I started our 6-yo German Shepherd on a FenBen/ivermectin regiment 3 months ago when he was diagnosed with inoperable bone cancer in his hind leg. The vet said she could remove his affected rear leg - he actually uses it (but hobbles)… but that removing it wouldn’t stop the spread. He’s still actively eating, popping and being a relatively active canine. Thankfully our vet was open to trying this even tho she hadn’t heard of this protocol. I’m hoping that it’s at least slowed the spread down. I’m planning on taking him in for a follow-up x-ray to compare with his prior one. He’s also getting daily vitamin E drops on top of a handful of chicken he gets as a treat.
Our vet basically told us he had “months to live” if untreated. I didn’t want to put him through leg removal and she said chemo wouldn’t work. Here we are “months” later with no sign / or deference of him getting worse. I take that as a small victory. I’ll update once we get his next x-ray.
Omega three helped our Shepard with inflammation and pain a lot. They wanted to put him down because of his hips. He had 3 more happy years. 3 weeks in he was running like a pup again at 11 years old. Lost him last year at 15
Yes. 2 gel caps day Nordic. He loved them too. Whenever he would limp like durning certain times of year I would up it to three. His farts smelled like death but otherwise he was my sweet boy and happy boy no pain so worth it lol.

Happy your pup is still with you 🙏 & looking forward to your update. It’s going to be interesting to hear your vets input. Thanks for posting.
Thanks! I really hope were successful… I’d love to shake our vets narrative on treating cancers in our pets!

Wow 15 years! I love that you were able to have him for another 3 years, that’s amazing!
Did you give him the Omega 3 the entire time?

Thank fren! lol on the farts… our guy doesn’t fart! At least not in the house, maybe it’s a side effect tho, we’re gonna find out!
