Rocky Road Rescue

Dog rescue in Ottawa, ON

Our goals are to rescue dogs from high-kill shelters, dogs without homes, and compassionate owner surrenders, to provide them with the medical care they deserve, as well as find them the best loving forever homes. We are also committed to educating the public on responsible pet ownership, and to give back to the community through assisting families in need whenever possible. We educate through our events & our Learn (www.rockyroadrescue.com/learn) page, and we also partner with other rescues as much as we can!

Rocky Road Rescue is a not for profit all-breed, foster-based, volunteer-run dog rescue in the Ottawa area. As a result of our dedicated foster families, all of our dogs live in a family environment.

Since we are not-for-profit, we raise funds through events and fundraisers, which allow us to continue to rescue dogs in need. One hundred percent of these funds go towards the purchase of food, vetting costs, shelter pull fees, and other costs associated with the general operation of the rescue.
