Established in September 2001,The Bytown Association for Rescued Kanines (B.A.R.K.) is an all breed "no kill" rescue organization.We are a registered charity comprised solely of dedicated and experienced volunteers.
The primary focus of our organization is...
~ the rescue and rehabilitation of abused or abandoned dogs in the Ottawa area;
~ to provide a support system for families to try to keep dogs in their original homes;
~ to find new homes, on a limited basis and as space permits, for unwanted dogs;
~ to educate children and adults on how to choose and care for a pet, how to behave around an unknown dog, and what to do if a dog chases you.
We uphold a "no kill" policy for all animals that come under our care, so we keep animals in their foster homes until they can find their forever home
