"Dogs Born Today Have Immunity Against Cancer, Thanks to Human Advances"

Dogs born today are expected to never die from cancer, thanks to advances in human medicine that are being translated to veterinary medicine. Dogs and humans share a similar lived environment, making dogs a good model for studying human diseases. Genetic screening, improved diagnosis, and treatment options are leading to better outcomes for dogs with cancer. Blood tests and drugs developed for human medicine are also being used on dogs. While not all cancers may be curable within the next 15 years, significant progress is being made, and the overall outlook is optimistic. Dogs are also helping scientists gain insights into human tumors.
