TAKE A BITE OUT OF CANINE CANCER!TM Join our weekend gathering to benefit Ohio State University's Greyhound Health & Wellness Program (GHWP). This year we are honored to be joined by our featured speakers, Fabien Cousteau and
René Agredano & Jim Nelson of Tripawds. Our guest of honor speaker will be Dr. Nancy Gustafson, Oncologist, at The Regional Veterinary Referral Center in Springfield, VA.
Fabien Cousteau, Ocean explorer, environmental activist, and dog lover, grew up on the salt-stained decks of his famous grandfather's ships, Calypso and Alcyone, was destined to follow in the family footsteps of exploring and tirelessly working to protect our planet's immense and endangered marine habitats.
René and Jim are best known for founding Tripawds and their adventures traveling the country with their tripawed dog, Jerry. When Jerry was diagnosed with bone cancer and given only a few months to live in late 2006, they quickly made plans that changed their lives forever. By June, 2007 they had sold their business, home and nearly everything they owned. They hit the road in an RV to explore the country with Jerry - leaving the corporate world behind - and never looked back.
Dr. Gustafson works closely with the OSU Greyhound Health & Wellness Program. She believes that deciding to treat a pet's cancer must be based on the latest medical knowledge and advances as well as compassion, reality and the individual patient.
