Breast Cancer Can Even Occur in Dogs

Did you know that dogs can get breast cancer?


My dear friend Julia Szabo, who has the pet column in the New York Post, covers the sad fact that yes, dogs can get breast cancer,too.


In her video, Dr. Andrew Kaplan, of City Veterinary Care, will tell you the facts.


There's good news in her too, getting her dog Lupa, (a pit bull she adopted from the ASPCA) tested prompts Julia to get a mammogram for the first time.


(Look for Yours Truly in the video.)


I'll cut to the chase. Lupa and Julia is A-OK.
