Spot the Paw-sible Signs
Cancer can hide in plain sight, but these quick clues should get your radar barking:
- Lumps or bumps that don’t budge
- Sudden weight loss or appetite snooze
- Chronic cough or trouble breathing
- Wounds that won’t heal
- Limping, swelling, or odd bleeding
Since cancer tends to show up around age 8 in dogs, we recommend starting yearly screenings by age 7- or even earlier (around age 4) for large breeds, purebreds, or dogs with a family history.
