4 Love of Canines:

We are a group of Ontario based volunteer rescuers who have been saving lives and promoting responsible pet ownership for over 25 years.

We are a humane, all breed rescue that provides quality foster care to homeless and owner surrendered pets until we are able to match them with suitable pre-screened adopters, and place them into loving and permanent new homes.

4 Love of Canines All Breed Rescue is a no-kill, not for profit organization that is run by volunteers and funded by donations.

Our Mission is to cater to the best interest of our canine companions while maintaining the highest quality of service to both pet owners and adopters.

What We Do:

4 Love of Canines associates are responsible for maintaining any number of dogs that we may currently have in our programs, promote pet responsibility and awareness, offer consultations on a variety of pet related issues with pet owners and adopters, liaise with other rescues and shelters, and maintain the web site.

We accept homeless and owner surrendered pets from anywhere within Southern Ontario, and from shelters or private rescues throughout Canada and the USA.

With our many years of dog related experience and our dedication to promoting the happiness and security of companion animals, our goal is to educate pet owners on matters of breed specifics, health, obedience and general canine care and to help them understand that making the decision to own a dog requires a life time commitment to the pet. At times, the support and training offered to pet owners is enough for them to continue working with their pets thereby alleviating the need for placement.

Once a dog is accepted into our program it is placed into a loving home environment where it will receive any medical attention needed, basic training, and TLC.

As some of the dogs are coming from an institutionalized environment they gain skills and abilities that enable them to become respected and capable companions.

Evaluations provided by foster parents throughout a dog's stay track the progress in regards to physical health, temperament, vices and specific needs. Along with our in-depth screening of potential adopters, we are able to ensure every placement is a good match for both the pet and the adopter.

After placement our interest continues and every adoption is followed up to ensure the pet is positively integrated into its new home. As well, we contact the previous owners to give them closure and peace of mind knowing that their decision to place their pet with 4 Love of Canines has helped to ensure the future happiness and security of their pet.
