Ottawa Dog Rescue is an Ottawa, Ontario foster-based organization dedicated to saving abandoned, neglected & abused dogs. We all enter into Rescue with the best of intentions, and we will endeavor to:

Rescue dogs from situations that are deemed abusive, dangerous or neglectful.

Rescue dogs in danger of being euthanized at area shelters/pounds.

Place rescued dogs into well-matched, carefully screened, permanent adoptive homes.

Provide all the necessary veterinary care for the dogs taken into our care.

Provide support for dogs in need through our adoption and fostering programs.

Offer the Owner Surrender Program as an alternative for dog owners who are no longer willing or able to keep their dogs and are considering surrendering them to a shelter or animal control facility.

Educate and promote the importance of spaying/neutering companion animals, positive behaviour training, good canine nutrition and raising awareness within the community on how to help prevent animal cruelty.
