Hi Vevvie
Sorry to hear about your dog. I am not an oncologist so I will leave the medical response to their expertise. As it is a weekend it might be a day or two before they can respond.
In the meantime there is some good material to read on the website on chemotherapy. My dog had chemotherapy (the photos on this page with him playing were mostly taken whilst on chemo)
http://www.caninecancer.org.au/vinca.html If used correctly and by an oncologist it is not the disaster most of us hear about all the time. Many, many older dogs do very well with cancer treatments. I share so many stories on our FB page. If you want to join that page there is a like button in the top right
Here is a couple of our links you might want to look through over the weekend so you can make the right decisions with the correct information for your dog.
http://www.caninecancer.org.au/typesofcancerathrub.html#BLADDERThere is a link there to TCC
http://www.caninecancer.org.au/treatment.html Good info here on chemo and other treatments.
You should get a response shortly to your question from one of the oncologists.
