The P.E.I. Humane Society wants pet owners to know that help is available if they are finding it tough to provide their pets with the care they need.
The reminder comes after a guilty plea last week in a case of animal neglect in Summerside.
The Humane Society says pet owners should talk to a veterinarian if their pet is having health issues — and if there’s difficulty in providing proper care, the animal can be surrendered to the Humane Society for free.
