No. While veterinarians will treat dogs with cancer using chemotherapy, in general veterinarians do not allow dogs to have the side effects of chemotherapy that are tolerated in human medicine. If a dog starts to vomit, has diarrhea, becomes lethargy or withdrawn, the chemotherapy is reduced or stopped to preserve the dog's quality of life.

I've seen over a hundred dogs in chemotherapy and none have had any chemotherapy-related fur loss.
