Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a rare but aggressive cancer of the blood and bone marrow in dogs. While most breeders and families will never encounter it, knowing the early warning signs โ such as sudden fatigue, pale gums, unexplained bruising, or persistent fevers โ can help ensure prompt veterinary care.
