<< One of the main researchers
at the University of Colorado in Cancer study made the statement that all cancer
is "heritable" although it may not be directly genetic.

I hope that this statement is "out of context" here.
Otherwise it is a very foolish one. Although I would suppose in a very broad
sense it might be true. Many Cancers are environmental and that is proven.
Studies as you probably already know, have been done in humans and diet can
effect the incidence of or even help to prevent, many types of Cancer. Why would
this not be true in dogs as well?
