Toronto, Ontario, Canada • 8 Employees
Nonprofit Organization Management

Established in 2016, Fetch + Releash is a volunteer based dog rescue dedicated to saving dogs in need. Our foster dogs come from a variety of different situations and locations such as shelters, strays and surrendered pets, both locally and abroad. Through our network of volunteers, foster homes, trainers and veterinarians, we strive to give every dog the loving forever family they deserve. As a foster-based rescue, our dogs live in private homes across the Greater Toronto Area where they receive the love and attention they need to ready them for adoption. Our vision is to allow dogs in our care the five essential freedoms: • Freedom from hunger and thirst. • Freedom from pain, injury and disease. • Freedom from distress. • Freedom from discomfort. • Freedom to express natural behaviors that promote well-being. OUR MISSIONADOPTIONBy collaborating with local and international communities, our mission is to save dogs in danger of homelessness, abuse, neglect or euthanasia. Once in our care, we match each dog with the loving forever family they deserve. ADVOCACYIn addition to re-homing dogs, we are passionate about advocating for animal rights and educating the public on relevant issues such as:- Backyard breeding- Overpopulation and the importance of spay & neuter - Chained animalsDogs are sentient beings with the right to nutritious food, a life enriched with adequate exercise and mental stimulation, veterinary care and love. EDUCATIONA dog is a lifetime commitment and not to be discarded due to health, lifestyle change or inconvenience. Some of the top reasons dogs end up in shelters are lack of training, lifestyle changes (i.e. new baby, marriage), relocation, cost of dog ownership, not enough time for pet etc. Our goal is to ensure our adoptive families are well versed in the realities of dog ownership and ready to make a lifetime commitment.
