Community Leaders and Urban Animal Issues

The industry is facing unprecedented changes to the way companion animals are entering and being served in urban Canadian communities:

• The developing online marketplace has disrupted the relationships between the traditional providers of dogs, cats, goods and services and the pet families they serve.
• Visits to healthcare providers are trending downward.
• The incidence of relinquishment and abandonment is trending upward.
• New regulations for breeders, retailers and other service providers are being implemented in many communities.
• Meanwhile, stakeholders are asking if the National Companion Animal Coalition (NCAC) speaks for the whole industry.

The conversations around these elements of the companion animal industry have not always been inclusive.  The 2012 Regional Summits for Urban Animal Strategies are positioned to gather the input of community leaders who have the best interests of a healthy community for pets and people in mind.
