Genetics
& Breeding: What breeding protocols are being
practised around the world and what impact do in-breeding,
line-breeding and out-crossing play on genetic predisposition
to cancer?
Conventional
Medical Treatments: What therapy programs exist that
have shown to be effective in treating cancer and other auto-immune
diseases? What is the true reason our pets develop cancer?
What do we need to understand about the causes of cancer in
pets so that we can protect our pets from developing cancer?
Environment:
What environmental culprits contribute to the development
of cancer in our pets? What true effect does chemical spraying,
pesticides, herbicides, sun exposure, etc., have on our families?
Family
History: Is there a genetic predisposition within
family bloodlines that cause a higher incidence of cancer?
Immunology:
What can be done to keep our pets immune systems strong to
defend against the development of disease? What role does
immunity play in the prevention of disease?
Nutrition:
What role does diet play in the prevention of disease? Does
a nutritionally-poor commercial diet depress the immune system
and make our pets more susceptible to disease? What is optimal
nutrition to keep our pets strong and health?
Supplementation:
What supplements should our pets be receiving to keep them
strong? Does a commercial diet provide all of the daily requirements
or is supplementation essential?
Vaccination:
What do annual vaccinations to to our pet's immune system?
Is is necessary to routinely vaccinate all pets and what are
the long term effects of routine vaccinations?
Detection:
What are the early signs of impending disease in our pets?
What can be done to regularly check for potential disease
development? What are the early signs of cancer?
Conventional
Medicine: What currently exists to conventionally
treat cancer in pets? What are the effects of some of these
treatment programs? What other treatment programs not currently
being offered to pet owners should we be considering?
The
Kali's Wish Cancer Foundation is interested in contacting
individuals or groups in the veterinarian, breeder or genetic
communities who are currently conducting or interested in
conducting research for any of the above focus areas. Please
contact us for further information.
