Dog Walk for Cancer 2026

My Activity Tracking

27
kms

My target 50kms

Please sup-pawt me

This June, my dog is leading the way as we take on Cancer Council’s 50km Dog Walk for Cancer challenge.

Almost 1 in 2 Australians will be diagnosed with cancer by age 85, so every step we take will help change that. With every wag, walkies and sniff stop, we're putting one paw in front of the other for a cause that matters.

Every kilometre my pup and I walk is for everyone who has heard, or will hear, the words “you have cancer”. And every dollar we raise together will help fund life-saving cancer research, prevention programs and essential support services for people impacted by cancer.

If you can, please donate to keep our paws moving and help tackle cancer alongside us. Because it’s all of us, humans and pups, in this together.

My Updates

Big day, sore feet!

Monday 8th Jun
Big day today-ALOT of walking and now time to rest our little feeties (some of which got muddy!) 

Day 5

Friday 5th Jun
Brrrrr. Winter has set in with a snap and an icy wind chilling us to our bones. BUT the walk must continue on even when it’s 5am, dark and freezing, our hearts are warmed to think of the people we can support through raising awareness and funds. 

Winter Warming

Gotta run fast to get my 50kms up. Not because I am in a hurry, but because it’s really hit the winter weather!
