Anyone who's been following Luke and the Boys on their 2000 mile hike for canine cancer awareness surely knows about the upcoming – first ever – Canine Cancer Caucus. But we want everyone to know about this amazing event!

The Big Dog, Hudson and Murphy are on their way to Washington DC to lead the largest dog walk in history across the Potomac to the National Mall. On September 18th, 2009 they'll be gathering at the LBJ Grove in the Lady Bird Johnson Park at 10AM. There will be speakers, one one one time with legislators, and best of all … lots of dogs!

The official 2Dogs2000Miles.org Canine Cancer Caucus press release has complete details but here's a brief video to give you an idea about the magnitude of this special event…

The folks at the Guinness Book have been notified, and we're hoping this march breaks the world record for the largest dog walk. But we need your help! Please pass along this link or the press release to every pet lover, animal organization, local newspaper, shelter, rescue, or vet clinic you know.

If at all possible, please try to attend. So they know how many potty bags to have on hand, dog walkers are being asked to please register in advance. And if you can't be there, consider supporting the march with one of the commemorative Canine Cancer Caucus t-shirts for people, or for dogs! And above all, don't forget to Puppy Up!

That's so cool.  I've always been into animal issues and it makes me feel so good if their rights, health, and preservation information is put out there.  Since I only live a couple hours away from D.C. and my sisters live up there it's easy for me to go there every little while.  I will totally try to attend.  Thanks for letting us know about it.
