Thank you for your support of the Guelph Humane Society, and the animals that we protect. In March, we asked you to reach out to your MPP to let them know how important it is that animals in Guelph and Wellington County continued to be protected, despite the OSPCA’s withdrawal from enforcement. We are happy to share that your voice was heard – you were the voice for the animals, who have no one else.

The Ontario Government has proposed an amendment to the Ontario SPCA Act (Bill 117), which if passed, would enable our organization to continue the enforcement work we are already doing to protect animals in Guelph and Wellington County. This temporary legislative measure will keep animals safe in the interim, while a more robust, transparent and accountable animal protection system can be developed for Ontario. This is what you asked for!

We are so excited to support the S&S Paint Works Third Annual Open House! All the proceeds from the event will go the GHS and help support our  animals in need in our community!

You asked and we listened! The S&S open house is back and it’s going to be the biggest one yet! Make sure you come down on July 6th for another great day of free BBQ lunch, big ticket and one off raffle prizes and of course, some of the [coolest] local cars, trucks and bikes! This is the first year we will be introducing the People’s Choice Award, so make sure your ride is looking it’s best! Don’t forget to bring some cash if you want to purchase any raffle tickets, bake sale items or if anything catches your eye at the ‘Garage Sale’. Remember all proceeds go straight to the Guelph Humane Society!

Can’t wait to see everyone there!!
