Barb definitely feels like part of the team here are Brampton Animal Services, helping out on a daily basis and coming out to lend a hand for all of our events. Barb is an amazing friend to our staff and cats, often having that special touch to get a shy kitten to come out of their shell so they can be adopted to a loving home. Barb has even come out to keep our staff company at the Farmer’s Market and help promote the shelter. Everyone here is so appreciative of Barb and her love and dedication to the shelter and our kitties.Please join us in giving Barb a HUGE Paws Up for all that she has done, and continues to do, every day. Thank you Barb!

Animals of all kinds have been a huge part of my life, I photograph them hoping to give them and their owners the same happiness I’ve experienced in my life.I began photographing at the Brampton Animal Shelter in the Summer of 2015. My first experience was amazing, the staff and animals are so friendly and welcoming. My very first subject was a tabby cat named Timmy, he was camera shy at first but was soon striking poses for me. My favourite place at the shelter is the kitten room, the kittens are spontaneous and speedy which makes them a challenge to photograph.I would recommend this position for anyone who has a passion for photography and animals, it’s such a rewarding experience.RaquelVolunteering at the Brampton Animal Shelter for the last year has been incredibly rewarding, it gives me a sense of contentment knowing that I could be making a difference in their little lives. Animals have been such a huge part of my life and I’ve always been a strong advocate for the nurturing, quality of life, and wellbeing of all animals. Their gentle nature and individual personalities make each experience so enjoyable! Spending time with them has been so therapeutic - as much as I help these animals, they seem to help me even more.Compliance Detailsjavascript:if (typeof CalloutManager !== 'undefined' && Boolean(CalloutManager) && Boolean(CalloutManager.closeAll)) CalloutManager.closeAll(); commonShowModalDialog('{SiteUrl}'+ '/_layouts/15/itemexpiration.aspx' +'?ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}', 'center:1;dialogHeight:500px;dialogWidth:500px;resizable:yes;status:no;location:no;menubar:no;help:no', function GotoPageAfterClose(pageid){if(pageid == 'hold') {STSNavigate(unescape(decodeURI('{SiteUrl}'))+ '/_layouts/15/hold.aspx' +'?ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}'); return false;} if(pageid == 'audit') {STSNavigate(unescape(decodeURI('{SiteUrl}'))+ '/_layouts/15/Reporting.aspx' +'?Category=Auditing&backtype=item&ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}'); return false;} if(pageid == 'config') {STSNavigate(unescape(decodeURI('{SiteUrl}'))+ '/_layouts/15/expirationconfig.aspx' +'?ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}'); return false;} if(pageid == 'tag') {STSNavigate(unescape(decodeURI('{SiteUrl}'))+ '/_layouts/15/Hold.aspx' +'?Tag=true&ID={ItemId}&List={ListId}'); return false;}}, null);0x00x1ContentType0x01898Document Set Version History/_layouts/15/images/versions.gif?rev=44javascript:SP.UI.ModalDialog.ShowPopupDialog('{SiteUrl}'+ '/_layouts/15/DocSetVersions.aspx' + '?List={ListId}&ID={ItemId}')0x00x0ContentType0x0120D520330Send To other location/_layouts/15/images/sendOtherLoc.gif?rev=44javascript:GoToPage('{SiteUrl}' + '/_layouts/15/docsetsend.aspx' + '?List={ListId}&ID={ItemId}')0x00x0ContentType0x0120D520350 Donate City of BramptonAnimal Services 475 Chrysler DriveBrampton, Ontario L6S 6G3 Phone: 905.458.5800 E-mail: animal.services@brampton.ca Contact Animal Services Hours of Operation
