Summary: The most precious help when you most need it
Review: I've got to know about Laurie's personal fight and book in the internet. I was desperate looking for information to help my boy friend's daughter, Sara, and her GSD, Alf, who was diagnosed Lymphoma at the age of 8 years old.
There is lot of information in the net, but truth is that when we desperately need accurate information there is none. Our Alf is gone, he is now in Rainbow Bridge, the Lymphoma was very aggressive and unfortunately I live in a Country were chemotherapy for animals is a Laugh...But even so, I've read the book and I strongly recommend it to all the persons who are trying to give their dogs a chance. I know the difficulties I've had to find the correct information, and this book is the most precious thing you'll have to help your dog...
The book is easy read, full of examples, gives you information about several treatments and ways to approach the disease, so that you may decide what is best for your dog; and best of all, it teaches you how to make life easier for your pet and how to help him fighting cancer.
This is a "must have" for all dog owners!
To all of you and your dogs, I wish all the best!

Summary: Compassionate and Informative Book
Review: The grim diagnosis of cancer for a beloved pet is shocking and devastating. When my Siberian Husky was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer, I spent the following three days on the Internet researching the specific type of cancer, treatment options, oncologists, diets, supplements and anything else that might help fight her prognosis. I had more questions than answers. I first saw Laurie's book at my oncologist's office. It confirmed my own research, but also offered a wealth of additional information. It is a compassionate and supportive book that offers hope and help. The topics are comprehensive and insightful and are meant to help you and your beloved companion combat a frightening disease. Laurie and Bullet's story is truly inspirational. She has great compassion for our four-legged best friends and for the people who love them. The book is truly a gift.

Summary: Who says there's no Magic Bullet?
Review: When my pooch was first diagnosed with lymphoma, I vainly searched local bookstores and the internet for a personal story of success at fighting canine cancer that combined traditional western veterinary medicine with non-traditional approaches. Most resources were either strongly in one or the other camp, with little discussion of how to blend a variety of approaches. Laurie's book was different, and a savior for us, as it carefully and non-judgementally presented options for integrating nutritional, herbal, homeopathic, and traditional approaches (like radiation, chemotherapy and surgery). Along the way she charms us with her and her Bullet's very personal and brave story. The combination of science, heart, humor, first-hand experience, straightforward information and cutting-edge references will be useful to anyone confronting this disease, and is an absolute must-have for companions of cancer pups.
