The VPD Canine Calendar returns with its annual collection of adorable pooches striking poses for charity.
The 2019 instalment features members of the VPD canine unit as they work to keep the city safe.
The calendar is now for sale and each one costs $15. Money raised from the calendars will go towards the BC Cancer Foundation and the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation. Since 2010, the sale of the calendars has raised $200,000 for charity.
What's more, the stars of the calendar, along with their handlers, will be at the corner of Granville and Georgia streets in Vancouver on Friday, October 26. As such, you will have the chance to meet them in person and pick up one of the awesome calendars.
