Dog Size and Cancer Risks

ByRoxanne Hawn

Maybe I’m more distracted after handing off our tiniest-ever foster puppy (Pavé) earlier this week, but this third cancer relative risk paper from Nationwide Pet Insurance is really something to wade through. It discusses dog size and cancer risks — overall as well as for several specific / common canine cancers (bone cancer, splenic cancer, liver cancer, lymphatic cancer, mammary cancer). This may require more than one post. I may do a video at some point, but let’s dig into at least some of it now. Scroll all the way down to see bonus photos and more info about tiny Pavé in case you missed him on our social media feeds.

These are the contacts in our neighborhood

ByRoxanne Hawn

Sing along with me — ye, of the Mr. Rogers generation. These are the contacts in our neighborhood … in our neighborhood … in our neigh-bor-hood. One of my made-up strategies for
getting Lilly used to performing agility in public settings is to use things we find on our walks (especially in town) as obstacles. I figure if I can get her to do various agility-like things while
other people and dogs are walking by, while cars are zooming past, that it may someday translate onto the training field or the competitive ring. So, here’s a photo tour of a …

  1. It is a great work because my pooch needs a nickname. A complete guideline from you cares my own dog.
    Thanks for this great article and traveling experience with the pooch. Here are an excellent blog post and amazing touring plan of different handicap accessible place.

  2. Most of our dogs have been rescued and adopted shelter mutts, so I’ve never had a registered purebred. I had no idea that you could register a name kinda like a domain name… weird to say the least. I mean what if we did that as humans. Nuts

  3. No fancy official names for our pups. But I do love the idea. Also those dog name patches are awesome. Might have to look into getting them.

  4. Great Knowledge!!! Now no one copy the name. Its maintain the uniqueness of your pet for 5 years. i will also follow it for my new puppy. Thanks Dear !!!!

  5. PS. My first pup was “Katie Scarlett of Tara” aka Kissy. Callie’s official name was “Sunshine Callie Tess” (named for her father and her maternal grandmother). Shadow’s “official” name is simply “Callie’s Shadow” because we got her to be Callie’s playmate and younger sister. As it turned out, it was a perfect name for her because she “shadowed” Callie everywhere from day one.

  6. They bought a registration name so no one else can use it in their own dogs’ names? That’s just plain selfish, IMO.

    Ducky is a Corgi mix, adopted from our local shelter, so I never tried to register her. But my three previous dogs, Shadow included, had/have “official” AKC names. No titles because I/we didn’t have the finances necessary for the classes or trials, and I wasn’t interested in showing them.
