Is this the same vaccine that the Australian scientists are working on? This also mentions vitamin D for cancer treatment. How successful is that and is it used here.

The vaccine referred to on the web page you've mentioned is the Merial Oncept vaccine. It is available in Australia by directly importing it for a specific patient - it is the only one that has completed trials and been registered for use in dogs, and is therefore part of current therapy rather than a research project (though trials using it continue).
Vitamin D is interesting but there are no trials showing its usefulness yet.
