The Brockville SPCA is a has accepted 2 of 25 dogs recently received by the Ontario SPCA from the United States.
The dogs arrived July 6 from North Carolina and are among the more than 150 dogs who were rescued from the U.S. this year, where shelter space is sparse.
“Every animal deserves a loving home and we do what we can to help make that happen when partnering animal organizations reach out for help,” says Marianne Carlyle, manager of the Ontario SPCA Leeds & Grenville Animal Centre. “In addition to finding loving homes for animals here in Ontario, we also help our animal friends south of the border when we have the capacity at our animal centres.”
Twelve SPCAs have taken part in the program.
