WALKING AUSTIN TO BOSTON FOR CANINE CANCER AWARENESS
June 22nd, 2009 by Diane Herbst
Imagine quitting your job, packing up your belongings and walking from Austin to Boston with your two Great Pyrenees.
That 2,400-mile trek is exactly what Luke Robinson is doing with his “boys” Murphy and Hudson to raise awareness of canine cancer.
The trio left Texas in March, 2008 and are now in Ohio.
The inspiration for this journey began in 2006, when Robinson’s Great Pyrenees Malcolm died of osteosarcoma. Robinson, who worked in technology, was so shaken by Malcolm’s death and what he found was a lack of treatment for and research of canine cancer, that he quit his job and hit the road.
