Business ProfileforAlberta Animal Services

Someone took my dog off my property at the end of her terminal battle with cancer. The staff here lied to us, constantly changing their story to suit thier needs. I was informed the SPCA authorized her veterinary care and said she was taken from a property on rr 223i conviently live on the quarter between the 222 and rr223. They made false accusations of neglect saying the SPCA would not return the dog to me and was investigating a case of sevee neglect and malnutrition(the SPCA got the file 10 says later), The shelter would not acknowledge her failing kidneys or terminal cancer which I had veterinary reports one week old stating. Instead of allowing Ember to return and pass with her family, they came up with 600$ of vet bills, a animal at large fine and shelter fees to have her returned after saying I couldn't have her. The story changed I could take her home with a $1000 price tag. I had to choose between my children's Christmas and abandoning a family member. Embers last few days was extended to 2 weeks with vet visits, being in a cage and missing her family. We never got to say good bye and I would have come into town for her euthinizing so she wasn't alone. In a few months Miss Ember got sick fast. I feel like her best interests were ignored and my dog endured unethical treatment when she only has days left.
