THE STORY

2018

A golden retriever named Spencer won over hearts worldwide, greeting runners on the Boston Marathon route.

​

2021

Spencer was named the Official Dog of the Boston Marathon.

 

2022

Spencer and his sister Penny were both stolen from this world within weeks of each other from cancer.

​

2023

MA Golden Meetups invited the community to keep Spencer and Penny's memory alive with a Golden Strong meetup the day before the Boston Marathon and raised over $2000 toward the Morris Animal Foundation's research on cancer in golden retrievers.  

​

2024

We invite you to join us again in honoring Spencer and Penny's memory and help us take a stand against canine cancer in golden retrievers. Because together, we are Golden Strong. 

​

​Spencer and Penny's successors, Jimmy and Jade, will be there too! ​
