🆘 Do you have some time to volunteer remotely? 🐕 Help find lost dogs and get them reunited with their owners! 🥰

WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!

Winnipeg Lost Dog Alert (WLDA) was formed to help dog owners in Winnipeg and the surrounding areas get their dogs home safely. Each year we help hundreds of dogs get safely home.
Without Admins we cannot do this vital work to help YOU get your dog’s home safely. We are always short of Admins, so we are again asking for help. Becoming a WLDA Admin is different from any other Page or Group Admin that I have had experience with. Most Pages need minimal input from Admins. However, we put a lot of work into helping you get your dogs safely home.
Other pages let you post on their page; they rely on you to make sure all the info needed is there (how often are there posts that don’t have pictures or even the location of where the dog went missing?). The other pages rely on YOU watching for comments, sightings etc.
Not only does WLDA do the posts for you, which makes sure we have ALL the information needed when people are watching for your dog, we also watch for comments and messages. We relay important information as soon as we can. We offer advice based on our many years of experience.
If this page has helped YOUR dog get home, would you consider ‘paying it forward’ by volunteering some of your time to help cover our page? Help us to help you. Volunteer with us. The more Admins we have available to cover the page, the less time each one needs to do.

🎄 Do you have space in your heart and home for an extra guest this holiday? 🐕🥰

We have a special request that would make an incredible difference in the lives of our shelter dogs: Would you consider being their home for the holidays?

During this festive season, we're extending our usual doggy date timelines to give our residents a chance to decompress in a loving home environment. We're especially looking for people who enjoy quiet holiday celebrations. If you can be a holiday hero for one of our furry friends (particularly for our long-term resident, Aubrey), our team would love to match you with the perfect temporary roommate for your household.

Please consider opening your heart and home this season. Stop by to meet our four-legged friends—we're open weekdays until 5:30 PM and weekends until 4:30 PM.

🎉 Good news for everyone that was concerned for this dog, who was in a poster that had been shared on Facebook!!! 🎉

Animal Cruelty – Arrest: C24-233387

On October 6, 2024, officers from the Central District responded to the Forks Market for reports of a dog being assaulted by an adult male.

Citizens at the Forks observed the dog being abused and recognized it as a missing dog recently posted about on social media. Security was notified, and police were contacted.

A 30-year-old male, Batista Nikalo SANDERSON, of Winnipeg, was arrested and charged with the following offences:

- Killing or Injuring Animals
- Possession of Property Obtained by Crime Under $5000

He was detained in custody.

Thanks to the citizens of Winnipeg, the dog has been reunited with its family and does not have serious injuries.
