Pincher Creek Humane Society/SPCA

We are a small no-kill animal shelter running on a shoestring! We serve Pincher Creek and area but many of our animals have been adopted to other provinces and occasionally to USA. We are a non profit organisation run by volunteers with one paid member of staff. We have facilities for 6 dogs in winter, 9 in summer and are often overcrowded. We have accommodation for 9 cats but deal with up to 40 at times. We use foster homes where possible. Our facility is sadly inadequate for the growing town and we are trying to raise found for a new building. I am President, webmaster, fund raiser and general dogsbody. I do it because I love animals and would like to see every lost, abused or unwanted animal in a forever home.

Potential adopters come to the shelter and fill in questionnaire and adoption contract. Fees vary but generally $140 per dog/puppy with $60 rebate on altering if not already done. Cats $65 per cat/kitten with $30 rebate if not already done.
