A Malvern veterinary hospital will sponsor a 2-mile walk next month, with proceeds benefiting an organization that supports research helping both people and dogs with cancer.

According to Hope Veterinary Specialists:

Dogs and their owners are invited to participate in a 2-mile Walk to raise funds for cancer research. The Walk will benefit the 2 Million Dogs Puppy Up! Foundation, an organization dedicated to supporting research that helps people with cancer as well as dogs with cancer. The Walk will be held in conjunction with an Open House at Hope Veterinary Specialists in Malvern, on Saturday, Nov. 1.

“The meaning behind our name, Hope Veterinary Specialists, is quite simple,” explains Dennis Burkett, VMD, hospital owner. “It’s where the hopes for tomorrow reside today. By sponsoring the Philly Puppy Up! Walk and having an Open House together, we are able to show our commitment to our patients, to research and to the community.”
