Alternative Medicine for Pets/mouth tumor in my dog

Question
Silva,
I've read your response to Rachel regarding the "possible mouth tumor in my dog" (from 11/23/07). Could you please give me instructions on using Maritime Pine Bark Extract for a dog. My dog weighs 60lbs. He's suspected for some kind of skin related lymphoma. I would appreciate any other your suggestions.
Thank you so much,
Olga

Answer
Hi Olga,
I am sorry to hear your dog is not well.  Maritime Pine Bark can be administered at 5-10 drops, twice per day for maintenance purposes, and at double that dose during cancer (and other) treatments.
Robert McDowell makes some of the best herbal products for dogs and has many cancer blends available.  You can look at his website:  http://www.herbal-treatments.com
He also makes to order if you can not find what you are looking for on his site.
I hope this is helpful.
Kind regards,
Silva.
