Second Round!!! Community Impact Award (CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS)
We are thrilled to announce Year Three of our Love Letters to Your Dogs Contest—a heartfelt tradition and our love letter to the dogs who have changed our lives forever.
This contest is an invitation to handwrite a love letter to your dog:
From today until February 14, we invite you to share your handwritten love letters with us.
We have four simple asks:
A Handwritten letter preferably—because love looks best in your own handwriting, however an email is absolutely ok!
Select a photo of your dog that captures their spirit and your bond.
Email a photo or scan of your handwritten letter along with the photo to: info@thebeaglealliance.org
We’ll be sharing your beautiful letters and photos on our social media and featuring them on our website.
Please take a typed copy of your love letter and send it to Premier Doug Ford alongside our copy should you like:
Premier Ford, THANK YOU for wanting to make a difference for dogs in research in Canada. I do hope that you will consider a comprehensive adoption program for the release of dogs from research. These dogs are special and I believe that The Beagle Alliance has the expertise to ensure they transition into loving homes with the utmost of care and training.
I just entered the “LOVE LETTERS TO YOU DOG CONTEST” on The Beagle Alliance website and I wanted to share with you my letter and how much my dog means to me with you. The Beagle Alliance believes that our love for dogs can spark change for all animals in Canada and so do I.
Thank you Premier Ford for everything you are doing for the dogs.
Here is my letter:
(Your letter here)
Sincerely, (Your name here)
At The Beagle Alliance, we believe it is our collective love for dogs that will create real change for all animals used in research across Canada.
Premier Doug Ford has the opportunity to lead this change in Ontario—and together, we can help set a powerful precedent for the rest of the country.
We are so looking forward to:
The contest begins NOW and ends at midnight on February 14th. The winner will be announced at noon on February 15th!

Please consider speaking with your MP about animal free science. These innovative methods have already proven to be more effective for humans, less expensive - and of course would save the lives of so many animals.
