About this organization
In the spring of 2015, three Thunder Bay Ontario women who had been deeply involved in dog rescue came together to discuss a critical issue: many Northern Ontario communities had an overpopulation of dogs and cats because there were no veterinary services. No veterinarians meant dogs were breeding at will, many dogs were not healthy, many dogs were hungry, and an increasing number of dogs were aggressive and posing a danger to the communities. Feeding programs and rescuing these animals were only a band-aid to the bigger problem. These communities needed to receive proper veterinary services! The group of three women soon became a group of five and our Northern Spay Neuter Program was born. It started as an extension of The Feeding Program for Northern Dogs, a non-profit group that had been in operation in Thunder Bay for three years. Then it took on a life of its own!
