OUR LOGO

Designed by our friends at Toronto Wrapture, the logo has a dog, and features our iconic purple colour. We decided the colour purple because it was our furever CEO Ellie's original leash colour.

OUR MISSION

To build community through dog-friendly events.

 

 We host and sponsor dog-friendly events in the York Region area that help promote, build, and empower local businesses while creating inclusive spaces for our community to meetup and make new friends. While doing this we promote rescues and charities to help animals in need.
