First Nations Companion Animal Spay/Neuter & Education Programs Rescue for Life

Implementation of a Spay/Neuter Pilot Project will lead to humane control over the population of companion animals in First Nation communities. This in turn will lead to a reduction in the numbers of companion animals being destroyed and will lead to a healthier living population of animals. The pilot project will be implemented with support from veterinary clinics.

Providing families in First Nation communities with a Responsible Pet Ownership Education Program is as vitally important.  Topics will include the importance of spaying/neutering, providing food, water, and shelter; and the effects of animal abuse. 

The continuance of our Remove and Rehome Program will remove animals from the communities that are no longer wanted where they will then be adopted out to forever families.

Our goal is to provide a long-term change in these communities. 

Implementation of a spay/neuter pilot project will lead to control over the population of companion animals in First Nation communities. This in turn will lead to a reduction in the numbers of companion animals being destroyed and will lead to a healthier living population of animals. A spay/neuter program will reduce the packing up of animals and will lead to a safer community with less aggression issues towards other dogs, cats, and children. A smaller population will put community members in a better position to properly take care of these animals. The education program will bring awareness to communities on responsible pet ownership. The goal is to reduce the suffering caused by overpopulation by getting to the root of the problem, which is a lack of spayed/neutered animals and a lack of awareness in the communities.
