City of Surrey launches Paw Play in the Park Program

Darpan News Desk, 29 Jun, 2017 04:58 PM
    The Surrey Animal Resource Centre presents Paw Play in the Park at a park near you this summer. The City of Surrey fully supports our local canine community in enjoying our wonderful natural spaces in harmony with other residents. The event’s goal is to encourage good dog behavior in our park spaces and introduce our residents to positive ways to communicate with their pets.
     
    We believe educated and engaged dogs make better neighbours. Paw Play will bring expertise, tools, and resources to people in the community. Each event will be catered to the specific needs of the community it is taking place in. Pet owners will be provided with positive, fun and free activities to share with their animals, including free items (exchanging punitive training tools for humane ones), playing interactive games, answering questions about dog behavior and using local animal professionals to demonstrate fun safe activities people can engage in with their pets. There will also be dog agility, tricks, professional pet photographers, pet first aid instructors and people who can help you with some basic dog park etiquette as well.
     
    The Surrey Animal Resource Centre supports all animal owners in Surrey and by meeting dog owners in their neighbourhood we hope to increase awareness of our programs. The Surrey Animal Resource Centre secured a $15,000 grant from PetSmart Charities of Canada to pilot this community event.

    The dangers of suffering alone

    The dangers of suffering alone
    Many cultures (including Indian society) are plagued by occurrences of judgment, ridicule, and labelling whenever a shortcoming in one’s mental well-being is discovered. The individuals, who are suffering, become treated as an outsider which only further ostracizes them. This adds to the problem and a cycle of isolation and increased symptoms develops.

    It’s been 20 years in Canada for the Nairs and they describe is at being “absolutely wonderful.” Reminiscing on their journey, Domani believes they have come a long way since 1996. “We have no regrets moving here. We were able to sponsor my parents here from Bangalore [now Bengaluru] in 2000 and having them live with us was of great help when our daughters were born.”
