Can dog colitis (inflammation of the colon) lead to colon cancer?
Question by curiousdog: Can dog colitis (inflammation of the colon) lead to colon cancer?
Just some extra info about the dog:
She is a 9-year-old female, spayed, pure bred labrador.
Allergic to majority of dog foods, so the vet put her on a bland human diet of chicken, rice, carrots, celery, etc. with some olive oil and salmon oil. We also give her vitamins (for dogs) daily. She has been on this diet for 4 years now and it has helped her food and environmental allergies alot!

Well I don’t know if it causes it but dogs with colitis are at a higher risk for developing colon cancer.
