A treatment for melanoma in dogs is proving to be astoundingly successful (helping 40% of them and completely removing the tumor in 12.5%, as of January when this story first broke).  The Today show this morning said that it's being approved for more wide-scale use on dogs, and maybe the researchers could then try to find something similar for our cats who also suffer from the same malignancy...

...oh, and humans, too. ;-)

Did they make any mention of trying it in horses as well? All gray horses have melanoma, and it was heartbreaking when I had to retire Stoney because of the melanoma.
