At the Bow Valley SPCA, we are dedicated to our core vision: to make a difference and change lives. Our mission is to provide a no-kill, no-cage adoption centre that shelters, cares for, and re-homes stray, surrendered, and abandoned dogs and cats while promoting humane attitudes and responsible pet companionship.
We believe that every animal is worthy of having their needs met and that a home exists for every pet. Our organization provides a safe haven for cats and dogs in the Bow Valley, offering them the love, medical care, and training they deserve until they find their perfect forever families.
We pride ourselves on our no-kill, no-cage philosophy at the Carla Cumming Sojonky Adoption Centre. By housing our animals in comfortable, dedicated rooms rather than traditional kennels, we create a stress-free environment that allows their true personalities to shine. We go beyond basic shelter, ensuring every resident benefits from specialized veterinary diets, consistent enrichment, and force-free, relationship-based training.
Adoption is a lifelong partnership, and our thoughtful process is designed to ensure the best fit for both you and your new furry companion. Our team works hard to understand the specific needs of every animal, and we invite you to view our online profiles to learn about their unique temperaments and household compatibility. We are here to support you in making a decision that sets everyone up for success.
Are you ready to find your new best friend? We invite you to visit our adoption centre in Canmore during our public hours to meet our wonderful cats or follow our application process to arrange a meeting with one of our dogs.
