Nova Scotia SPCA PAW'dcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Have you ever wondered what it takes to build a new animal shelter? Join us for a chat with Heather Woodin, Chief of Animal Operations at the Nova Scotia SPCA where we barely scratch the surface on what it took to build the newest SPCA building, North Nova SPCA. It took a village, and this building is proof of that -from the ground digging (get it?) to the importance of the floors to the signs on the walls and fundraising. At the time this episode is out, we aren't yet open to the public, so follow our socials to find out when those dates are. Until then, if you want to learn more about the building and the hospital, you can visit www.novascotiaspca.ca/northnova and tartantailsvet.ca.

Join us for an impressive and heartfelt conversation about the animals that landed in Gander, Newfoundland on 9/11. Bonnie Harris from Gander SPCA shared the story of what happened in the days following the attacks and how their organization didn’t think twice about helping. There’re tears, laughs, gratefulness – all packed into an episode that will leave you wanting to know more. Or at least watch the musical Come From Away if you haven’t already. Please visit www.ganderandareaspca.com/ to learn more about their work and the current campaign for a new building.

Join us on an exciting episode about volunteering! Our own Catherine Brosha told us why our volunteers are the best, why the Nova Scotia SPCA keeps being voted as one of the best places to volunteer at, and how you can be involved. Also, our guest is a foster parent, having helped almost 50 cats and kittens over the years find loving homes. And all of this in time to celebrate the end of National Volunteer Week!

Join us for an episode all about thrift. Thrift Regional Manager, Anya Zub, is telling us all about the fascinating world of thrift, especially about the three (soon four!) Nova Scotia SPCA Thrift Stores across the province. She covers why thrifting is exciting, what our best-selling items are, and why people should donate, volunteer and shop in our thrift stores.

This episode covers everything Nova Scotia SPCA College of Animal Welfare. Barbara Hagan, instructor at the College, joined us to talk about her journey into the animal welfare industry, the change from the medical environment to teaching and why our Veterinary Assistant program is furr-tastic. By the end of this episode, you will for sure want to join our program.

Join us for an episode where we finally spill the secret. We have been bouncing on our heels trying to keep quiet about a change coming to the SPCA Veterinary Hospitals: rebrand.
