Paws to Rescue

Paws to Rescue works along side different animal rescue resources and First Nation Communities to addresses the interconnection between human, animal and environmental health that will focus on providing much- needed access to veterinary services and assistance in animal control in rural and First Nation communities. Working together to advocate for the animals and communities’ welbeing.

​

Together, we will help address human health and safety, access to spay/neuter, animal health and prevent disease and zoonotic transmission. By addressing the barriers faced by communities in accessing veterinary care and other animal health interventions, not one person can do this on their own.

​

Working with different rescues and non-profit organizations we would like to promote:

·         Spay and Neuter Clinics/ Appointments

·         Surrender dog and cat intakes

·         Vaccinations

·         Medication to treat manage, fleas, ticks, worms, heart worm preventative etc.

·         Promote knowledge sharing regarding animal health

·         Pet food/ food insecurity

·         Doghouse optimization

·         Community-based animal health and programming

Operating from a community-engaged and reconciliation framework and working with Indigenous communities to provide access to affordable veterinary in community; we will address the Truth and Reconciliation Call to Action 19 (Health) to ‘close the gaps in health outcomes between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities.
