Ontario SPCA Assists ASPCA in Cruelty Case
Involving Over 1,000 Animals
The Ontario SPCA sent members of its Rescue &
Relief team to Massachusetts on July 29 to assist the ASPCA® (American Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) in the largest-ever farm cruelty
case in the Northeast United States.
The Ontario SPCA provided support to the ASPCA and Westport
Police Department. Together, they cared for and sheltered more than 1,000 farm
animals, including pigs, horses, rabbits, sheep and cows, as well as dogs, cats
and fish, that were found on the 70-acre property

Working
together to help horses find homes
When caring for a dozen horses became overwhelming for
an elderly couple from Eastern Ontario, the Ontario SPCA and the local
equestrian community came together. The goal is to find new homes for some of
their horses to keep the couple’s herd at a size they can manage.
Christine Allard from Forever Green Stables in Glen
Robertson, ON stepped up to welcome five horses into her stable.A senior
Miniature Horse and a 15-year-old Quarter Horse have already been adopted,
while three others are still in need of homes.
If you are interested in adopting one of these horses,
please contact Christine Allard at Forever Green Stables
