What have you done today to make a difference with Canine Cancer??? Here's something easy!

In honor of Charley (4 Year, 3 Month Bone Cancer Warrior) and all of the Canine Cancer Warriors who are currently fighting the biggest battle of their life and in memory of those who have earned their angel wings and made their journey to Rainbow Bridge, please consider buying one of these super cool CANINE CANCER WARRIOR tees or hoodies!  

This past Sunday night I started a campaign on Teespring called CANINE CANCER WARRIORS to raise money for Bone Cancer Dogs, Inc. to help fund ongoing clinical trials and research.  100% of the profits will be donated to Bone Cancer Dogs, Inc. help fund canine cancer ongoing trials and research and it's been donation verified too!  Bone Cancer Dogs, Inc. has already funded 3 clinical trials.  

Human cancer trials are first done on dogs because dog’s get the same cancers as we do and a dog’s system responds to cancer the same way ours does!  Many of the cancer trials on dogs go on to become standards of care in humans, so more trials are needed.  Osteosarcoma (bone cancer), which Charley has, mostly occurs in children and young adults and the prognosis is poor.  Unfortunately treatment options and success rates haven’t changed much in 20 years, but with more clinical trials hopefully this will change in our lifetime!

The statistics are startling!  1 in 3 dogs will be diagnosed with cancer.  50% of dogs over the age of 10 will die from cancer.

I know you are all dog lovers.  Dog lovers have lots of doggie lover friends who know other doggie lover friends.  Even if you don’t want to buy a Canine Cancer Warrior Shirt, please share!  

Together we can ALL make a difference! ❤️ PLEASE SHARE!!! ❤️

I've attached pictures of the front and back of the shirt I designed.  The shirt is available in a short sleeve tee, long sleeve tee, hoodie and a women’s fitted tee and they come in a variety of colors too.  The long sleeve tee and hoodies are now also available in grey!

Never give up hope!  My hope is that one day there is a cure for this dreaded disease….
 
Sending lots of positive thoughts and prayers to all of you and your furry babies!
 
Thank you for all of your prayers, positive thoughts, hugs, and kisses.  It is greatly appreciated and we can’t thank you enough for all of your support!
 
 
  Hugs from me (Ellen) and chocolate Labby kisses from Charley!  xoxo  ♥

Yep, completely agree with everything Sally said.....First, yay Charlie, you are a super canine kicking-cancer's-butt hero warrior, and I am also ordering a shirt in honor and memory of my angel Polly, and my angel Maggie, both fought cancer bravely, and lost their battle with just as much bravery......and to so many of my friends here that lost their brave beloved Tripawds as well......they (so many to name), will never be forgotten......

Love,

Thank you Sally and Alumni Happy Hannah and Merry Myrtle too!  I love your idea to add Happy Hannah's name too!  There's one more week left before the campaign closes and then the shirts will be shipped out!  Yay!  I can't wait to receive mine either.  Of course I couldn't decide so I ordered a long sleeve shirt and hoodie....and I may need to order a tee also! 

Thanks again for your support!

Love, hugs, and chocolate Labby kisses,

Ellen and Charley xoxo

I ordered 2 t-shirts different colors.  Maybe I should order a hoodie too.  I don't have many hoodies or sweatshirts.  Hmmm have to think on it.  :)

Hey, we should order these and wear them to our pawty. That would make an awesome group picture!

TY GUY, Best Black Lab ever! Diagnosed  and had amp in January, 2014. Kicked MRSA's butt. Earned his angel wings on April 16, 2014. Run Free my boy and don't forget a shoe. Ty is a proud member of the " April Angels". Ty sent us Daryl, a Tripawd rescue in Sept. of 2016. Daryl is 5 +or -. We are also Pawrents to Chandler, a Border Collie mix who is 15 and 1/2, Lucy, a Corgi who is 7, 2 minis, 2 horses, and a feisty cat named Zoe. Zoe had a non skeletal Osteosarcoma removed in July 2015. No Chemo, she was at least 16. She is going strong although she is now completely blind. She is now close to 20 and her hobbies are eating and sleeping in front of her personal heater.

Thank you Michelle and Angel Sassy.  I greatly appreciate your support!  I ordered a tee shirt and a hoodie because I couldn't decide!   :)  If you decide on the hoodie, you can add it to your existing order and save on shipping (it will only be $1 more) until the campaign closes.  

Here's the link if you decide to add to your order:

4myty,

I think that's a great idea!  That would make a great group photo....everyone in their matching Canine Cancer Warrior shirts!

The campaign closes next Sunday, February 8, at 10:00pm C.S.T. and all orders will have to be placed by the end of the campaign.

In just 7 days, 105 shirts and hoodies have sold! Hopefully the next 7 days will be just as successful!

 

Love, hugs, and chocolate Labby kisses,

Ellen and Charley xoxo
