Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, which is the network of vessels and organs responsible for filtering fluids and fighting infections. In affected dogs, white blood cells called lymphocytes multiply uncontrollably and accumulate in tissues like the lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow. This disrupts the normal function of the immune system and other vital organs.
Owners typically first notice firm, painless swelling in the lymph nodes, especially under the jaw, in front of the shoulders, or behind the knees. Other common signs include unexplained weight loss, lethargy, and decreased appetite, with symptoms usually appearing in middle-aged to older dogs.
While lymphoma is not curable, chemotherapy can often manage the disease and put it into temporary remission to maintain a good quality of life. This ongoing treatment requires regular veterinary visits and typically costs between €2,000 and €8,000.
