San Diego, CA – The San Diego Humane Society’s medical team hosted a “pawty” Friday for former stray dog Phoenix who has now been cancer-free for one year.
Four-year-old Phoenix, a St. Bernard and German shepherd mix, is considered “near and dear to the hearts of many staff at San Diego Humane Society.”
Although the condition is serious if left untreated, veterinarians determined Phoenix’s prognosis would be good with Vincristine chemotherapy. Phoenix had received 13 treatments by January 2021.
