Calgary Humane Society urges increased dog adoptions

The Calgary Humane Society is urging for more dog adoptions as its kennels have been full for over a week. The shelter has been using foster care and a temporary "sleepover" program to manage the situation. In the past week, only 12 dogs were adopted, while the shelter continues to receive more dogs needing care. Currently, about 45 dogs are at the shelter, with an additional 25 to 40 in foster homes. The "sleepover" program allows potential adopters to take a dog home for a week at no cost. This initiative aims to help families decide on adoption while temporarily easing the shelter's capacity issues.
