Supporting Small Businesses, One Puppy Snuggle at a Time 🐾 Last week, we were thrilled to be part of the TikTok SmallBiz Pop-up at Toronto’s iconic Union Station!

A huge thank you to Proof Strategies and TikTok SmallBiz for hosting such an inspiring event. We loved being a part of this celebration of community, creativity, and connection!
