K9K Pet Cancer Awareness Walk Saturday
Any pet owner who has lost a dog to cancer knows the heartbreak it brings. To watch your beloved pet suffer is awful, such a feeling of helplessness. Or sometimes, like in Logan’s case, it sneaks up and you never even see it coming. Either way, losing a pet before their time is devastating.
This Saturday, October 24th you can join in the fight against cancer by participating in the K9K Pet Cancer Awareness Walk. Registration is only open through Oct. 22, so don’t delay!

Good luck on the Walk!!
(we’re in VA- or we would come…)
Tir and Lurcher will be looking down in appreciation!
This is a great cause, all you Yankee pups- get out there and walk!!
A great walk for a great cause. It’s time to find a cure far too many are being diagnosed and far too many have already paid the ultimite price.
Die cancer Die!!!!
I love that dog’s name: Meaty. I am going to have to go introduce myself. Maybe he has some leftovers??? What a great cause…don’t think I can get there from Nebraska though. Darn!
Great cause. We lost Sheba to liver cancer which crept upon her and took her suddenly in March this year. Then we lost Spike to sarcoma a little over a week ago on October 12th. He survived two months after his diagnosis. We know the heartbreak it brings. Mom says she would be there if it wasn’t so far away. Good luck and thanks for bringing the cause to everyone’s attention.
