Click here for a list of pets at this shelter We are a Central Alberta based "No Kill" Shelter providing for an option to euthanasia for Pound Rescues and Owner Surrender animals. We operate on a six acre highway frontage parcel bordering the Town of Lacombe. Our highway frontage signage advertisement advantage and our proximity to the city are but two of the factors that have enabled us to celebrate our tenth year of successful operation with our unique "No Kill" polocies.

A Success Story

Central Animal Services is proud to announce that a total of four of our owner surrender and pound rescues have found thier place as a Patrol Service K-9s. Once misunderstood and sentanced to death a young adult German Shepherd dog and three Rottwiellers, were selection tested and found to possess a driven, desire to work and placed in training. Given a real chance , with competancy and understanding they have more than proven thier worth. Thier calling ....a deep instinct to serve & protect will put to good use in our community and may very well be a life saver. In addition two more of our rescues a young Belgian Malanois "Kito" and a 3yr old German Shepherd Dog "Kruz" were off to Texas early in the fall of 2006 to attend a police dog training academy. Both of which saw success in the spring of 2007achieving certification as dual purpose patrol k-9 and Narcotics detection dogs. Both K-9 officers "Kruz" and "Kito" and and their handler K-9 officer "Kyla Mykytiw " Canadian Director of the "K-9 Strike Unit" and GAP (Gifted Animal Placement) Diagnostician, certified for patrol and narcotics detection with "Detection K-9 of America", The DFW Parker County K-9 "Strike Unit" and went on to acheive thier national cerification threw the NNDDA , National Narcotics Dog Association, as required of all K-9 law enforcement officers serving the Dallas FortWorth metroplex K-9 alliance.
