TORONTO, ONTARIO

The Purina Animal Hall of Fame is a tribute to the incredible bond between pets and people. As Canada’s longest-standing pet recognition program, it celebrates animals whose acts of courage and loyalty have made a profound impact on the lives of others.

At Purina, we believe that pets are more than companions—they are heroes. Since the program began, hundreds of animals have been inducted for their bravery, compassion, and unwavering devotion. These stories remind us of the strength and resilience that pets bring into our lives.

From saving lives to offering emotional support, each inductee has made a meaningful difference. Their stories inspire us to appreciate the everyday heroes in our own homes and communities.

We invite you to explore the stories of past inductees and consider nominating a pet who has shown exceptional courage or loyalty.
