It's amazing how much he has come out of his shell even during the time he has lived with us at the Hinton SPCA.

The Board of the Hinton and District SPCA

Boarding Check Out Time

The Board was forced to raise the boarding fees two months ago because of the increase in minimum wage. Upon reviewing our boarding fee structure it was decided to implement a boarding check out policy. Boarding check out is now by 11:00 a.m. daily. If you pick up your pet after 11:00 you will be charged for the day.  A check out time enables the SPCA staff to clean kennels prior to the end of shift.
