All of our documentaries are produced with two things in mind… to create awareness of canine cancer, and to educate dog owners that there is a solution and an option for everyone. These documentaries are free; we firmly believe cancer education should not come with a price tag. To date we have created three award winning documentaries as well as one award winning music video designed to inform, empower, and give hope to anyone facing a cancer diagnosis in their dog.
MY FRIEND: CHANGING THE JOURNEY - A groundbreaking film about canine lymphoma. My Friend: Changing the Journey, takes dog lovers on their own informative journey of awareness and hope as it weaves interviews from highly respected oncologists, veterinarians and canine care professionals throughout three inspiring stories of dogs who are battling lymphoma and in some cases even beating the disease.
MY FRIEND: STANDING STRONG – A heartfelt documentary on canine bone cancer. The film is directed by the very talented Stacey M. Zipfel, who was also at the helm of.
My Friend: Changing the Journey. Working with the highly respected board certified veterinary oncologist and CLEAR’s Pop Up Canine Cancer Talks lecturer, Dr. Avenelle Turner, director Stacey brings together stories of hope and loss, bringing a raw emotion to what could be viewed as a powerful shock therapy session for animal lovers. “Every veterinary school should have the opportunity to present this documentary to their students, to make them aware of how important their work is, and how careful they should be not only with dogs, but also with all the wonderful animals out there.” – The Monthly Film Festival
A REASON TO CHANGE (music video) - A Reason To Change made a splash at film festivals and was released on our website 6/26/2017. ARTC is a hybrid combination of old school MTV music video with the power of a documentary on canine and children’s cancer. Director Stacey likes to call it a documentary dipped in a music video. The video tells the story of a boy and a dog, both battling cancer, who ultimately help one another through comparative oncology. The video stars Terry Simons, Brie Strohmeyer, Caroline van der Wyk, Page Jackson, Trevor Okwaho Hayes, Dr. Avenelle Turner, and introduces Jay Patriarca as the Boy and Ripper as the Dog.
‘A Reason to Change’ is a game-changer in this business and we totally should keep aneye on its future path.’ - Feel the Reel International Film Festival
MY FRIEND: RADICAL HOPE – A documentary filmed at the intersection of groundbreaking cancer research/hope/love/partnership. MFRH dives into the world of comparative oncology where we are truly teaming up with our dogs to find better treatments and cures for us all. We follow three brave owners and their dogs through clinical trials that use cutting-edge treatments to help our best friends. This is not animal research, these are dogs with naturally occurring cancers getting a shot at what used to be impossible. All treatments featured in the film have advanced through the FDA with some now in clinical trials for humans. Yes, we are in this fight hand in paw.
