Canine Cancer walks

Cancer strikes over six million dogs in the U.S. each year and it is the number one killer of adult dogs. We are a group of dog lovers committed to doing our part to raise badly needed funds for research into Canine Cancer treatments, early detection methods, affordable effective treatments and ultimately a cure.

Celebrate your best friend or honor the memory of beloved dog(s) lost to cancer. This walk is one of a series of Canine Cancer walks across the country that have raised over $268,000 for canine cancer research in the last 20 months.

Grab your friends, family and co-workers and create a team! Register by February 17th to benefit from the online early registration fee of $30 for adults and $15 for kids 10 and under. Walk day registration is $35. The event includes a 1 mile walk, a canine health educational program and opportunity drawings. All walkers will receive bandannas for their dogs and awareness bracelets. Registration and check-in opens at 9 am and the Walk begins at 10 am. The educational speakers begin at 10:45 am. To register online or download the registration form please go to: www.CanineK.org
