Construction is underway on a new state-of-the-art facility in Collingwood that will deliver five times more affordable veterinary surgeries and support five times more families in crisis.

The Georgian Triangle Humane Society (GTHS) has officially broken ground on the new David and Helen Capin Regional Centre for Pets and People (RCPP), a facility that aims to meet the growing demands of the region.

“Today’s groundbreaking is not just the start of a building project—it’s the beginning of a much-needed new chapter for our community,” said Karen Marsh, executive director of GTHS. “Our current facility on Tenth Line is overcrowded and stretched to its limits. Thanks to the generosity of our donors, volunteers, and partners, we are creating a space that will help thousands more animals and people each year, and we’re excited to build on this momentum as we focus on raising the rest of the funds needed.”
