Uniting Pet and Human Research for a Cure®

At Animal Cancer Foundation ("ACF") a 501(c)(3) organization, we are singularly focused on selecting the best early-stage comparative oncology research to improve cancer outcomes for people and pets. At ACF, we believe that comparative oncology is the most under-utilized and most promising research model to increase knowledge of cancer as a disease, allo

w development of basic science data that warrants additional investment from large funders, and catalyzes successful development of new therapies for both veterinary and human patients. We provide research grants to enable comparative oncologists to build scientific evidence, conduct robust clinical trials, and generate cancer genomic datasets to integrate into the human cancer drug development pipeline. We ensure through rigorous grant-funding parameters that ACF funded research is best-in-field early development that will be poised to attract government and industry funding and encourage open share of discovery with all researchers.

The numbers are difficult to ignore.

1 in 4 dogs and 1 in 5 cats will be diagnosed with cancer, and for senior dogs, that number rises even higher. These statistics represent beloved companions, worried families, and the growing need for continued research and education.

At Animal Cancer Foundation, our mission is to support groundbreaking research, increase awareness, and provide trusted educational resources that help families and veterinarians navigate cancer diagnoses with hope and knowledge.

Together, we can continue working toward better diagnostics, treatments, and brighter futures for pets and people alike. 🐾

If your pet has been acting differently lately, don’t ignore the signs. 🐾

Changes in behavior, unexplained weight loss, lumps, vomiting, swelling, and other symptoms may be worth discussing with your veterinarian.

Knowing what to look for can help pet owners take action earlier — because our pets depend on us to notice when something feels off.

Behind every breakthrough is a community willing to help move research forward.

At Animal Cancer Foundation, sponsors play an important role in advancing comparative oncology research focused on improving outcomes for both pets and people.

Partnerships like these help support innovation, strengthen community impact, and create meaningful opportunities for businesses to be part of something bigger than themselves.

Because progress in cancer research happens when people, organizations, and communities work together. 💛

For so many families, pets are more than companions — they’re family.

Cancer impacts millions of people and animals every year, but continued advances in research are helping create hope for earlier detection, better treatments, and improved outcomes for both pets and people.

Animal Cancer Foundation continues working to support comparative oncology research, education, and awareness efforts that help strengthen the connection between veterinary and human medicine.

Every breakthrough starts with people who believe progress is possible. ❤️🐾

Cancer impacts far too many families — including the pets we love most. 🐾

Animal Cancer Foundation supports groundbreaking comparative oncology research focused on advancing earlier detection, improving treatments, and driving breakthroughs that can help both pets and people.

This May, DogStar Roasters is supporting that mission by donating 20% of net profits from all coffee sales to ACF.

They’re also offering 15% off their fan-favorite roast, Pitty Party ☕

This is the LAST WEEK to take advantage of the offer and help fund research bringing hope to pets and families everywhere.

Cancer in pets is more common than many people realize — and sometimes the signs are easy to miss.

Changes in appetite, energy, breathing, mobility, or behavior may seem small at first, but paying attention and acting early can make a meaningful difference for the pets we love.

One of the most important lessons in pet cancer awareness is that no family should feel like they have to navigate a diagnosis alone. Education, trusted resources, research, and open conversations help pet parents feel more informed and supported every step of the way.

At ACF, we’re committed to advancing comparative oncology research that helps improve outcomes for pets while also contributing to breakthroughs that may benefit people too.

We hope this post encourages more awareness, more conversations, and more compassion for the animals and families affected by cancer every day. 🐾

Most of us know someone, human or animal, whose life has been touched by cancer.

What many people don’t realize is that cancer research in pets can also help advance treatments for people. The breakthroughs happening in veterinary oncology don’t just help dogs and cats live longer, healthier lives — they can contribute to discoveries that benefit entire families and communities.

That’s why the work of Animal Cancer Foundation matters right here in Port Washington and beyond. It’s about giving hope to pet owners, supporting life-saving research, and helping create a future where better treatments are possible for everyone.

We hope this Q&A helps shine a light on the connection between animal and human cancer research — and why continued awareness and support matter so much. 💙
