Us Study On Chemicals And Cancer In Dogs

Interesting article on study on chemicals and cancer in dogs

Not a huge study, but it makes interesting reading - and is a bit reassuring about flea and tick preventatives.

That's very interesting, Tassie. Only this morning I was looking with disgust at the bindi's that seem to be appearing early this year. They covered our lawn last year, probably because the army worm got in & ate all the grass. We have the dreaded tunnel/funnel ants as well. I am very reluctant to spray with anything because of the dogs & have never sprayed, but the bindis are so bad, I have decided they have to go. . I was googling "bindis" & up came a solution using iron chelate & water sprayed on them, so I am going to give that ago this year. My house yard is about the size of yours

Interesting that it mentions pesticides but not herbicides. I wonder if they were part of the study.

Just tried to see the whole text, but it costs $41 - need to find someone who can see it for free :) - but yes - would be interesting - and to knwo if there are other studies.
