Twelve Beds of Christmas Charity Auction for the Toronto Humane Society



We are planning our Second Annual Charity Auction in November. We will showcase 12 one of a kind Dog Beds created by Canadian architects/ tv personalities /artists /graphic, interior, fashion designers to create a custom printed/stitched bed to be auctioned off to go towards the Toronto Humane Society.

Last year we had designers such as Sarah Richardson, The Designer Guys - DGIII, Lynda Reeves and Tommy Smythe participate in our event. We raised $10,000 for the Toronto Humane Society! This far exceeded our initial expectations, which speaks to the caliber of the folks that helped us out and to the enormous generosity of the doggie lovers! We were truly blown away!!
