Totten Insurance Group held its 18th annual Dog Guides Charity Invitational Golf Tournament in support of the Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides on August 29 at the Glen Cedars Club in Pickering, Ontario. Since 1983, more than 1,700 Canadians between 4 and 90 years of age have successfully graduated with a dog guide from Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides. The impact these dog guides have had on their handlers’ lives ranges from simplifying everyday tasks, such as picking up a dropped item, to getting help when it is needed most. Dog guide skills include canine vision; hearing ear; special skills; seizure response; and autism assistance to name a few. Heather Masterson, President & CIO of Totten Insurance Group commented, “We are so pleased with the turnout at this year’s annual tournament. The Lions Foundation of Canada Dog Guides plays a crucial role in the lives of Canadians with disabilities and we are very proud supporters of such a valuable charity. Thanks to all of our sponsors and attendees for making the tournament such a success, we couldn’t have asked for a better day!”
