Every step our community takes helps restore independence and transform lives across Canada.
Join us on May 31, 2026 to help restore independence and transform lives across Canada.
For 41 years, Canadians have come together through the Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides to witness journeys unfold — from hope into independence.
Like a butterfly emerging, every Dog Guide partnership represents growth, patience, and transformation.
Now, it’s your turn to help restore independence and transform lives.
Join the Pet Valu Walk for Dog Guides and be part of a national movement creating life-changing partnerships for Canadians living with disabilities.
