Uncle John here: With our dogs, the vet does a simple needle biopsy and
looks at the sample under a microscope to determine if it is cancerous.

Most times these have turned out to be fatty tissue growths.

The only other way I can think of detecting cancer early in dogs is
through dowsing.

I wish I had a good answer and I keep looking for one.
