Current Events
Microchip Clinic | June 25
Save the date and join us at Pet Valu in Alliston Saturday, June 25th from 9:30am to 11:30am for a microchip clinic.
For $25 you can microchip your dog or cat. If your pet becomes lost, a microchip will enable you to identify them. A microchip is about the size of a grain of rice and has a unique ID number that is assigned to only your pet. Having your pet microchipped gives you a better chance to be reunited with them if they go missing.
Bring your cat in a carrier or dog on a leash. Proceeds will be going to support the Alliston & District Humane Society!
Royale® | Home for Every Pet Project
Each year, there are over 100,000 cats and dogs in need of adoption across Canada.* The Royale® Home for Every Pet Project raises awareness and funding for animal shelters across Canada to help find more shelter pets loving, fur-ever homes.
You could win $500 for you and $500 for an animal shelter of your choice! To register visit: royalehomeforeverypetproject.ca and upload your proof of purchase between March 15 and July 12, 2022.

One of Five Favourite Alliston Herald Photos
Alliston Herald reporter Brad Pritchard selected five of his favourite photos taken during 2021. Koba, a one-and-a-half-year-old Akita mix, was surrendered to the Alliston and District Humane Society in June. Jim Fryer is one of several volunteers who care for the animals at the shelter.
