Winnipeg, MB - Starting on December 18, 2014, City of Winnipeg Animal Services Officers will be visiting City parks to talk to Winnipeggers about responsible pet ownership. Animal Services Officers will be handing out both treats and educational materials.
“It’s important that all pet owners know about the Responsible Pet Ownership By-law, and our officers are excited to get out there and talk to people,” says Leland Gordon, Chief Operating Officer of the Animal Services Agency. “The officers will be heading to a number of different on and off-leash parks over holidays with pet treats in hand.”
The public is also encouraged to approach Animal Services Officers in City parks to talk about responsible pet ownership. Officers will give away additional cat treats to anyone who mentions “Whiskerpeg.”
