Hobo Haven Rescue, located in St Jacobs ON was founded in 2003, and is dedicated to our mission of “no dog left behind”

We are known as a medical rescue, accepting dogs into our program with serious medical needs, to provide them with all of the medical care, rehab and TLC they require to recover and thrive before they are ready for their new lives as beloved, cherished family members in forever homes.

Hobo Haven Rescue is a foster based dog rescue group of dedicated volunteers devoted to assisting homeless dogs to help them find new forever homes within Ontario Canada. We do not import pets, we focus on our local communities within to provide support to dog owners needing to surrender their dogs and to rural pounds and shelters needing assistance for unclaimed strays or dogs who would thrive best in a foster home environment.

We are not a shelter or kennel, we are entirely foster home based, offering each dog in our care as much love and TLC as we do our own, provided by carefully screened foster families who are equally passionate about making a difference in the lives of dogs in need.

We cannot do it alone. Please consider fostering, transporting, volunteering, adopting or fundraising to help us help more.

IT TAKES A VILLAGE Our amazing team of volunteers are small but mighty, and genuinely committed to helping our animals by providing a safe haven where their new lives may begin again, after we provide each dog with necessary veterinary care, rehab and training.

Passion for animals brings us together. It is seeing the difference we make for every precious soul entrusted to our care, one by one, that fuels that passion.
