Welcome
to
K9 Care and Rescue...
We
are a group of volunteers dedicated to
improving the welfare of hundreds of dogs in an Alberta First Nations
reserve,
where we have
noticed a great need for assistance. We are educating dog owners,
providing dog houses, arranging veterinary care, fostering stray or
unwanted dogs, finding them new homes, and feeding as many dogs as
possible. Please join us in our
attempts to save and care for these dogs. You can help by making
your business a donation drop off location, raising awareness by
telling others about us, becoming a volunteer or driver,
donating to the Barrhead Veterinary Clinic, adopting, fostering and
donating items.
Please visit our UPDATES page.
Emergencies:
- New
puppies have been born! They are roughly 3-4 weeks old. A
foster home is needed as soon as possible for litter rearing! The
runt has a growth on his neck that is making it difficult for him to
feed. Please let us know if you can help cover the expenses for
him.
- We need a Fundraiser Coordinator.
- An
indoor quarantine area is required as soon as possible. We need a holding
place for dogs in a place with no other pets for dogs coming into our
care. While they are being quarantined, they will receive
vaccinations and any necessary medical treatment. They will need
to be kept apart from other animals for up to 14 days. If you can
offer a warm place (home, heated garage or shop, extra indoor kennel away from other animals) to us consistenly or even briefly, please let us know as soon as possible here.
