June 28, 2011: Dog runs half marathon to support cancer research

Fuck cancer.

So Dozer the dog was sitting in front of his house on Sunday morning when a bunch of runners went by, and he decided to join the chase. He didn't know that what was happening was a half-marathon to support the UM Greenebaum cancer center. He only knew that a bunch of people were running and having a good time. And so he decided to join in.

Dozer escaped his wireless fencing; and ran most of the course, with witnesses, and now has his own Facebook page to show how he accidentally joined in the cause and helped raise money for cancer research.

Good dog.

Looks pretty frikken self satisfied!

Man's best friend looks right-fully proud. Dogs evolve to meet human needs from rousting a cave bear to putting the fuck to cancer. Great looking critter.

Wait a minute ... Goldendoodle??? :lol:

Everybody has to be something.

A mix between a Golden Retriever and Poodle. :)

Totally does. Dogs certainly, if not possessed of the same emotions as us, have been instilled with the ability to look like they have them.

That dog's an attention whore. A half a marathon for a dog in people distance is like three blocks.

Hump cancer's leg.

The Golden Doodle and the Labradoodle are two mutts that are currently in high demand, which means that you can charge a couple of hundred bucks for a dog that used to just get turned over to the pound or shown at the supermarket in a box marked "free puppies."

S'pose it's a more friendly headline than "Loose Dog Chases Charity Runners"

Dozer is supposed to be on World News w/ Diane Sawyer tonight:
