Update on Lucky 191
Back in early November, the Ontario SPCA shared a story of Lucky 191, a dog found in distress curled up under a tree in the Town of Aurora.
He was found by Constable Natashia McLellan, who quickly determined that the dog had been victim of a suspicious circumstance and required immediate medical attention and called the Ontario SPCA.

Betsy Finds a Loving Home
This long legged Basset Hound was a frequent visitor to the Ontario SPCA Renfrew County Branch.
As a hound with new scents to check out, Betsy’s travels sometimes took her a long way from home and often put her in danger when she wandered onto the road.

Agent Goes Above and Beyond the Call of Duty
An animal`s welfare is definitely top of mind for Ontario SPCA Agent Bryan. After responding to a cat at large in the Aurora area, rather than simply pick up the cat and bring him in to the shelter, Bryan decided to create posters and post them through out the neighbourhood where the cat was found. The cat`s owners saw the poster and were reunited with their pet.
Kudos to Bryan for going over and above the call of duty!
