MALIGNANT TUMOR - DOG


german shepherd dog had minor injury on the fore limb. it went unnoticed but dog started limping quite often and even radiograph showed no visible bone injury. After few months the limping was quite painful to dog. At that time radiograph showed some impressions over the joint and dog was put on pain killers. But this didn't help the dog. Finally biopsy was sent to the lab for histopathology and it confirmed the maligant mesenchymal carcinoma. Few more radiographs were done to find out the spread of cancer and prognosis at this stage. But it was too late to help the poor dog and pain was too much to him. Only good thing is that dog is full of life and want to fight with the end.

HOW TO GIVE TABLETS TO RABBIT

Giving oral medication -
Offer the tablet to your rabbit in the palm of your hand. Some take the pill easily this way, especially if the medication does not have a bad taste.
OR
Hide the whole tablet inside a piece of your rabbit's favorite food. A good food to use for hiding a pill is banana or apple.
OR
Grind up the tablet and mix the ground pill into apple sauce, banana, yogurt, or some vegetable. Put the food in a small dish and place it on the floor for your bunny to eat.
OR
Dissolve the tablet in water or fruit juice and then administer it to the rabbit using a syringe.
