Canadian Celebrity Dogs We Love

We love Instagram and follow over 3,000 pals from all around the world. Today we wanted to highlight famous dog stars from Ontario.  Some of these wonderful dogs will be attending and performing at this weekend’s Canadian Pet Expo.

Currently, 57% of millennial households own a pet. Most consider pets family and share photos on social media. Many seem to see pets as a form of social currency that gives instant validation from peers through likes and comments (I confess, I am young at heart and love getting likes and the social part of social media- in fact I’ll be starting a page for Kilo the Pug). It is great fun looking at cute dog faces, beautiful photos and creative content. You can’t help but smile.

Over 50% of millennials are avid social media users who follow at last one pet profile online. We’ve noticed huge growth over the last year of dogs on Instagram and their followers.  Our own little darling Beau, adopted by talented Aria late last year has already passed 10,000 followers- woohoo.

Enjoy our Top 11 Instagram Dogs From Ontario
