Just Paws Animal Rescue

Animal rescue in Toronto, ON

Our mission is to rescue and rehome unwanted, abandoned, abused and unloved pets that find themselves alone and frightened in shelters. These animals give unconditional love and should receive the same love back. Unfortunately there is a need and while ever there is a need we will be there to help. Our long term goal is to build towards the opening of our own shelter and be able to help with behavioral issues, special needs, and to offer a haven to less adoptable pets. We are always very thankful for any pet related donations to assist the animals in our care

Rescue FAQs

We are a foster based rescue organization, based in the Toronto and surrounding areas. We have volunteers in many areas and work in conjunction with other rescues to facilitate transport, home visits with the pet you are interested in.

Additional adoption info

We have an application process. All applications are subject to reference checks, home checks prior to meeting any of our dogs. All adopters are required to sign an adoption contract and must adhere to requirements stated in this contract, and follow ups are done post adoption. Our rescue is solely run by volunteers, we strive to return calls and inquiries within a 24 hour period. You will be contacted only if the foster family believes you may be a match.
