Welcome to Drake Dog Cancer Foundation & Academy

If your dog was just diagnosed with cancer, you're not alone.

Welcome to the Drake Dog Cancer Foundation and Academy.

If you’re here, chances are something in your world has shifted and we want you to know, you’re not alone.

We understand how overwhelming this journey can feel… the questions, the fear, the uncertainty of what to do next. It’s a place no one expects to be, and yet here you are, doing everything you can for your dog.

We’re truly honored you’ve found your way here.

At the Foundation, we’re not just a resource. We’re a community of people who care deeply. People who have been where you are or who are walking alongside you now. Our mission is to support you with compassionate guidance, meaningful education, and a sense of hope when you need it most.

You don’t have to figure this out on your own.

We're right next to you. Here for your pup. Here for you.

Ease Your Dog's Pain

Dogs rarely make pain obvious. They just sleep differently, hesitate before standing, stop jumping onto the couch.

Managing Pain in Dogs With Cancer is a five-module course that teaches you what to watch for, how to track whether the plan is working, and what to bring back to your veterinary team. $9.99, and the first module is free.

Enroll for $9.99

Make a living doing what you love.

You can’t stop wanting to help sick dogs and the families who love them, and that instinct matters. Every anxious pet parent, every recovering rescue, every aging dog who needs extra care deserves someone who truly understands.

That someone could be you. There’s a meaningful, rewarding career waiting in the pet care world, and we’ll help you build the skills, confidence, and experience to turn your love for dogs into work that changes lives.
