2023
2023's #1 Dog was Luna Pie Ophelia Huber!
Luna donated $150.00 to the Meadow Lake & District Humane Society!
Luna, was adopted from the Regina Humane Society in April of 2014. She is a sassy, silly and fun loving girl who adores her family. She isn't fond of strangers and takes quite awhile to warm up to new people. We believe she is about 11 years old now, but that doesn't stop her from hearing every little noise and investigating with her barks. If you live on Fournier you've probably heard her bark at the wind.
Likes: Cheese, squeaky toys, car rides, her grandparents Michelle & Terry, her Uncle's (Joel, Zac & Elliot), her mom (Bronwyn), her cat brother (Tommy) sometimes, barking at nothing, Stephanie her groomer/petsitter
Dislikes: Global warming, poverty, pollution, having wet paws, student debt

2022's #1 Dog was Duchess Tinkerbelle Ballantyne!
Tinkerbelle donated $320.00 to the Meadow Lake & District Humane Society!
Duchess Tinkerbelle is 16 years old, she is loved and adored by her parents/owners Brian & Deborah Ballantyne. Tinkerbelle was born in a puppy mill & abandoned as a puppy at a Calgary vet because of severe health issues. She was rescued by a volunteer/foster from the Calgary SPCA just moments before being euthanized. Tinkerbelle was fostered in Calgary and later transferred to a Rescue/Foster in Manitoba and adopted by Brian and Deborah in May of 2007.
Tinkerbelle is full of personality, and she loves dressing up and modelling for her friends on Facebook. Tinkerbelle has been entertaining her fans on Facebook since 2010. She is known to be an advocate for shelters & rescue animals, being one herself. Tinkerbelle is very proud and happy about her donation to the Meadow Lake & District Humane Society all thanks her dad for securing that bid and title for her.
Tinkerbelle's hope is that all animals someday will have a "furever" home just like hers
