The true, heartwarming story of a courageous terrier that conquered "incurable" cancer. Sparky was diagnosed with lymphoma at age six and given four to six weeks to live without treatment. With chemotherapy, his life might be extended by as much as one year. But his owners (the co-authors), inspired by the dog's indomitable spirit, decided to do all they could to save him. Sparky succeeded beyond all expectations. A special section, "If Your Dog Gets Cancer," is included at the end of the narrative, as well as a list of resources for caretakers of cancer-dogs.

In this compact, easy-to-understand volume, Clifton explains the very real risks involved every time a dog or cat gets a shot. The major veterinary associations now agree that vaccinations can trigger all sorts of maladies, from allergies to cancer. This guide encourages readers to learn about the risks and benefits of vaccinations. (Animals/Pets)
