National Canine Cancer Foundation



We lost our sweet baby Gizmo in October to a particularly vicious cancer. He's just has his third birthday.

We did everything we could, including two surgeries and several different medications.

I've entered several pictures of Gizmo in PawSpot's contest benefitting the National Canine Caner Foundation. It's free to enter, votes cost $2 each.

The money raised goes to help fund research for treatment and cures to canine cancer.

If you have time, please consider entering photos of your babies and soliciting votes. The more votes your photo gets, the more money goes to keeping all our fur babies healthy, happy and at home with us.

Aww, sorry to hear that. However, thanks for the awareness of the PawSpot site. We'll have to check it out.

We miss Gizmo. We will definitely check out that website. When was Gizmo's birthday? Pork & Brown just had their birthdays (Pork turned 3 and Brown turned 2). We wish Gizmo could be here to celebrate his birthday, too. We will cut a huge piece of our bithday cake for Gizmo.

OMG, that breaks my heart. These babies are so precious--I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I just read today in "Mystical Dogs" that the legend is that the first to great us when we cross over are our beloved pets who went first.
Love,
Kelly

What a wonderful face! I'm sure you miss him very much.
