EDMONTON HUMANE SOCIETY(780) 471-177413620 - 163 Street NW, Edmonton, AB, T5V 0B2[We’re located on the corner of 137 Avenue & 163 Street]www.edmontonhumanesociety.com

Founded in 1907, the Edmonton Humane Society (EHS) is committed to helping homeless and abused companion animals, enlightening people and enriching lives. The Society’s Animal Protection Department enforces Alberta’s Animal Protection Act by responding to concerns within the City of Edmonton about animal neglect. The EHS also actively educates the public and provides tool to help them be responsible pet owners while at the same time, cares for approximately 13,000 homeless animals who come through its shelter doors each year. The Society greatly

charitable organization is not a local chapter to any organization and does not receive any regular government funding.

Animal ID: 47779Name: SashaAge: 2 yrs 7 monthsSex: FemaleSpecies: DogBreed: German Shepherd/Aus CattledogColor: Blonde and Brown

Sasha Included in the adoption fee:- Spay/Neuter surgery (done before being placed up for adoption)- Microchipping- First set of vaccines- Complimentary post-adoption vet exam- And so much more!

THi I'm Sasha! I'm a very active and loving girl in need of a great home. All my energy makes me very excitable and exuberant, I'm going to need lots of physical and mental exercise. Teenage kids would be the best �t for me, I can run with them when they ride their bikes, chase a ball, or roll around in the grass. I promise to bring them inside before the sun goes down, just before! ;)

We'll learn all about how to reign in my energy at our training classes here at the shelter. When I play with other dogs I can be a touch bossy but it's just because I'm so excited, it's a good idea to introduce me to other dog house mates before going home with you. Then we can play together properly so everyone has fun.

I love to play, play, play and go, go, go! So much so that I may venture out of the yard to make my own adventures. Please supervise my outside time! Of course knowing that I have lots of love from my new family will keep me at home. See you soon!!

Taking the time to explore your interests, take inventory your existing skills and experience, and research future labour market trends will pay huge dividends in your career satisfaction.

Alberta Works Week is a great opportunity for all of us to take a little time to revisit our career plans and make sure we’re still on track.

Even if you have already met your career goal, the fact is what we want from our jobs tends to shift as we age, start families, or near retirement.
