Dating is going to the dogs! The City of Winnipeg’s Animal Services department is looking for people to take their residents on “doggie dates” to help improve their quality of life at the overcrowded shelter and help them find a forever home. You can take out a dog for the day or longer by leaving a deposit with the shelter. It’s a good way to see if the pet is a match and give the dogs some much-needed exercise time.
Gordon said the shelter is extremely over capacity right now, “Once we start getting up to like 30, 40, we have to make our cages smaller. We have more difficulty giving those dogs a great quality of life while they’re in our facility.”
Animal Services is also looking for experienced owners to foster dogs for a week or longer. More information can be found online.
