Puppy Up Foundation

Puppy Up Foundation This innovative research approach helps broaden our understanding of cancer, benefiting both people and their loyal canine companions.

The Puppy Up Foundation (formerly 2 Million Dogs) is America's first and only foundation dedicated to comparative oncology research to end cancer in pets and people. The Puppy Up Foundation is dedicated to supporting grants for comparative oncology research (which explores the shared aspects of cancer in both humans and dogs) education and awareness. Just like humans, dogs are naturally susceptibl

e to cancer, making this research crucial for advancements in treatment and prevention for both species. Through a series of Walks held nationwide, Puppy Up raises awareness and funds to support ongoing research and education in comparative oncology. These events bring together two-legged and four-legged friends in the fight for a cure. The funds raised by the Puppy Up Foundation help support critical research grants, while also raising awareness about cancer prevention, causes, and treatments for both humans and dogs. Your involvement is essential to the success of this event—and to the continued progress in our mission to find a cure. To learn more, visit www.puppyup.org.

Be the bridge that keeps our mission moving.

Like so many of us, PuppyUp is navigating a changing world where the costs of doing business—from venue rentals to shipping—continue to climb. But while costs are rising, our commitment to ending canine cancer hasn’t wavered.

Our PuppyUp Walks are the heartbeat of this community, but the logistical hurdles of hosting them have grown. We refuse to let these rising expenses slow down our progress in Early Detection education and life-saving research.

This is where you come in.

We are looking for partners to help us close the gap. A gift of just $25 today ensures that our research stays on track and our educational programs reach the pet parents who need them most.

Donate $25 today to help bridge the gap.

🎆🐾 Fireworks & Fur Babies: Keep Your Pets Safe! 🐾🎆

Be prepared!

While fireworks can be fun for us, they’re often frightening and stressful for our pets. As celebrations get loud, here are a few tips to help your furry friends stay safe and calm:

🔒 Keep them secure – Make sure your pets are indoors and in a safe, escape-proof room. Scared pets may try to run!

💡 Create a comfort zone – Use a cozy crate, calming music, or a favorite blanket or toy to ease anxiety.

🎧 Drown out the noise – White noise machines, fans, or soft music can help mask loud booms.

🆔 Check their tags & microchips – In case they do get out, proper ID helps bring them home faster.

🚫 Skip the party treats – Human food and alcohol can be harmful. Keep them out of reach.

🐶 Talk to your vet – If your pet has severe anxiety, ask your vet about safe calming options or medications.

Let’s keep our furry friends safe, calm, and comfortable this fireworks season! 💛
