Fenelon Falls Walk for Dog Guides - May 24th

Join the Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides and Change Lives!

The Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides is more than just a fundraiser—it’s a powerful movement dedicated to providing life-changing Dog Guides to Canadians with disabilities. By participating, you are helping transform lives, offering independence, safety, and companionship to those in need.

Our 7 Life-Changing Dog Guide Programs:

Dog Guides are specially trained to assist individuals with a variety of disabilities. Each program is designed to meet specific needs:

  • Canine Vision (Red) – Helping individuals who are blind or visually impaired navigate their surroundings with confidence.

  • Hearing (Orange) – Alerting those who are deaf or hard of hearing to important sounds, such as alarms and doorbells.

  • Service (Purple) – Assisting individuals with physical disabilities by retrieving items, opening doors, and providing support.

  • Seizure Response (Green) – Detecting and responding to seizure activity to ensure safety and prompt assistance.

  • Autism Assistance (Pink) – Enhancing safety and providing comfort to children with autism spectrum disorder.

  • Diabetes Alert (Teal) – Detecting dangerous blood sugar changes and alerting their handlers.

  • Facility Support (Blue) – Supporting professional agencies in their work with people in traumatic situations.

The Cost & Funding Behind These Incredible Dog Guides

Each Dog Guide costs $35,000 to raise, train, and match with a recipient. With a goal of raising $1.6 million, every dollar counts! These Dog Guides are provided at no cost to recipients thanks to generous supporters like you. The Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides does not receive government operational funding, making this event essential to continuing this vital work.

The Life-Changing Impact of Dog Guides

Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides empower individuals by creating brighter futures and unlocking countless possibilities. Whether guiding someone through daily activities, alerting them to medical emergencies, or providing comfort and support, these incredible dogs make a profound difference.
