We’re Building More Than a Shelter.

Regina will become a model city with a fully integrated Animal Community Centre. The first of its kind in Canada.

So much more than four walls and a roof

The Animal Community Centre will be the best place to adopt a pet, learn about, engage with, and celebrate animals.

When you walk through the doors of the new Animal Community Centre, you will feel joy rather than despair. It will be a place where people can find,  bring, care for, learn about and celebrate the animals that enrich our lives.

The Animal Community Centre will be a community hub – a Centre that engages youth and families, provides support and services, teaches new skills, inspires positive action and responsibility, instills humane values, and builds community.

A signature feature within the new facility, is the Centre for Humane Education & Wellness, a community amenity providing much-needed multi-use spaces. Classrooms, a catering kitchen and garden, to support Regina Humane Society programming and are additionally available for public use. School groups and the public will be drawn in through camps, courses and events taking place in the education spaces. Families will learn from and enjoy interactive exhibits, and our volunteers will have greater opportunities to contribute in meaningful ways.

The best place to learn about, engage with, and celebrate animals.

VETERINARY CARE CENTRE

A fully equipped veterinary clinic will support animal intake, rescue, outreach and adoption services. The Veterinary Care Centre will provide medical care to over 4,000 homeless, abused and neglected pets annually. The Centre includes a preparation and treatment area, surgery suites, imaging room and clinic pharmacy along with multiple exam rooms and recovery areas. 

ANIMAL SERVICES CENTRE

With a separate entrance off of the Pet Plaza, the Animal Services Centre admits stray animals, assists people looking for lost pets and accepts owner relinquished pets. The lobby area provides separate waiting areas for both dogs and cats to support health and safety while reducing animal stress.

PET LOSS SUPPORT CENTRE

The facility’s Pet Loss Support Centre is a respectful space designed for comfort and peace to help those dealing with the grief of losing their pet. Located on the southwest corner of the Centre with a private entrance, this area provides support to pet owners as they make decisions regarding cremation and memorialization of their beloved family member.

The Regina Humane Society’s Almost Home Capital Campaign is the largest fundraising effort in its 58-year history. The Campaign brings together like-minded individuals, companies and organizations with a singular goal – the construction of a new Animal Community Centre. Led by a volunteer team of accomplished community leaders, the Almost Home Campaign welcomes all who care about the most vulnerable animals in our community. 

WE CAN’T GET HOME
WITHOUT YOU
