Last November, Kari and Steve — then newlyweds — were awakened in the middle of the night by their dog. He was highly agitated, whining and pawing, and simply would not give up until they were out of bed.
It was then that the young couple saw the thick smoke. Led by Juice, they fled outside. Within minutes, their house was completely ablaze and quickly burned to the ground. Recognized for his life-saving efforts, today Juice is the family star.
At Purina, we understand that pets and people have a special connection—and this unique bond 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, hundreds of amazing animals with outstanding acts of courage and heroism have been inducted and honoured by Purina.
These animals have demonstrated unmatched courage and loyalty, leaving a legacy that highlights the incredible bond between humans and animals, inspiring us all to strive for greatness. Each one has made a significant contribution to improving the lives of both people and animals, becoming a symbol of strength, reliability, and unconditional loyalty. Their stories encourage us to not only appreciate their accomplishments but also to honour the indomitable spirit that helps overcome any challenge.
