It began with a promise to raise awareness of canine cancer one mile, one city, and one person at time. Luke Robinson with his two dogs walked 2000 miles from Austin to Boston to fulfill the promise he made to his dog Malcolm who died from this horrible disease. 2 Million Dogs was formed on the belief that if 2 dogs can walk 2000 miles to bring awareness to cancer surely 2 million dogs can walk 2 miles. Our mission benefits the study of canine cancer and comparative oncology. Sign up now for the 2 Million Dogs Puppy Up! Walk in your area… there will never be another time like this to Puppy Up! against cancer. To learn more about 2 Million Dogs 2 Miles, please visit www.2milliondogs.org.
