The National Cancer Institute predicts that based on current breast cancer incidence rates, about one out of every eight women born today will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some time during her life.  These are frightening statistics.  Thankfully due to increased awareness, improved diagnostics and treatment options, the survival rate for this group of diseases is improving.  But some members of our families, dogs and cats, are still dying needless from this potentially preventable disease.  As pet lovers what can we do?  If it is up to Dr. Marty Greer of Wisconsin, we will be sporting Pink Paws along our Pink ribbons.
