection.
• Sun Protection: protect light-skinned or thin-coated dogs from too much sun.

Understanding these factors helps us take proactive steps to reduce our pets' cancer risk and ensure they live healthier, happier lives. ❤️🐶
