Jake & Daisey's Raw Pet Food

Jake & Daisey's

In December 2007 RAPS decided to switch the diet of the dogs at the Richmond Animal Shelter. This decision was made based on research about raw food done by Christine, Sonya and Carol, but was also based on how much the dogs LOVED the food!

We're proud to say that all the dogs at RAPS have sleek, shiny coats and we believe that in general they are happier. We are also grateful to Jake & Daisey's for regularly donating raw bones to our shelter.

Helfer Wellness fund

Helfer Wellness Fund

Thanks to the generosity of Tricia and Tara Helfer, this fund was founded to help the Richmond Animal Protection Society ensure that homeless cats can receive the medical care they need. When cats have no one to care for them, medical problems can build up. RAPS rescues many of the animals from the street, and thanks to the Helfers, these animals will receive the veterinary care they require. RAPS would like to honour the Helfers for their generous donations.


BC Gaming Commission

BC Gaming Commission

RAPS gratefully acknowledges the financial assistance of the Province of British Columbia and the BC Gaming Commission for their generous support.
