Ginger is officially graduating from her Melanoma vaccine series! ๐โ๏ธ
After undergoing a partial mandibulectomy to remove an oral melanoma, Ginger tackled every step of treatment like a champion - surgery, recovery, and now immunotherapy.
As we head into summer, Ginger's story is also a reminder to check your dog's mouth regularly. Oral tumors can be surprisingly easy to miss early on because many dogs continue eating and acting normally.
Things worth mentioning to your veterinarian:
-Bad breath that suddenly worsens
-Bleeding from the mouth
-Facial swelling
-Dropping food or difficulty chewing
-Pigmented or unusual oral masses
