Can it help Osteosarcoma?

"Gary, my dog  got osteosarcoma in mid November. I have used your protocol for Lucy with some variations. Without you, he would be dead. Instead, he still has a  tumour on his leg but it's smaller and he is happy and mobile. He needs no pain meds. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. The photo is him a couple of days ago. His vet can't believe how well he is doing. He was given just a few weeks to live. We live in Ontario, Canada. Here is a link to our blog on his condition

Lucy never did radiation or chemo, she only did the Tippner Protocol. The Tippner Cancer Protocol combines immunotherapy and molecular cancer therapy using off the shelf readily available inexpensive natural substances. Here is her list. She is past 3 years after diagnosis by biopsy

I buy most of the stuff from Swanson Vitamins. They are cheaper, in capsules for dosage changes, and carry almost everything I give to Lucy except for the Chinese Herbs Stasis Breaker prescription, and the Low Dose Naltrexone prescription. Here is a $5 off coupon link I found

Xin Yi San for Mucous Mucus and What Snot

I got some new Chinese herbs, Xin Yi San a nasal decongestant,  to help relieve some of her mucous symptoms she has redeveloped with her nasal cancer. She is somewhat stuffy on her left side.  She had been in complete remission since 8/1/2011 on just the Tippner Protocol.
She starts Xin Yi San today 2 capsules per day 03/10/2014. I will note changes.


The chinese herbs she was given are below.  (She takes alot of other things as well)  These aren't regular herbs that you can purchase on the internet, they have to be prescribed by a licensed Chinese herbalist. Yup. 

Here is a lookup for vets in your area that use and prescribe them:

Frequently Used Dog Antibiotics

Frequently Used Dog Antibiotics 




With dozens of dog antibiotics available, it is important to understand how the medication works. Canine antibiotics come in a range of options, from chewable tablets to gel coated capsules, while treating different types of infections. Learn about the most commonly prescribed medications, including usual average doses and side effects.

Albon (Sulfadimethoxine)
Albon dog antibiotics come in liquid or tablets, and treat bacterial infections by preventing bacterium from multiplying. The typical dosage for Albon is 25 milligrams per pound of a dog's weight. Side effects include dry eyes, sulfa crystals collecting in the urine and loss of appetite. It's important to make sure your dog drinks plenty of water when taking Albon to prevent UTI. 

Baytril (Enrofloxacin)
Baytril dog antibiotics battle dog infections occurring in the ear, urinary tract, skin, intestines, liver and lungs. The dog antibiotics come in chewable tablets or dog ear antibiotic drops. Baytril works by tweaking the DNA of bacteria causing them to die off.
The proper dosage of Baytril is 2.27 milligrams per pound of a dog's weight. Avoid using Baytril if your puppy is still growing because some studies show Baytril damages cartilage by causing lesions. Side effects include dizziness, lethargy and loss of appetite.

Clavamox (Amoxycillin)
Clavamox is one of many brand names for amoxycillin. The dog antibiotics come in tablets and oral drops. Veterinarians frequently prescribe Clavamox for abscesses, cellulites and skin infections.
Clavamox works by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. Side effects include diarrhea, nausea and vomiting. A typical dose is 6.25 milligrams per pound of body weight given twice a day.

Keflex (Cephalexin)Keflex canine antibiotics come in gel caps or liquid. The liquid form mixes into your dog's water making it easy to give. The proper dosage is 10 to 15 milligrams per pound of a dog's weight twice a day. 
Dog infections of the bones, joints, lungs, skin and urinary tract frequently receive Cephalexin as a treatment. The broad-spectrum dog antibiotics prevent bacteria and fungi from reproducing. Common side effects include diarrhea and nausea. Dogs with allergies to penicillin should not take Keflex.

Sumycin (Tetracycline)
Dogs diagnosed with Lyme Disease or Rocky Mountain Fever usually receive Tetracycline gel caps. The medication blocks the protein bacteria need to multiply. The most common side effects involve tooth discoloration and impaired bone growth, but nausea and diarrhea can also occur.
Dairy products hamper the effectiveness of Tetracycline, so dogs should not have any dairy items or foods with calcium for at least two hours before and after their dosage. The proper dosage is nine milligrams per pound of body weight. 
Doxycycline is similar.

Terramycin (Oxytetracycline HCI)
Terramycin is an antibiotic ointment used to treat infections such as conjunctivitis and corneal ulcers. The dog medication stops bacteria from creating the proteins they need to multiply. California is the only state where you must have a prescription for Terramycin.
Apply Terramycin on the inner eyelid where it mixes with tears to spread it across the surface of the eye. The only side effects are blurred vision and stinging of the eye.

As you can see, all when taken orally, can make the dogs stomach sick. So sometimes it's just the antibiotic, not the cancer.
What can you do? I personally give with food, sometimes I give Pepcid, and between doses I give probiotics (good gut bacteria).

Prednisone and Cancer Uses

Vet Clinic Text

"Steroids, such as prednisone or prednisolone, can also be used to decrease
inflammation in the nose. For these medications, we start with high doses of the
medication for a short period to try to knock down the inflammation. It tends to work very well. If your dog
shows signs of improvement with the medication, we then slowly decrease the
dose of this medication as much as your dog tolerates. The exact taper is
dependent on how your dog is doing, but as long as your dog’s symptoms remain
improved, we usually decrease the dose by 25% every 2-3 weeks. Some dogs are
able to be completely weaned off of the steroids. Some dogs with cancer may require long-term
low levels of steroids. If this is the case, we try to keep the dose of the
medication as low as possible to hold back your dog’s symptoms. Steroids can
have several side effects. At higher doses, they will cause your dogs to urinate
and drink excessively. It is very important to keep plenty of water available at all
times. High dose will likely make your dog feel hungry but you do not need to
feed him or her more food than normal. Large breed dogs can sometimes
develop hind end weakness while on steroids. If you notice hind end weakness,
it is important to tell your veterinarian so that we can try to taper the medication
faster. Rarely, steroids can cause ulceration in the gastrointestinal tract, which
may lead to vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, blood in the stool, or black
tar-like stool. If you notice any of these symptoms it is important to notify your
veterinarian. Steroids cannot be stopped abruptly as a life-threatening reaction
(addisonian crisis) may result. Therefore, the dose of these medications should
not be changed except under the supervision of a veterinarian."

Sometimes you can just use the bursts of prednisone just when things are bad. Long term every single day use depresses the immune system. Something you don't want. Plus they need to pee alot. And while you will be glad they are eating again, they will bug you about eating.
