To fight the canine overpopulation problem in Saskatchewan, New Hope Dog Rescue is as soon as once more launching their ‘Spring Snip’ fundraising and consciousness marketing campaign.
Sandra Archibald, Executive Director at New Hope Dog Rescue, says they hope to lift $6000 by the top of the month, which is able to hopefully cowl the cost of spaying or neutering round 18-24 dogs by way of their Saskatchewan First Nation Spay and Neuter Program.
“The program will bring the animal into our care for 7-1 days. in that time, they go to the vet, they get a wellness visit, they get their DHPP vaccine, their rabies vaccine, they get microchipped, and they get spayed or neutered.”
She says if she has one piece of recommendation for present or potential canine homeowners, it’s this…
“Please responsibly spay or neuter your pet of you are not wanting to have a litter of puppies. If you are wanting to have a litter of puppies, please take the time to do the necessary health testing on your animal to ensure that they are healthy.”
She provides that spaying and neutering only one feminine/male pair will forestall tens of 1000’s of unintended puppies from being born.
“One female goes into heat twice a year, and she can have anywhere from 2-18 puppies depending on the dog. If she does that twice, let’s go with the high end, that’s 36 puppies. Now what are the chances that those puppies are going to get spayed or neutered?”
NHDR is a registered-non revenue charity and can present tax receipts to individuals who donate over $25. Donations are accepted till the top of April on-line by way of their web site, by way of e-transfer, and in-person at adoption occasions.
