Canine Health

Regular checks for lumps are crucial PharmAust is encouraging dog owners to check their dogs for unusual lumps and bumps under the skin that may be a sign of cancer.

November is National Pet Cancer Awareness Month

“This is something you should be doing on a regular basis,” said Dr Agnew. “The most noticeable symptom of lymphoma is swollen lymph nodes, which can be detected in several locations, including under the jaw, pre-scapular lymph nodes (when throat goes into the chest), under the armpits, inner thighs and right behind the knee.”

events. However, 20% of dogs can be expected to live for 2 years, but unfortunately, relapse can occur within six to 12 months of treatment.”

Lymphoma is a common and aggressive cancer diagnosed in dogs. Symptoms can include swellings (enlarged lymph nodes), lethargy, weight loss and loss of appetite.

“At the moment, there is no cure for B cell lymphoma. Studies show only 50% of dogs with B cell lymphoma will survive without treatment for around 30 days and the other half will mostly have severe progressive disease,” said veterinarian Dr Kim Agnew, who is the Principal Investigator of PharmAust’s anti-cancer drug trial for dogs with b cell lymphoma.

“Currently, the best indicated treatment option for canine lymphoma is chemotherapy, which comes with its own set of logistical challenges regarding access to treatment and management of adverse

How to check your dog safely for lumps and bumps

Working towards an alternative successful treatment for canine lymphoma, PharmAust is continuing recruitment of pet dogs in Australia, New Zealand and United States with untreated B cell lymphoma to finalise evaluation of a promising, newly formulated anti-cancer drug, Monepantel (MPL).

“MPL is already approved for veterinary use for a different indication and species, and PharmAust is aiming to repurpose MPL as a safe and effective cancer treatment,” said Dr Agnew.

PharmAust Monepantel anti-cancer drug trial

“We want to provide a canine lymphoma treatment option that can be administered daily by the owner and allow the dog to maintain an excellent quality of life during treatment. Survival expectations are anticipated to align to a range of single active chemotherapy programs in dogs,” he said.

In Australia, participating veterinary trial centres have been set up in New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia.

On a mission to find a treatment for canine lymphoma, biotech company PharmAust is reminding dog owners to check their dogs this National Pet Cancer Awareness Month for any unusual lumps under their skin that may be signs of cancer.

Close to 50% of dogs over the age of 10 will develop cancer and approximately 1 in 4 dogs will at some stage in their life develop cancer, according to the Vet Cancer Society.

• When your dog stands up, look under the tail and check around the back passage, then run your hands down the legs.

If you do find any lumps or bumps on your dog, particularly if they look sore or ulcerated, visit your vet!

During Phase 2a and Phase 2b trials, Monepantel demonstrated effective anti-cancer activity and minimal side effects, which supports continued development into Phase 3 registration trials, said Dr Agnew.

A timely reminder to check your dog for lumps and bumps

• Always praise your dog for being tolerant of being touched all over and offer rewards (food or praise) throughout the process.Your pooch will be happy to be petted on a regular basis and love the extra attention!

• Best way to check your dog’s body for lumps and bumps is to take a nose to tail approach • Using gentle pressure, start with feeling your dog’s head and run your hands around his face, paying particular attention to under the jaw and around the neck • Move your hands down the chest, over the arms and feel under the armpits.

Those for whom dog shows are like my first cup of coffee in the morning, must have been in Utopia in October! It was just dog show after dog show after dog show!

I expected a pile of results and photos for the column, but guess what….? Only two. So I am printing those two and some other results that I have picked up along the way, so, sorry but it won’t be much this month!

Pam Holmes sends me the result that her Borzoi CH Clovelly Bad Bad Bandit (Imp Aust) was awarded Reserve Best in show South Canterbury Kennel Assn on 17th September 2022. I am pretty sure that Nigel & Robynne Trainor’s ESS was Best in Show. The judge was Lavina Diamante.

At the recent two Taupo Kennel Assn Championship shows, I believe that the weather was foul. Phred Wong from Thailand awarded BIS to the Bouvier des Flandres, Ch Flandesfarm Amercn Playboy owned by Danielle Schouten

breeds shows, along with a multitude of Group & Specialty clubs. There were the usual grizzles but from what I saw on the live feed, it looked wonderful and I believe that the Auckland team are to be congratulated for the great effort – especially as I understand that the bottom line was a five figure profit!! Next years show(s) will also be in Auckland and hopefully we will have some judges from further afield.

At the other show, Tracie Edwards chose Jess Bello’s Samoyed, Sup Ch & Spec Gr Ch Zaminka Cat Amongst The Pigeons.

Coming up on 11/12/13 November is the NZ German Shepherd Dog National in Wellington with Carlos Rivera Gallardo from Guatemala judging.

PLEASE GSD folk – some results please.

At North Shore Kennel Assn, Chris Graham awarded BIS to Amanda Calman’s homebred Cocker Spaniel Ch Suedanka Shined My Halo. It was his third and as he already had the 50+ qualifying Challenge Certificates, he was able to claim his Grand Champion title. Well done Amanda.
