The BC SPCA Board of Directors is currently reviewing the issue of private boarding at SPCA shelters and would appreciate your feedback as it moves forward with its decision. We recognize that private boarding is considered an asset by some branches, by assisting in raising revenues and providing services to the community. However, the Board must weigh this against the need to have kennel space available to transfer animals from shelters in the Interior and the North, where serious overcrowding results in the euthanasia of healthy, adoptable animals. We appreciate your input as we develop a policy on this matter in the very near future.
