We can't believe this...not a single application for either of these two beauties. Still patiently waiting at Pet Valu in Melville. Maybe with a shift in the temperatures, people will venture out more for shopping. Angel and Jay are litter mates and featured together but they don't have to go together. If you are interested in adopting submit your application at yorktonspca.com

What's not to love about these adorable siblings! Angel and Jay have been spending time with the crew at pet valu in Melville and having a wonderful time but they long for a permanent home and family. Even tho they are together does not mean they have be adopted together. They are the last 2 from a litter of 6 to find their forever home. Loving and playful, litter trained, spayed, neutered, utd on vaccines, microchiped, dewormed and treated for mites. Nothing left for you to do but give them a home and love them. Indeed how could you not. If you are looking for a new furry friend go to yorktonspca.com/ how to adopt/our cats to apply.
You won't be disappointed!

A special Thank You to Yorkton and area on the amazing donations for the shelter. It's been a tough year for shelters and rescues Canada wide. However, your continued support always puts a smile on our face. The pictures show most of the presents the animals received, minus the odd supply that was needed right away. Whether you reached out online or came to visit in person, Thank You for always "Helping Us, Help Them." We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a blessed 2025.

Thank you to all the families that have supported the Shelter through adoption, old and new. It has been a difficult year for pets across Canada and no different here at the shelter. However, adoptions always put a smile on your face. Especially visits from former shelter pets in their new thriving environment. Thank you Barney for the quick visit and the kisses yesterday, lol. Here are some of the recent pets that have now found their new home this month so far. Not pictured, Carla and Tip, they were the current longest residents of the shelter. They both came in April of 2024.

Just a friendly reminder that the Shelter does not do adoptions the week before Christmas Day. Pets are first and foremost a responsibility and need to be committed to. The Holidays are a busy time of year and can be full of impulse buying. Please be more thoughtful when searching for a pet during this time of year.

Are you looking for a new puppy? Here is some good information on the potential costs.

Adding a new cat or dog to the family can be an exciting moment for everyone!

It's also important for a family to review if they are prepared to best support their new family member to thrive before they decide to bring them home - this includes providing on-going food, shelter, health care, and of course love for the new addition.

If you are planning for a new cat or dog, what do those costs really look like? Here's a peak into some of the costs for just the first year of pet ownership.

Not included in this image? The time required to care for, train, and offer enrichment to the animal, unforeseen emergency costs, the life long commitment a family makes to an animal, and of course all the love and joy the animal will offer your family in return 🧡🐾

Meet Bucko! He's been at the shelter for a few weeks now and has been a pleasure to get to know. He is Shepherd mix and just over 3 months old. He's more on the social side. Might be shy for minute and then it's play time. He's doing better on a leash but he does require a lot of training as he's just a pup. He does a pretty good job at sitting if you have a treat in hand. He's been at the Boys and Girls Club and enjoyed meeting all the kids. He did come with a female litter mate who has since been adopted. If you are interested in adoption, please visit yorktonspca.com, go to How To Adopt, select Our Dogs, and Apply Now.

Meet Pixie and Pepper. Not litter mates, just friends who play hard and can handle each other. Pixie is the more dominant one but Pepper can hold her own during play. Both girls are listed as approximately 6 month old Shepherd mixes. Both in need of training but are both very loving to their human friends. They are still very jumpy, but with proper training, it could be corrected. If you are interested in either pup, visit yorktonspca.com/our-dogs.html to submit your application on them and other dogs at the Shelter.

Are you looking for a security guard/alarm system? Meet Georgie, he comes with a built in system and is your typical little dog with big attitude. He is a 4.5 year old, Dachshund/Chihuahua cross. He was a puppy during Covid and because of that he wasn't socialized like he should have been. He does have some command training, although "No George!" doesn't seem to be on that list. He does take some time to get to know you and is especially nervous of men. He's cautious around all people but tends to warm up to women quicker. He would benefit from a quieter environment. We don't know how he is with small children so caution would be advised. He does enjoy his bathroom walks, we found out he is very fond of fetch, and following his humans friends everywhere, lol. If you are interested in Georgie, visit yorktonspca.com/our-dogs.html to submit your application for him and the other dogs at the Shelter.

Today's the day for our Fundraiser BBQ! While you're out and about stop by the Cornerstone Credit Union courtyard between 11am and 2pm. Grab a delicious Burger, Hot Dog, or a nice cold drink. The cost is by donation and there is also Debit/Credit on site. Your support is greatly appreciated. As always, thank you for "Helping Us, Help Them."

So many beautiful animals still awaiting their forever home. If you are considering a family addition, shoot over to our website yorktonspca.com and apply. The companion of your dreams is waiting for you! ❤️❤️ Featured is Hope, Betty, Shirley, Debra and Cybil..

Absolutely love these outdoor markets featuring local artisans. Don't miss it!
