I hardly get the chance to photograph my dogs other than with my cellphone. So this morning, when I saw how pretty it was out back after the freezing rain, I gathered my camera, Teddy and a bag of treats and went to rectify that. Thank you, Teddy, for delivering your most noble expressions.

Calendar Pre-Order!

We are now taking pre-orders for our Second Chance Animal Sanctuary and Rescue calendars! You might remember that earlier in the year, Wild + Ruff held a calendar contest with all proceeds going to us. The top 13 dogs with the most votes are in the calendar. You aren't going to want to miss out on their adorable photos. These calendars make great holiday gifts.

Pre-Order yours today to ensure you get yours. We will be selling a few after but quantities will be limited. We will be taking pre-orders until November 20th.

Also, there will be calendars available for purchase at East End Vet Clinic in Toronto and at the calendar launch event on November 17th at Something in the Water Brewing.

To pre-order, please visit the events page on our website at https://www.secondchanceanimalsanctuary.ca/events/hozgx1zktzu2a3cewxvc7klpicf15h

Our 2025 charity calendar contest cover girl, Daffy, just did her photo session at her happy place: Cherry Beach!

A rescue dog who found her way to Toronto from the U.S., she's such an incredibly striking girl, with her piercing blue eyes and eyeliner look!

We were up before sunrise for this session, and it was so worth the early start!
