Finn's legacy lives on here at the Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital! ❤️

To recognize vet techs' essential role in the CSU Veterinary Teaching Hospital, and to help technicians care for their own pets, three private donors established Finn’s Friends Fund in 2022. The fund honors Finn, a “sassy” golden retriever who underwent cancer treatment at the Flint Animal Cancer Center in the hospital.

Today, we pause to honor and thank all veterans who have served and sacrificed for our country — both two- and four-legged. 🐾

At the Flint Animal Cancer Center, we are deeply grateful for the brave men, women, and military canines whose courage protects our freedom and inspires us every day.

To all who have served — and to the loyal service dogs who stood beside them — we salute you. Thank you for your dedication, strength, and love. 💙❤️🤍

Dogs and humans share more than companionship; we also, unfortunately, share cancer. 🧬

Cancer affects dogs and people at nearly the same rate, and we often get the same kinds of cancer.

That's why we're on a mission to find One Cure for all! Studying cancer in pets helps advance understanding and treatment for pets and people.

At the Flint Animal Cancer Center, our work in comparative oncology bridges human and veterinary medicine, turning discoveries in one species into hope for another.

This Pet Cancer Awareness Month, support science that saves lives — for pets and people.

Early detection saves lives. 🎗️

Just like in people, diagnosing cancer early gives pets the best chance for more quality time with their families.

When cancer is caught early, it’s often localized (hasn’t spread). That means surgery, radiation, or targeted chemotherapy can be more effective. Once the cancer metastasizes (spreads), treatment shifts to management rather than cure, and unfortunately, prognosis typically worsens.

We recommend regular vet check-ups and attention to any changes in your pet's health. Early detection can make all the difference.

This Pet Cancer Awareness Month, schedule a checkup, spread the word, and help us continue to fight cancer in pets.

Here at the Flint Animal Cancer Center, national nonprofit Petco Love is powering our lifesaving work for pets like Nipper.

Nipper is an 8-year-old mixed-breed dog and has been very loved by his pet parents from the moment they adopted him as a puppy. Recently, his pet parents noticed several lumps and bumps on his body. They brought him to the FACC for treatment. Thanks to a lifesaving investment from Petco Love, Nipper is getting the care he needs to continue making his family smile.

“We would like to thank Petco Love for the investment in Nipper’s care at the Flint Animal Cancer Center. It has truly helped Nipper in his journey. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!” - Brandon G., Nipper’s pet parent.
