DANDY, a black and white collie owned by the Buck family, saved the life of 68-year-old John Brisbane who was alone and injured in a cabin. Dandy’s actions enabled Mr. Brisbane to receive the medical attention he needed.
At Purina, we celebrate the unique and powerful bond between pets and people through the Purina Animal Hall of Fame. This program, the longest-running of its kind in Canada, honours animals who have demonstrated exceptional courage, loyalty, and love.
These pets have gone beyond being companions—they’ve become heroes. From saving lives to offering emotional support, each inductee has made a significant impact on the lives of those around them. It reminds us of the everyday heroes who walk beside us on four legs, offering comfort, protection, and unconditional love.
We encourage you to explore the stories of past inductees and consider nominating a pet who has made a difference. To learn more about the Purina Animal Hall of Fame or to submit a nomination for the upcoming year, please click here and complete our form. Help us honour the animals who continue to inspire and uplift us.
