My 7 year old pointer was recently diagnosed with a mast cell tumor on her ear. Two years ago she had a mast cell tumor removed from her side. It was Stage II with clean margins.
My vet is recommending removal of the tumor which I know is the right treatment. They are recommending removal of her whole ear. Can they remove only a portion of the ear or does the whole ear have to be removed?
Is there anything else I can be doing from a dietary standpoint (supplement or food) to help prevent these in the future?
I currently feed her a grain-free diet, alternating between Taste of the Wild and Pinnacle.
