my dog has very short hair and has a skin growth about 1 inch in diameter on her butt. I have not taken to vet because i do not want surgery or chemo or big bill. She has had it for about 3 years. It was small for the first two years but this year it has grown a bit. I have started soaking it with ammonia which she doesn't mind at all but was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions. I don't know if it is cancer, but this breed is prone to cancer from conversations I've had with other owners.

thanks for the reply...i found ammonia 2 b amazing 4 bee stings flea and mosqito bites so i did a search on skin lesions/ammonia and found YOU!! amazing site!! gonna tell everyone about it. i know its just experimental. once had a dog who had a lump--doc wanted to do surgery chemo etc. I went home and cried my eyes out and decided not to put him through it. He lived 10 more years and died at age 15!! Don't trust docs--they have too many bills to pay.are you saying i might mix in with her regular food or just pure pancreas?cow or chicken? Yes, she is 8yrs old and i'm willing to try the most non toxic ideas first.

The idea behind topical ammonia is that cancer metabolizes glucose very inefficiently and its poorly constructed circulation system keeps those acidic wastes around. The resulting acid envelope causes the cancer burning sensation and prevents enyzmes produced by the pancreas from being able to dissolve the tumor. Topical ammonia is absorbed by the skin, neutralizes the acid, and keeps the tumor alkaline for several hours so that pancreatic enzymes can do their work.

Do you think the ammonia is helping or is it too early to tell? The perfect complement to topical ammonia is to supplement pancreatin enzymes in the food and/or topically. You should be able to get pancreas at a butcher shop that your dog would perhaps enjoy raw. Give the dog meals rather than snacks to create time gaps where its own pancreatic enzymes can be used for cancer control rather than digestion. I would think that frequent applications of topical ammonia, at least twice a day, would be better than fewer.

I wish you the best with your dog and I hope you realize this is brainstorming rather than veterinary advice.
