The Plan

We’ve been in operation for a year and a half now, working strictly out of fantastic foster homes and not a building.  We will continue to work with foster homes, as that is the best option for most animals, but the amount of animals in need is so much greater then we have room for.  So, our waiting list is so long.  Now it’s time for us to make a real effort to aquire a building.  We’re going to be doing this in 5 steps.

1. Draw up a building blueprint - DONE! The Pembina Valley Humane Society has given us the blueprints from the building they are nearing com;letion on.  Since they have had a simalar start-up to ours, we are shaddowing their success so that we can save as many precious lives as possible.  Beloa is the layout.
2. Choose a piece of land to build on
3. Gather surrounding munisipality’s financial support
   
4. collect funds through fund raising
5. Build the facility!

So we’ll keep you updated on our progress.

Mandy

Hi there, my name is Mandy.  I’m a very laid back sweet girl like my mom.  I like to cuddle and be loved.  I was abandoned at a different shelter and scheduled to be euthenized with my family, but the SHS saved our lives!  Now I’m waiting to find my forever home where I can be loved and spoiled for the rest of my life.  Have you been waiting for me?  I’ve been waiting for you.

Mandy and her brother Mikey have been welcomed into thieir new amazing forever home.  Congrats little ones!

This site contains a variety of topics, from breed reviews and training to comparing purebreds to mixed breeds. Use this tool to help find the best breed of dog to fit your lifestyle and personality. Or just cruise around it to learn more about the dog you already have. Either way, it’s fun and informative.

Tips

• Do not feed your dog chicken bones - chicken bones splinter and dogs can easily choke on them or have them poke holes while traveling through their digestive tract.

Tips

• Never feed your cat milk - most cats are lactose intolerant and will most likely become ill should they ingest more milk then they can handle.
