Abandoned Dogs

SPCA takes in puppies found on highway

Feb 8, 2020 | 8:00 AM

The Prince Albert SPCA are asking for donations after five puppies were left on the side of a highway near the shelter.

According to a Facebook post, a passerby noticed the estimated six-week-old dogs abandoned on the side of the road, picked them up and took them to the SPCA.

The puppies are too young to be away from their mother so the SPCA are looking for dry puppy food and milk replacer.

“It is crushing seeing these little ones abandoned and discarded like they are worthless,” the post reads. “But we are happy to know they are safe now and will have brighter futures ahead of them.”

They’re not available for adoption at this time but the shelter said they are actively looking for a foster home. Those who are interested in fostering can send an application and join the SPCA’s Facebook Foster Team Group.

They’re now accepting donations and can be made in person at the SPCA, on Facebook, or by etransfer to manager@princealbertspca.ca.
