Whistler
Animals Galore (WAG) was founded in 1982 when two friends identified
the need for an animal rescue service in the Sea-to-Sky corridor.
Since then, WAG has grown into a fully-fledged non-profit and registered
charity organization that cares for and rehomes hundred of animals
each year. It also partners with the Resort
Municipality of Whistler by providing animal control services,
and PAWS in Pemberton.
Mission
Statement - To protect and enhance the lives of lost, unwanted,
and homeless animals.
Vision
- To bring about a time in our communities when all animals are
treated humanely and with respect, and when every cat or dog ever
born is guaranteed a loving home for the duration of its life.
Values
- Respect. All animals should be treated
with respect, as one would treat another person. Accountability.
WAG holds itself accountable to its donors as well as to the animals
for which we care, for the duration of their lifetime. Similarly,
all members of our community should be held accountable for their
actions towards animals. Quality of Life.
Our daily mission is to ensure that we do all in our power to ensure
a high quality of life for the animals in our care, including quality
medical care, training, socialization, basic care, and exercise.
