I was going to say that LSA (lymph Sarcoma) in a dog is often treatable but 3yr is unusual in my experience...more like 8 mos...but chemo has come a long ways since I was really in practice.
I did some online research last night and found that Squamous Cell Ca is pretty common in some breeds. That's what my dog has now. Can be slow growing and does not met unless it's inside the rows of teeth... My Dusty has it just behind his upper left K9 tooth between cheek and gum. I have him on a human (and dog) NSAID meant for bladder CA and it seems to be slowing growth. I mention this just in case Vin's pooch might have the same. Not all Docs know about it. It's a specific NSAID and needs an Rx.. Piroxicam is the drug...
