This includes exciting rewards such as Leafs tickets, memorabilia, and pet-related prizes.

The partnership is designed to engage both human and pet fans with a season-long campaign. Chewy Canada is also offering exclusive discounts on Toronto Maple Leafs-branded pet merchandise through its dedicated online shop and in-game activations.
