Pet Cancer Prevention Vet™
Dr. Kendra Pope (DACVIM, CVA, CVCH, CVFT, CVTP) is a board-certified veterinary oncologist and integrative medicine specialist who has spent her career exploring a bigger question in cancer care: What can we do before cancer happens?
The Pet Cancer (Prevention) Vet brings together emerging research, integrative medicine, nutrition, lifestyle, early detection, and individualized testing to help pet parents better understand the factors that may influence cancer risk—and the practical steps they can take to support their pets’ health and longevity.
For pets already diagnosed with cancer, Dr. Pope explores an integrative approach to oncology that looks beyond the tumor itself, combining conventional cancer care with evidence-informed complementary therapies to support the whole patient, improve quality of life, and pursue the best possible outcomes.
The first 72 episodes of the original Pet Cancer Vet aired from 2013–2019 and focused on helping families navigate a cancer diagnosis.

Additional Treatments for Pit Bull With Lymphoma
#2062: Dr. Sue and Tracie speak to Helen in Winnetka, California, whose dog Sinatra is a five-year-old pit bull mix who has been diagnosed with lymphoma. Helen wants to know whether after the traditional CHOP protocol are there any other drugs or treatments she can look into? She’s so happy Sinatra has not had side affects from any of the drugs he has been given — which makes her even more determined not to lose hope and to keep on actively seeking ways for him to live up to Dr. Sue’s motto: Live longer, live well.
