Walk to fund canine cancer research

Dogs and their companion humans can walk Saturday to help fund research into canine cancer in Hopewell Junction in East Fishkill.

Mickey’s Mile for Canine Cancer Research walk will take place at 9 a.m. at the East Fishkill Community Center on Route 82. Sign-in is at 8 a.m.

There is a $15 minimum donation. All money will go to the Purdue Foundation at Purdue University for canine cancer research in West Lafayette, Ind.

Information gained from the study of cancer in animals will provide important information in the fight against cancer in humans.

All dogs must be on a leash. Treats and water will be provided for dogs and humans.
For information, e-mail Camille.
