Hello everyone - I'm wondering if any of you have ever dealt with Osteosarcoma in a large dog? My 170 lb female Great Dane (7 1/2) was diagnosed last week. The recommended treatment is amputation of her right front leg followed by chemo. Although one of my boxers had lymphoma, he was not a candidate for chemo (cardiomyopathy) so I have zero experience with chemo for dogs. I've read dozens of posts on the Great Dane forums - and they almost cancel each other out. As many people say amputate if only for pain relief as say don't because there is no good outcome no matter what you do. I'm wondering if anyone here has dealt with it? Thanks. Bobbi
