Did you know that our dog Billy is a Pet Therapy dog? Accompanied by Maggie, he visits patients at the Royal Columbia Hospital, spreading smiles and cheering up very sick and stressed people of all ages. He loves his job – but is always completely exhausted after spreading all that love! Lots of other dogs do this too, as part of a great organization called Pets and Friends.
This weekend, we will be joining other pet therapy dogs (and their owners!) to compete in the Scotiabank Charity Challenge.
Pets and Friends is an official charity partner in the 2017 Scotiabank Half Marathon and 5k!
Please contribute to this great cause by visiting the web site and making a donation to our team. Your support will help to grow this very important mental health outreach program and bring the joy and comfort of pet therapy to more communities throughout the lower mainland of BC.

But we also need to earn a living, so we would appreciate it very much if you click through to one of our reputable affiliates for your online shopping. We are proudly affiliated with Amazon, which sells pretty much everything, and has outstanding shipping and return policies. When you buy from our affiliates we make a small commission, and this is the only way we earn any income. Plus, it costs you nothing at all - a real win/win situation! We here at Average Joe Cyclist do not receive any information AT ALL about who you are, where you live, or what your dog's name is. Buying through our Amazon links is simply an anonymous way to thank us for our efforts, like tossing a few coins in a tip jar. Except that it is Amazon who tosses the coins, not you! | ||
