Are there any side effects to cancer treatment in dogs? - Animal Hospital of Statesville
Some chemotherapy agents can cause changes in the blood parameters and decrease the immune system transiently. Those patients are monitored to make sure that their body is safe to have the chemo. That's one side effect, and you can get nausea with certain chemos, but we try to combat that ahead of time with anti-nausea agents.
