About the Purina Walk for Dog Guides One hundred per cent of the proceeds from the Walk go directly toward Lions Foundation of Canada and its Dog Guide programs. Lions Foundation of Canada trains Dog Guides to help people who are blind or visually impaired, who are deaf or hard of hearing or who have a medical or physical disability. It costs approximately $20,000 to raise and train each Dog Guide. Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides does not receive any government funding yet all Dog Guides are provided at no cost. These Dog Guides have the ability to make a difference in the lives of Canadians with disabilities.
