a friend has a dog who has just had a tumour removed....suspected osteosarcoma. im trying to help them find a specialist and wondered about the AHT. Can anyone recommend a specialist his hound could be referred to?

A friend had her Dane treated here, and was a great sucess, he lived to 8yrs, after being diagonosed at 3.

AHT is pretty near me, don't know any specific names but they have a big specialist canine oncology dept with a brill reputation.

I dont know what part of the country you are living but Davies vetinary specialist have avery good oncology unit and they are in hertfordshire.

most of the veterinary hospitals in the country will have an oncology unit with specialist vets and nurses.

My flatti was treated twice for tumors at Davies in Higham Gobian Hertfordshire. Brilliant kind vets, we also had to go to cambridge for successful radiotherapyI would certainly give them a ring. Ibelieve you may need a refferal frm your own vet. If you need their number pm me and I will send it. Good luck to your friends I hope it is a good outcome
