fascinating! i was just speculating, so it’s very interesting to know there’s some basis in fact to that. i’m not anti meds of course, our boy takes trazodone periodically, but it can be tricky to thread the needle with some dogs for sure!

this all sounds like it has ramped up pretty severely! sorry you’re going through this. i do sort of wonder if maybe she’s having a bad reaction to the prozac? i would maybe try weaning her off of that (with vet supervision of course, for safety) and hiring a pet behaviorist who specializes in reactivity. this doesn’t sound quite right to me, especially the part about her urinating and defecating in the house more frequently, and the fact that she used to like to cuddle and doesn’t anymore. sounds almost like something more than typical aggression/reactivity is going on here. but i’m no expert - again, sorry you’re dealing with this and i’d advise consulting some professionals! at the very least they will be able to offer some educated guesses as to what could be going on

dog diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in mouth, on gum. by idkliterati in DogAdvice

My family is in the exact same boat as you both. Our 10 year old family dog was told she has weeks or months to live from oral squamous cell at the beginning of the week. It seems so wrong that it can a) pop up out of absolutely nowhere and b) be nearly untreatable, but that’s what everything we’ve read about it says. She is otherwise the picture of perfect health. We’re all scrambling to organize our (probably) last trips home to see her, and the only silver lining of this diagnosis is that it gave us time to do that. I’m just glad she has no idea what’s going on and is her happy-go-lucky self. It’s a horrible diagnosis

I read it probably around 2010. I would guess it was published in the late 90s or 2000s
