 Golden Inspiration
Long devoted to championing the human-canine bond, our
knowledge and spirit have been
strengthened by the important work of such visionaries as Dr. Allen Schoen. A believer that all animals have emotions and feelings,
Allen began his research into natural healing in the 1970s, at a time when his colleagues neither understood nor cared about what he was doing.
The
tender image above of 'paw in hand,' that graced the initial printing of his book,
Kindred Spirits, gives visual reminder to the power of
The Bond—so
framing those actions on the behalf of our
vital animal companions.
Advancing our Mission
Celebrating our 14th year on the web, our educational and charitable nonprofit is
promoting cancer awareness,
providing Cancer Treatment Grants for ALL breed Working Dogs,
and funding research in comparative
oncology, the study of cancers that occur similarly in humans and companion
animals.
 Totally volunteer-run with no salaried employees, we do this via Donations
and our Foundation Store, many items supporting
our holistic, chemical-free and organic view of wellness and prevention.
|
Online or
via pickup,
we provide organic, eco-friendly, and chemical-free products, plus items
to beautify your home and spirit. As a small
volunteer-run nonprofit, we can't compete with the pricing at large stores. However,
having no paid staff allows all our net proceeds to fund cancer research and treatment
for working dogs. Sit, stay & shop for
what truly matters — health, home, happiness and healing.

To both strengthen and proactively lengthen
'The Bond', we provide
storytelling, interactive activities, and several hundred
pages on canine rearing, holistic health practices, and motivational learning.
There is also a PetTalk Newsletter that is
dedicated to giving animal companions a voice in the world.
We demonstrate that the love of dogs needs to be viewed within the grander
context our preserving our world and having a respect for all life. In that same
vein, a further area to explore special topics
Important to Us is also provided.
Through our
Foundation's Facebook Page there is sometimes laughter and sometimes tears, but always food for the soul. Here, we demonstrate that
the love of dogs needs to be viewed within the grander context our preserving
our world and having a respect for all life.
Gotta Dance and Dr. Modiano Documentary Films
 The
GOTTA DANCE documentary film captures the journey of two moving from fear to freedom, and so
inspiring the lives of all whom they have touched. The film, Dr.
Modiano: Helping Both Man & Dog, reveals how dogs have become one of
our most helpful allies in fighting cancer. Your tax-deductible
donation to comparative oncology research allows for both of these films to be
provided for FREE!
A Guiding Philosophy
 LIVE LOVE LAUGH and LEARN forms the central theme and structure of our
huge 1,000+ page website. It actually came about as a special tribute
and can be seen on the logo that adorns the bottom of every one of our site's pages. So, do be sure to
Live and Learn
. . .
See Loyalty at Work . .
.
And, Love and Laugh.
The lessons these furry angels teach us are never
ending, so inspiring a new respect, appreciation, and celebration of life. For
that reason, we encourage folks to share their own
tales of discovery.
Dr. Schoen very wisely reminds us, "Far from a luxury, pets are now recognized as a necessity—friends who fortify us daily with their gifts of love, loyalty and laughter."
Yet, our shared affinity for Golden Retrievers is noted in his special adage, "G-d made dogs and then when he perfected them, he created Goldens."
