Life isn't always about keeping up with the snoozles and the meaty eating...Its not easy being a dog.Human lifestyles have been imposed upon us and willingly or unwillingly, we compromise. We eat tasteless kibble from bowls, we spend all day waiting for our humans to return from where ever it is they go all day (why can't I join my human? I just don't get it!) and one out of every three dogs will develop cancer in their lifetime.
The National Canine Cancer Foundation has been established by some pretty awesome humans who want to help find answers where, now only questions exist. By granting hundreds of thousands of dollars in funds to humans who are working to research canine cancer, they hope to find information on treatment, diagnostic and preventative methods for taking care of me and my fellow four legged friends.
My mom, who started this blog, but is now too busy to keep it up, (grrr) has been invited to write for the NCCF blog. She is really excited to be able to share information about dogs and cancer. Apparently, this research doesn't only benefit dogs, like me. Leading researchers all agree that finding a cure for cancer in dogs will likely lead to a cure for humans.
Since we are already best friends, we just need to work together and dogs and humans can help each other to find a cure.
