My dog hates being groomed, I was so shocked at how relaxed he was in the K9000. It was worth every penny. I feel really bad for THOSE PEOPLE who have nothing better to do but complain. Keep ur sob stories to ur self no one cares. I love the new building and it is so nice to be able to visit with all the animals. The staff were awesome! ! ! My family and I enjoyed this experience greatly. WAY TO GO EDMONTON HUMANE SOCIETY. looking forward to another visit.

This hardly looks anymore convenient than owners being soaked at home. Sour grapes? You bet! My licensed pet fees have a portion siphoned off to this organization that I do NOT support. If the Board of the Humane Society were doing their job, they would have been closing up shop permanently, instead of building a larger facility to house even more animals. Something isn't working and I'm tired of paying for it.
