Pet parents and dog lovers, here’s a really cool way to feel good by doing good and it doesn’t cost a thing! Just share a photo of your dogs in action and loving life. For every person who follows @ZukesPets on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, and tags their action-packed dog photo with #FuelTheCure, Zuke’s will donate $5 to The Dog and Cat Cancer Fund.

The Dog and Cat Cancer Fund (DCCFund) is a non-profit organization dedicated to understanding, treating and preventing canine and feline cancer. Six million dogs and a similar number of cats are diagnosed with cancer each year in the United States. The funds raised from the “Fuel the Love – Fuel the Cure” campaign will be used to provide much-needed financial assistance to pet parents whose dogs and cats are suffering from cancer. It will also help raise awareness about canine and feline cancer.

Tag @ZukesPets + #FueltheCure to share your dog's photo & they will donate $5 to fight canine cancer! http://t.co/tDysAJQNCB

Hazel started the 10 week dog weight loss challenge at 28 pounds. The ideal weight for a miniature schnauzer is between 10-15 pounds. On her first check-in, Hazel had lost 2 pounds. Then on her second check-in, she was down another pound. Her final check-in has her down a total of 4 pounds. Hazel now weighs 24 pounds and she feels great!
