Animal rescue behaviour groups are warning people to consider the long-term impacts of adopting a puppy during the COVID-19 pandemic.

After years of planning, the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society is preparing to open a building in Edmonton, but it needs your help.

After four years, the woman facing more than a dozen animal cruelty charges pleaded guilty Wednesday to less than half of those charges.

A Calgary animal shelter is reducing the cat adoption fee until the end of July.

April Irving is facing 13 counts of animal cruelty after more than 200 dogs were seized from a property near Milk River in 2015.

A handful of Alberta animal rescue groups answered the call after a remote community in northern Saskatchewan reached out for help in dealing with hordes of stray dogs and cats.

To be a donor, dogs must be over 55 pounds, between one and eight years old, up to date on their vaccines and well-behaved.

A Calgary animal rescue is calling it "an act of desperation."

The Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society (AARCS) reached maximum capacity with 600 homeless cats and dogs last week after adoptions were sluggish.

If you can't adopt, AARCS said you can donate time or money, or foster animals.
