Taber Lost Paws Society is a no-kill, non-profit dog rescue and animal control organization based in Taber, Alberta, serving both the Town of Taber and the surrounding Municipal District as of 2022.

💙 What They Offer:

• Care for dogs found “at large,” unclaimed, or surrendered via animal control protocols—they currently do not accept owner surrenders directly.
• Each adoption includes spay/neuter surgery, current vaccinations, microchipping (transferred to your name), and support from their kennel manager through the adoption process.
• Adoption fees are structured by dog age/status: puppies (~9 months): CAD 475, adult dogs: CAD 400, seniors (8–9 years+): CAD 250, bonded pairs: CAD 500. These fees include medical services like de-worming and booster shots when needed.

✅ Helpful Tips for Prospective Adopters or Volunteers

• Start by contacting them first to request adoption or fostering forms—don’t just show up.
• Take advantage of their “foster-to-adopt” trial periods, which help ensure a good match between dog, existing pets, and your household; final adoption typically occurs within two months.
• Microchipping and licensing are encouraged: microchips are available locally (approx. CAD 35), and dog licensing in Taber costs around CAD 50–100 depending on whether your dog is spayed/neutered.
• If you’re interested in volunteering (feeding, walking, cleaning), fostering, or sponsoring a kennel, you’ll find clear information and sign-up forms on their website.

We hope this directory has successfully guided you to the animal shelters and rescues in Taber. Every adoption, donation, or hour volunteered makes a profound difference in the lives of animals awaiting their forever homes.
