I'm so sorry to hear about what you and your dog are going through. Dealing with a kidney tumor can be quite challenging, especially with the added complication of heart disease. Since surgery isn't an option, managing your dog's quality of life becomes the priority.
First, it's crucial to keep an eye on your dog's overall condition. Look out for signs of discomfort like increased lethargy, changes in appetite, vomiting, or any difficulty in urinating. These can signal changes in your dog's health that may need immediate attention.
At home, ensure your dog has a comfortable and stress-free environment. Encourage regular, gentle exercise if your vet agrees it’s safe, as this can help maintain muscle and joint health. Keep a close eye on your dog’s hydration and feed them a balanced diet, possibly with adjustments made for kidney and heart health. Your vet might recommend a specific diet to ease the burden on the kidneys and heart.
Regular check-ups will be essential. Watch for any signs of pain or distress, and if you observe anything out of the ordinary, it’s important to reach out to a vet promptly.
Please consider booking a video consult with us at Dial A Vet. We can discuss your dog's symptoms in more detail and help create a tailored care plan for your furry friend.

Real questions, vet reviewed answers and quality care.
It was so easy, I needed some eye drops for my dog and thinking about going to the vet on a weekend made me nervous about the cost involved. Dial A Vet was a much simpler, cheaper option with faster results. Within 10 minutes of the call, I had the medicine I needed for my dog without an expensive consultation.
A great fast efficient service with a qualified vet who was lovely and helpful. Thank you Samantha. I was able to sort my dog at 6pm on a Sunday night for $49 - amazing. Highly recommend.

What an amazing service, at my wits end as I knew my beautiful dog had an ear infection, could not get into the vet for 4 days. Never knew there was vets online until I googled. Within 15 minutes on a Sunday I was taking to beautiful Samantha who diagnosed and treated our Jasper. Only $49. She trusted that we knew our boy and gave us lots of advice. I will definitely be using dial a vet every time and sharing with all my friends and family. Absolutely fantastic kind caring service. 11/10
