Pawsitive Words About the Ontario SPCA and Humane Society Greater Sudbury Animal Centre!

Seamless adoption experience

“Amazing to adopt from. They care about pets finding a forever home. It was so easy to adopt. We went in looking to give a puppy a forever home. Asked us a few questions on the spot, let us meet some of the pups they had, and walked out the same day with a fur baby to add to our family. Will definitely adopt again.”

If you find a stray animal, please first contact the municipality’s animal control services for assistance. If there are no animal control services in place in the area where the animal was found, please reach out to our animal centre.

The Ontario SPCA does not have the legal authority to investigate concerns for the welfare of an animal.

If the animal’s life is in danger, call 911 immediately as this is an emergency.
