Hi Chip, I'm really sorry to hear about your dog. I don't know what sort of diet you have your dog on but something you can do to help fight the cancer is eliminating all excess carbohydrates from the diet. That means no grains, no root vegetables, etc. Of course this means you would have to stop feeding kibble as all kibbles are largely grain, in most cases about 60% or more. Grain is the last thing you want your dog to have even when there is no cancer. That would mean switching to a raw meat and bone based or at least home made diet free of all grains, potatoes, winter squash, carrots, fruit etc.
CS has proven to be helpful with many cancers, so giving your dog CS instead of water would also probably be a help. On the CSCats-Dogs list right now there is an ongoing thread about a couple of dogs suffering with bone cancer. The cancers described sound very similar to that which you describe. One woman is using CS IV via a catheter. AND, believe it or not, she's doing it under the care of a DVM who showed her how to inject the CS into the catheter!! It is very possible one of these people could offer you some helpful advice. The CSCats-Dogs list is at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CSCats-Dogs/ If you want more information on diets and dietary supplements for dogs you might want to look at http://www.b-naturals.com/sum98.htm IHTH and good luck in fighting this.
