Weimaraner Association Of Canada - Rescue

WAC Rescue is a branch of the Canada's national breed club. It's run by volunteers and covers the entire country via Regional Coordinators.

We don't have a physical space so we rely on fosters to house dogs waiting for a new home. The Weimaraner Association of Canada - Rescue is a volunteer organization that is run by our Members. The Weimaraner Association of Canada is the Official National Breed Club for the Weimaraner in Canada. The Weimaraner Association had their first meeting on May 18, 1971, at the home of Isabelle and Armand K

irby in Scarboro, ON. The immediately worked towards club recognitions with the CKC. In 1977 the CKC made the club official. The club continued to grow, and today it is truly a National club with representation across the country. The primary functions of the club are to:
*assist and encourage owners in training their dogs in the many and varied venues that the Weimaraner can participate.
*to encourage using the Weimaraner for his natural purpose in the field.
*to improve the quality of the Weimaraner, physically and mentally through education and selective breeding practices.
*to assist Weimaraners in dire need through WAC Rescue. To this end, the Weimaraner Association of Canada has programs in place and hosts many events annually. These programs and events are most often specific to the Weimaraner and there are a few that are limited to members only. Please take the time to browse through our website to learn more about our wonderful breed and the things they can do! www.weims.ca

If you're looking to sacrifice your bed's elbow room or need a partner in crime who'll never judge you, or perhaps a running buddy who's always up for a 5 am jog with the best friend you've ever had! Please think about filling out our foster, adoption, or volunteer form, because you never know when your new partner in shenanigans will arrive through our program!

Ok l we are able to transport Ollie from Calgary to Edmonton area
And the New adopters are able to travel to Grand Prairie, so we now only need to find assistance from let’s say St Albert to Grand Prairie! Only 441 k to cover ! I will see if I can ask friend to ask friend of a guy he knew that lives in white court ! I may be able to ask for a favour if they are around! I was sure that the homemade baking was enough! Good things happen when we do good things , yes it’s Christmas! It’s the spirit of what Christmas means ! Ollie and every Weim owner worldwide well at least AB and Bc know how much they need the love and give it and this dog has some lost time to make up for!
He’s the reason , once you go Weim , you never go back ! Let’s all help our Ollie get home for X mas

A fatal case of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has been confirmed in a dog in Alberta — the second confirmed case in Canada. While HPAI primarily affects birds, it can also infect domestic animals, including pets, through contact with, or ingestion of, infected wild birds.

What you can do to keep your pet safe:
- Keep pets away from wild birds and carcasses,
- Avoid feeding raw poultry or unpasteurized milk,
- Contact your veterinarian if your pet shows respiratory or neurological symptoms.

Cats are particularly vulnerable, with cases often linked to infected birds or raw pet food. Farm cats can be early indicators of HPAI on dairy or poultry farms, so monitor their health closely.

Learn more about HPAI and how to help protect animals by visiting the Government of Alberta website: https://www.alberta.ca/h5n1-avian-influenza-in-alberta

Rowan update
Rowan, originally Beck, came into our system in 2024 and through no fault of his, he didn't find his perfect home until earlier this year. WAC Rescue thanks Adel K. for her support in fostering Rowan twice until we found the best match.

Here is the latest from Rowan's dad, David L.:
Rowan is doing great with me in Calgary. He enjoys his off leash walks spending the time exploring his surroundings. Sometimes he meets up with one of his many friends and he plays the game of catch me. At night he's happy to cuddle up with me and sleep by my side. He is a great addition to my life.

Thank you, David, for giving Rowan such a good life!
