Northwest Territories SPCA

A common mis-understanding is that we, the NWT SPCA, own, care for, and adopt-out the animals at the Great Slave Animal Hospital (GSAH). Although we do play a part in advertising the adoptable pets, and assisting in their socialization while they are impounded, the animals are all owned by the GSAH.

The staff at the GSAH spend countless hours caring for these pets, and ensuring that they all go the best homes possible. The adoption process is completely handled by the GSAH. However, the NWT SPCA does arrange 'meet-and-greets', and you will always find one or more of us at the GSAH usually on Saturdays between 11 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. chillin' with our furry friends!!

If you would like to arrange for a meet and greet, or even get help completing your adoption application, please feel free to contact us!
