To celebrate Canada’s canines and capture their most memorable moments, Kijiji Canada is hosting a photo booth at Woofstock, the largest festival for dogs in North America. People and their pets are encouraged to stop by the booth on Saturday, June 12 or Sunday, June 13 to play dress-up and pose for a photo.
Homeless pets urgently need the assistance of the public to avert a disaster created in part by the current economy and the closures of the Toronto Humane Society Shelter and the OSPCA Shelter in Newmarket.

Do dogs have celebrity alter egos? Elvis perhaps? Lady Ga Ga? Paris Hilton? Some owners think they do. To celebrate this year's Woofstock launch, we're hosting a chi-chi "Doggie Doggelganger" High Tea on June 6 at the Le Meridien King Edward Hotel to give 60 celebrity look-alike canines a chance to trot down the red carpet.
The Toronto Humane Society will be closing its doors from April 12th until June 1st, 2010. During this time, NO animals will be able to remain in the building. That means we only have 10 days to find all the animals at THS homes. This includes 44 rats, 18 rabbits, and 126 cats. If ever there was a time to adopt - now is that time! These animals need your help, and they need it now!
