Province Provides Funding for OSPCA

Ontario government is giving the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals five and a half million dollars to strengthen its protection for animals.

The money will go towards hiring more investigators to handle complaints from rural and northern communities.

There will also be a 24/7 dispatch service for residents to call about alleged animal abuse.

Specific attention will be also made on cracking down on puppy and kitten mills and better training for investigators in the agricultural sector.
