Our community is so full of kindness! This is Koen, along with his Dad and their dog, Maggie. Koen and his sister usually raise money for local charities every holiday - but since they couldn't raise money this year due to COVID restrictions, a generous neighbour gave Koen and his sister $50 each to "help others". Koen decided to give his $50 to GHS. Thank you for helping the animals, Koen! #guelphgives

#WILDLIFEWEDNESDAY #DYK squirrels can have two litters each year? Squirrels will have one litter of babies in the spring, and generally will have another litter of babies in the fall. If squirrels have nested in an inconvenient location, do not move the nest yourself. Instead, try these humane harassment techniques from Toronto Wildlife Centre to encourage mom to move her & her babies elsewhere: http://ow.ly/sW3m50CjWZp ... Need some professional help? Our friends at Skedaddle Humane Wildlife Control can help safely remove unwanted guests. . . . #Wildlife #WeLoveAnimals #Squirrel #Nesting #Guelph #WellingtonCounty

#DYK contrary to what cartoons have told us, rabbits do not live off carrots! Carrots are high in sugar and should only be fed as a treat to your pet.

Butterscotch, a thirteen-year-old poodle mix, came through our doors desperately in need of help. He was matted and was in a lot of pain. His teeth were in such horrible condition, they were infected and falling out. Poor Butterscotch needed urgent care, dental surgery, ultrasounds, blood work and more. All of his care was possible thanks to generous donors like you! Though Butterscotch has been adopted and has his Happy Tail there are still hundreds of animals in our care w...ho need your help. Donate today to have your gift matched! . . . #WeLoveAnimals #GuelphGives #Donate #HolidayMatch #ThankYou
