No one wants to think about a member of their family getting cancer, but sadly this is an all too common occurrence. Lymphoma is a relatively common cancer accounting for 15-20% of new cancer diagnoses in dogs. Lymphoma attacks the lymph nodes and lymphatic system and may be localized to one region or spread throughout the entire body. Scheduling your annual and semi-annual wellness exams and lab screenings with your veterinarian are key to catching diseases early.
