Alberta partnership features on OSPCA Pawdcast

The partnership between Alberta Animal Services and Petland Red Deer continues to see adoption successes on many levels. And with the grand opening of an AAS Adoption Centre, located within the retail store's walls, on the horizon, success in the future is almost guaranteed. 

Amy Pawson of Petland and Erica Coomber of Alberta Animal Services sat down with Kevin MacKenzie, host of OSPCA's Animal's Voice Pawdcast last week to shed some light on the partnership and what the goals are for both organizations. 


This collaborative effort has been recognized by Urban Animal alumni throughout the years with a 2011 Summit Award for Community Collaboration as well as a nomination for a 2013 Summit Award for Sheltering. Both Amy and Erica were invited to present to Urban Animal subscribers during the 2013 Regional Innovation Showcase in Calgary and their address was nominated by their peers to showcase on a national level at the 2013 Summit for Urban Animal Strategies.
