Vet Stem Cell Treatments for Dogs

In 2007 we posted several articles on the benefits of stem cell research from a company called Vet Stem Regenerative Veterinary Medicine.

We would like to revisit vet stem to see what has transpired in the past years to help dogs overcome diseases and untimely deaths. More than 3,000 horses have received stem cell treatments

Vet Stem Cell Treatments for Dogs-Less Expensive than Surgery

The procedure involves taking some 2 tablespoons of fat tissue from the back of the dogs neck area and it is sent to Vet Stem in California who are the global leaders in veterinary stem cell research. Vet stem has literally performed stem cell transplantation in over 1,000 dogs with great success.

Upon receiving the fat tissue samples vet stem extracts and separates the Adult Stem Cells from the fat tissue. The very same day the stem cells are sent back to a participating veterinarian who then injects the millions of stem cells back into your dog’s bones and joints.  The results can be seen in weeks instead of months later as in surgical procedures.

Use Your Dogs Own Adult Stem Cells to Heal Diseases

If veterinarians “get this” why don’t doctors and government get this? The success stories are here, the trials have been studied -the results are very clearly positively and confirmed to show positive repaired diseases in dogs, and horses. It it works for animals and for humans also. Apparently your dog is getting better medical care than you are at this time.

Cats are healing also and trials are being conducted to heal feline kidney diseases and the Vet Stem Cell Company are on the forefront and are leaders who will only grown by leaps and bounds in the future -healing our pets and animals with this simple procedure.

The cost is far less than surgical intervention and the benefits of stem cell treatments over surgery are many and include:

No cutting of tissue, bones or or surgical errors.
No costs for general anethstetic or pain drugs -before during and after the procedure.
No waiting time to heal from surgery.
No apparatus to help mobility during healing is necessary.
No cost for anethstetic healing time is weeks instead of months.
Cost wise -stem cell treatments are far less than surgical intervention.

A few years ago the Vice President of the Muscular Dystrophy Association commented on the work underway by researchers at the University of Pittsburgh.  The use of stem cell treatments to relieve symptoms of muscular dystrophy in dogs holds promise in defeating the disease in children.  Muscular dystrophy is a muscle wasting disease that occurs in one of every 3,500 male births.

There is also promising results for dogs treated for melanoma by genetically engineering stem cells from bone marrow to destroy cancer proteins as studies held in Britain.  The adult stem cells known as mesenchymal stem cells can attack cancer cells while leaving health cells to thrive.  These studies have been in progress since 2006 and again are showing positive results.

For people and their pets adult stem cell research should be funded and put on the fast track to help relieve pain and suffering and save lives now -rather than later.
