TVT cancer is a cancer spread like an STD. Street dogs in Sri-Lanka are so prone to these as they are not neutered but the good news is, that it is entirely treatable!
We have spent weeks building trust with the two dogs below in order to get close to them. While we were doing this we realised the second dog had very young puppies!! We made the difficult decision to wait until the puppies were weaned from the mum before treatment, knowing the mum could potentially get too sick and the treatment not work.
Today we are so happy because we were able to treat them both with chemotherapy drugs!! They will be due another two treatments over the next few weeks. Please keep everything crossed that they will recover!!
While we had mum, we also vaccinated the puppies against rabies & treated them for fleas and worms. They will be due vaccines again in a few weeks time.
If you would like to donate towards any of their future treatments the bank information is listed on the main page information.
Thank you to all of you that donate regularly! Without your help, I would not be able to do this work!
