ABOUT

Purina Walk for Dog Guides is a national event that takes place in over 180 Walks in Canada. The Lion’s Foundation is at its largest single fundraiser all thanks to Nestlé Purina PetCare Canada and also their other national sponsors; especially for making 100% of the funds go directly to a training of a work dog that provides as a Dog Guides. It is held mostly in the Spring time by local volunteers with the support of The Lion’s Foundation of Canada. They are trying to reach goals for the number amount of Canadians that are in need of Dog Guides. Purina Walk for Dog Guides not only help raise awareness and money they also encourage families to go out and have a fun filled day by participating in the walk with or without your friendly furry little animal. All the money that is raised goes to this important program where you yourself could win a prize.
