Animal Hall of Fame - 2001

The Purina Animal Hall of Fame is a celebration of the extraordinary. As Canada’s longest-running pet recognition program, it honours animals whose acts of courage, loyalty, and compassion have left a lasting mark on the lives of others. At Purina, we believe that pets are everyday heroes who deserve to be celebrated.

Since the program’s inception, hundreds of animals have been recognized for their bravery and devotion. These stories highlight the powerful role pets play in our lives and the deep emotional bonds we share with them. From alerting families to danger to offering comfort during difficult times, each inductee has made a meaningful contribution.

Their stories inspire us to appreciate the strength and love that animals bring into our homes and communities. The Hall of Fame is more than a recognition program—it’s a tribute to the spirit of animals who have made a difference.
