Our Mandate
Broken Promises Rescue is a volunteer run, not-for-profit, animal rescue organization located in the lower Vancouver Island. We are a group of long time rescuers that have come together to focus on improving the lives of unwanted, neglected and orphaned animals on Vancouver Island (as well as remote communities and other areas of B.C. if our resources allow us to.) Currently we are seeing many pets overlooked in the shelter system because they have less than desirable qualities. They may have medical or behavioral issues or they may simply be the wrong color, age or breed. At Broken Promise Rescue we believe all animals deserve to experience a life without pain, loneliness or hunger and want them to know what it feels like to be loved and cherished, despite appearance, age or medical condition.
We are also dedicated to public education and raising awareness to help end the ongoing abuse, neglect and suffering. Educating children and adults about the responsibilities of animal ownership will go a long way in influencing public opinion on proper animal care, and help mold a more compassionate future. No animal should suffer at the hands of ignorance.

We help local homeless animals find forever homes. Our focus is on improving the lives of abandoned, neglected and orphaned animals on Vancouver Island (as well as remote communities and other areas of B.C. if our resources allow us to.) Be sure to go to our Animal Adoption pages to see who is looking for a new home.
Additional adoption info
The first step to all adoptions is an application form that needs to be filled in and sent back to us.
After the application is approved, you will be contacted for a home visit. A home visit is mandatory for all adoptions, this allows us to meet you and your family and discuss any special considerations for adding a new pet to your family.
If all goes well with the homevisit and the family and dog/cat are a good match for each other, we arrange a meet and greet.
If you decide after meeting him/her at that time would like to adopt, you can take him/her with you that day! There is an adoption contract and an adoptin fee. Please check out our website for more information.
We realize that to some our application process may be a bit more cumbersome but we hope that you can appreciate that these animals have all had a rough start in life and we are here to ensure that we find the best home for each animal and find the perfect match for you as well.
In order to do this we find the application form very helpful in finding the best fit for you both. The home visit is a way for us to meet you and as well answer any questions you may have and discuss the proper way to introduce the new animal into your home.
As you can imagine finding a home for these animals is difficult and our heart is in each and every one, so being able to meet you in person at your home is a way for us to find comfort and joy in placing them with you! We are not here to “sell” pets. We are here for their welfare and best interest and to find them a home for life!
We appreciate your cooperation and we hope you find this process worthwhile and take pride in knowing you are helping rescue an animal in need and that we together are helping make a difference in these animals’ lives.
