  • Summary

  • The Calgary Model is a world-leading approach to keeping people safe from animals and animals safe from people. This inter-agency model relies on close cooperation between the bylaw services within Calgary police and Calgary Humane Society.


    Brad Nichols says: “The Calgary Model centres around owner responsibility.” We chat about how the collaboration came up and how the two agencies are achieving court victories to ensure animal protection laws are upheld. Brad also explains why breed-specific legislation doesn’t work and the risks to dogs and people that these badly thought-out laws pose.


    We also talk about the increased pet abandonment situation since the end of the pandemic, and Brad talks candidly about the reactions he sees from owners.


    Listen to this episode and the following with Brad’s counterpart, chief bylaw officer Ryan Plekaitis, for part two on the Calgary Model.
