A bit about our Rescue:

Carter was an amazing dog, who happened to be a pit bull, who was brought to us for boarding. With the personal situation Carter’s owner was going through, he never returned to take him back. Carter lived his life out with us, here. Carter’s situation started us on a new venture and passion. Making sure all surrendered dogs, regardless of breed, are in safe, loving and caring homes. Dogs that are hard to place due to breed or age will always have a retirement home with us to allow them to live out their lives; happy, properly treated and cared for.

We hope to open up minds and hearts of people, to bring awareness to how remarkable the pit bull breeds are.

We are always in need of additional funding. All of our staff are volunteers so 100% of the donations we receive go to helping the animals. Only with your help can this wonderful work continue. If you wish to make a one time donation, or a monthly contribution you can do so on this page.

We are a registered Canadian Charity. Our registration number is 80997 5394 RR0001.

Much of our day-to-day operations funding comes from the adoption fees that we charge. In addition, we also run fundraising events to raise additional money. However, saving lives is expensive, so we are always extremely grateful for any financial donations that our supporters can make.

We also frequently run in to unforeseen expenses due to additional medical costs or other issues. Check our Sanctuary List to see if we currently have any rescue dogs that are under veterinary care that we could really use some financial help with!
