GUELPH, ON, September 20, 2023. Due to a software failure, lost pet reports submitted to the Guelph Humane Society (GHS) during the month of September may not have been received.
GHS is urging pet owners that are looking for their missing pets to resubmit information regarding their lost pet.
“Our primary goal is to ensure that any pet is reconnected with their family as quickly as possible,” says Lisa Veit, GHS Executive Director. “We apologize if this failure in technology has delayed this effort. We are working hard with our service provider to correct this issue as quickly as possible.”
The GHS team performs multiple lost checks for each stray animal during their impoundment period and cross checks all stray animals with lost reports collected to match pets with those that may be looking for them.
Owners are asked to resubmit lost reports by emailing missing pet information to lostandfound@guelphhumane.ca or by calling 519-824-3091. A complete list of missing pet information that needs to be included can be found at www.guelphhumane.ca
