It is heart wrenching to watch him go through all of the treatment. I want to completely stop all weed killer and pesticide use in our lawn, but have to convince my husband, even though his son is going through all this. Why dont we get it??? Why dont we err on the side of caution??? How much more proof do we need?? Struggling in Nebraska

As a boadly outspoken 4 legged dog…my pleas to the local media: including a local radion statio, several newspapers, and local government officicals to understand the link between canine cancers and the use of common yard pesticides were ignored. Even when I lifted my paw and presented this information pertaining to young children and leukemia…my barks fell on deaf ears. It’s too bad, I have had cancerous tumors removed twice and I am suspicious! arent you?
