A breakthrough in FDA-approved cancer treatment is changing how pet owners and their veterinarians handle tumors. Running around the yard, Bailey doesn't realize it, but she is at the forefront of veterinary medicine. So you could say the nine-year-old Boxer has become a poster pup for Stelfonta. "She had a small mole when we got her originally; it didn't look like much, it just looked like a mole and it started to grow," said owner Christina Baker. "It really didn't look that serious, but Dr. Smith looked at it and said that could be a tumor and we tested it. I didn't really think it was going to be cancer. I was really surprised."
