At Purina, we understand that pets and people have a remarkable connection – and it’s this unique bond that is celebrated through the Purina Animal Hall of Fame. The Purina Animal Hall of Fame is the longest running Canadian pet recognition program of its kind. To date, 182 remarkable animals with outstanding lifesaving acts of animal courage and heroism have been inducted.
Unfortunately, as the world continues to navigate COVID-19, we made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s Animal Hall of Fame induction process and ceremony. While the tradition of over 50 years is so close to our hearts, we feel a responsibility to protect our community, our team, and all of the amazing pets and pet owners across Canada by staying home and staying safe. We look forward to sharing more amazing stories of animal bravery with you next year. Until then, please meet @PurinaCanada’s 2019 #petheroes: Watch, enjoy and share their stories!
