Hi All,

Thanks for visiting the Morris Animal Foundation donation page. We lost our dog Cody last year to a cancer called Histiocytic Sarcoma. He had a brain tumor. He was only 8 1/2. It is an aggressive cancer and can occur in any breed; however, certain breeds are predisposed, including Golden Retrievers, Bernese Mountain dogs, and Rottweilers. We wanted to bring awareness these types of cancers and create this fundraising campaign in memory of our boy Cody. Below is more information about the Morris Animal Foundation and their research.

The Morris Animal Foundation Golden Retriever Lifetime Study is one of the largest, most comprehensive prospective canine health studies in the United States. The Study’s purpose is to identify the nutritional, environmental, lifestyle and genetic risk factors for cancer and other diseases in dogs. Each year, with the help of veterinarians and dog owners, the Foundation collects health, environmental and behavioral data on 3,000+ enrolled golden retrievers. Please help me support advancing the health of dogs everywhere by contributing to my fundraiser and sharing this page with your friends and family. Every dollar we raise will advance this great cause!

Ask how you can get involved, and together, we can make a difference in the lives of dogs!
