A Collaboration that Spans 6,000 Miles
Two veterinarians, one from Hawaii who is known internationally as “the dog cancer vet” and one from New York who is a celebrated veterinary oncologist, collaborated to create this definitive book for dog lovers coping with a dog cancer diagnosis. Their collaboration spans an ocean and a continent, and together they offer dog lovers the Full Spectrum of cancer treatments.
Demian Dressler, DVM
Dr. Dressler is internationally recognized as "the dog cancer vet" because of his innovations in the field of dog cancer management, and the popularity of his blog, DogCancerBlog.com. The owner of South Shore Veterinary Care, a full-service veterinary hospital in Maui, Hawaii, he studied Animal Physiology and received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of California at Davis before earning his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Cornell University.
Dr. Dressler consults both dog lovers and veterinary professionals, and is sought after as a speaker on topics ranging from the links between lifestyle choices and disease, nutrition and cancer, and animal ethics.
Dr. Dressler is the co-founder of Functional Nutriments, LLC, a nutraceutical company, and is the inventor of Apocaps, the first clinical apoptogen formula.
He is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association, the Hawaii Veterinary Medical Association, the American Association of Avian Veterinarians, the National Animal Supplement Council and CORE.

Reviews & True Tails
Eighteen Months (and Counting) Without Spending $10,000
“The radiation oncologist that we saw after the tumor was removed suggested five weeks of radiation, for five days a week, all for the “small price” of $10,000! They only did the treatments between 8am and noon, making it virtually impossible for anyone who holds a job, but you could leave your dog there for the day for an additional charge of $35per day!! I was beside myself, but I also just wanted it all to go away, so initially, I was willing to pay. However, the more I thought about what that would be like for Yoda, I couldn't bring myself to do that. I thought, if his days are indeed numbered, I don't want to burn his little leg so that he can't run and chase bunnies and squirrels and deer. It was about the quality of his life. I had to find an alternative, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. The radiation oncologist and his vet told me that if I didn't have the treatment done, his tumor would grow back in three to six months. Well it has been one year and six months and the growth hasn't come back! Certainly, he is aging and isn't as agile and playful as he was when he was a puppy, but his 10th birthday is April 30th and I couldn't be more happy! Ever since I adopted him (three days prior to his first birthday!) he has had a steak for his birthday. This year I may make it a filet mignon! THANK YOU for your book, because it gave me the support, strength and encouragement I needed to turn this entire situation from doom-and-gloom to complete possibility for something different.”
- Lori, Bethesda, Maryland
Took Me by the Hand ... and Became My “Bible”
“I read the Dog Cancer Survivor guide fervently. It has become my "bible" in taking care of my dog. This book has helped not only my dog feel better, but me, too!!! Any dog lover who is facing cancer in a beloved dog truly needs to read and devour the information in the Dog Cancer Survival Guide. This amazing book "took me by the hand" and has given me avenues that I never would have known about otherwise. I cannot recommend this amazing book enough or sing it's praises loud enough!!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Dr. Dressler!!”
- Cynthia McKinnon, Sanford, Florida
Helped Me Make Better Decisions: Worth Every Penny
“This book was extremely helpful to me. Even if it had not helped extend Apollo's life - which I am convinced it did as we were given maybe 6 months and we got 18 months - it explains things that you didn't hear at your appointment or were too overwhelmed to absorb. It helped me understand how canine cancer works and what to expect. This also prepared me for Apollo's appointments because I was able to ask educated questions and feel that I was a part of his healthcare team and not just his advocate. This book helped me make better decisions for Apollo so that we could preserve his quality of life for as long as possible. There are a lot of sad truths in this book that as a dog owner suffering from cancer, you don't really want to read ... but they are helpful. This book was worth every penny and I would (and have) recommended it to anyone who has a dog diagnosed with cancer.”
- Sandy Miller, Palo, Iowa
Even the Vet Thinks “We Beat This”
“My dog is a beagle named Gordon. We rescued him in 2000; we don't know how old he was at the time. In September of 2009 he suddenly got very sick. "Critically ill" my vet said. He ended up having a splenectomy. Lab results of the biopsy: hemangiosarcoma. Median life expectancy: 3-6 months. I asked the vet every question I could hoping there was a sliver of hope. Could the lab results be wrong? Could the splenectomy have removed all the cancer cells? Has a dog ever beat it? Our family agreed we didn't want to put him through any chemo or radiation. Well, a few weeks later I had Dr. Dressler's book in my hand and was following his Full Spectrum cancer care. I was cautiously optimistic. It's been 18 months since his surgery and he's doing great. The vet has even said that he "thinks we beat this." I've made some adjustments accordingly, but I still make Gordon's food and use the supplements according to Dr. Dressler's recommendation. I credit Dr. Dressler and his research and his book every bit as much as my vet and his surgery for saving Gordon's life.”
- Kim Gau, Stow, Ohio
No Regrets
“When I heard the diagnosis that my dog had cancer I had no idea where to start, what to do. After taking some time to contemplate what was in front of us, I realized I needed more than just "medical" language, more than just a clinical approach. I needed a game plan for us and for our dog. I know her and love her and needed to make the right choices. The bottom line for me was "no regrets". I needed to make sure I understood the range of alternatives available, that I was making choices that were "right" given all the circumstances and that I would have peace whatever the outcome. The Dog Cancer Survival Guide gave me a starting place, empowered me to ask questions, push for alternatives, challenge the status quo and change the landscape. Whatever happens now, there will be no regrets on my part.”
- Valerie Sachs, Pepper Pike, OH
Imagine looking back at this time in your life, five years from now, and having no regrets.
