As 2025 comes to a close, we reflect on a year marked by generosity, connection, and community. Thanks to the support of our partners, friends, and customers, Northern Biscuit donated hundreds of bags of treats to dogs and shelters across Canada. Each bag, each wagging tail, and each grateful moment made this year truly meaningful.
Highlights from 2025
Kimpton Hotel Saint George: Spring Market & Santa Paws Holiday Market
We began the year with two memorable events at the Kimpton Hotel Saint George. Through the Spring Market and Santa Paws Holiday Market, we distributed treats to 80 dogs. Additionally, we hosted two giveaways, one winner received a complimentary stay at the hotel, while another received a year’s supply of Northern Biscuit treats. It was a privilege to share smiles and joy with so many families.
Western Canada Pull Club International Pull Championships 2025 (May 3–4)
At this national event, dogs and trainers from across Canada and the United States gathered to compete. We were honoured to support the occasion by presenting our “Softies” treats to 10 winners and offering a special discount to all attendees. It was rewarding to contribute a small token of appreciation to such a passionate community.
Camp Doggin’it 2025 - August Outdoor Fun Day
In August, approximately 40 dogs and their owners joined us for a day of sunshine, play, and fellowship. We were thrilled to see so many happy pups enjoying the outdoors and plenty of Northern Biscuit treats. This day served as a simple but powerful reminder of the joy found in companionship and fresh air.
Central Ontario Newfoundland Dog Club National Newfoundland Specialty 2025 (Ancaster, ON Sept 5–7)
During this three-day specialty show, we had the pleasure of meeting many Newfoundland-dog owners and their loyal companions. We provided treats to 60 dogs and shared stories and connections with their devoted owners. The experience underscored the deep bond between dogs and their families.
Support for Peterborough Humane Society - Pet Pantry & Santa Parade
Our most heartfelt efforts of the year were focused close to home. We donated over 100 bags of treats to shelter dogs in the care of Peterborough Humane Society. Additionally, we contributed another 100+ bags to support their Santa Parade awareness campaign. We were honoured to lend a hand to pups in need and to support our local community.
Launch of “Gimme Shelter Cookies”
In collaboration with our partners at Can Pet, we introduced “Gimme Shelter Cookies” - a new treat line designed to give back. For every bag sold, we commit to donating $2 to local shelters and dog-focused charities. This initiative is more than a product; it is our pledge to support shelters and rescues consistently and compassionately.
What 2025 Taught Us
Through each event, donation, and partnership, we were reminded that Northern Biscuit is more than just a treat brand. It represents community, a shared love of dogs, a commitment to kindness, and a dedication to supporting pups in need, whether they belong to loving families or are waiting for their forever homes.
Thank You, From Our Pack to Yours
To every dog who received a treat, every person who attended an event or supported our cause, and every shelter volunteer and rescuer working tirelessly, thank you.
Your support made 2025 truly special. Together, we gave comfort, companionship, and a little extra happiness to pups all over Canada.
Here’s to more wagging tails, meaningful connections, and shared moments in 2026.
