We have to share 1 more feel Good Friday!
Oliver and his foster family. Safety, love, comfort and trust. ❤️❤️❤️
A picture speaks a thousand words.
Last but not lease for our feel Good Friday medical updates is baby Bono.
Bono was super lucky to have his care done at Almonte Veterinary Services with Dr.Clark.
Little Bono came into care with a broken leg.
Dr Clark repaired his leg and added pins. Bono is heeling nicely in his foster home and will soon be able to start meeting potential adopters.
Bono says huge thank you for supporting his fellow medical cases.
With your donations even if it’s $1 a day, we are able to help these sweet souls that need it the most.
Thank you
Feel Good Friday now brings the boy I’m sure your all waiting for an update on!!
WHISKEY!!!!! The boy who almost died from swallowing a ball.
Whiskey is now completely heeled and ready to start his new life:
Huge thank you to Animal Emergency & Speciality Hospital and Alta Vista Animal Hospital for all your care for whiskey. The ups and downs while we all waited for him to pull through.
For those who don’t know whiskey. He needed surgery to have a ball removed. During his surgery the vets realized that a part of his intestine was dead and needed to be removed. Whiskey was pretty sick but pulled through thanks to all the thoughts/prayers and amazing vetting teams.
Whiskey wants to thank you for everyone who donated.
We were able to raise $5621 to go towards his $15000 bill
Thank you so much
Another Fee god Friday!
Remember Tyson?
Tyson came into care as an emergency as well.
Sweet little Tyson came into care with bladder stones. Thanks to Eagleson Tyson is now ready for adoption (awaiting his vaccines)
He had surgery to have the stones removed.
Tyson wants to say thank you to all his supporters for their donations
We were able to raise $245 of his $5500 invoice.
Thank you
Welcome our first Feel Good Friday.
Who better to start it off other then the one and only Oliver the survivor!
Oliver is now at home with his foster family getting all the love and affection that he wants. He has settled and and claimed foster moms bed as his own.
This guy is such a trooper!!
Again we cannot thank the staff at Animal Emergency & Speciality Hospital for everything they have done.
Oliver wants to give a huge thank you to all his supporters and donations for his care.
His emergency care cost $2496.17
We raised $4445.00
Oliver and us are so extremely grateful
Thank you ❤️

Thank you to our Alumni Cricket’s family for their continuous generous donation towards our pups in care in the honour of little Cricket!
Remember little Lola who came in emaciated.
Look how great she’s starting to look. ❤️
Her foster dad has been helping her break out of her shell and put on some weight.
Welcome to Pualunguaq
Pualunguaq is an adult female - she is a small mixed breed
She came to us from sahsmar paws
Welcome Wednesday to Nora
Nora is a female and 3 months old. She is a small breed X
She came to us from SashMar paws
We have great news to start our welcome Wednesday!!!!!
Our sweet Oliver from yesterday should be released and on his way to his foster home tonight!!!!
We cannot thank the Animal Emergency and Speciality Hospital enough for helping him and loving him. You have truly shown him what it is to be cared for and that not everyone will be cruel.
Medical update:
Seems our sweet vizsla x oliver has no brain damage, no fractures and all in all it doing great.
All your thoughts and prayers have helped!
He is amazing vet staff are making sure his electrolytes are good.
He will need very slow intro to food. Small amounts cause they aren’t sure how long he’s been without food.
Thank you all so very much for reaching out and supporting our medical cases.
As of early this morning we have raised $3000 towards him. However haven’t had the chance to tally up the totals.
We believe that you have all donated more the. His vet bills. If that is the cause we will definitely be able to help the next emergency case in need.
Have you ever considered fostering? Sometimes we have to turn away babies like Oliver, whiskey and Lola for lack of foster homes. If you are interested please email us at [email protected].
Thank you again to his foster mom for jumping into action to open her home, freedom drivers (without the amazing drivers he wouldn’t have made it so fast to Ottawa), all the vetting staff and No paw left behind ❤️. It really does take a village and everyone to save 1 life.

Our Story
Freedom Dog Rescue is a small, non-profit, all-breed dog, all-size foster based rescue which was founded in Ottawa, Ontario in February 2015.
Charity # 783761323RR0001
Our fosters and volunteers are the heart and soul of Freedom Dog Rescue, and the reason we are able to successfully rescue and adopt out so many deserving dogs. We truly are like a family of friends and in some cases we actually are family and it's just so amazing that we can share our passion together and have so much fun doing so.
Being a foster based rescue means that any dog in care with us is placed in a loving foster home and not in a kennel environment. We strongly believe that they have gone through enough struggles and hardship in their lives and all of our foster families are devoted to showing and teaching the dogs in our care how to be part of a family and feel loved. We are so appreciative of our foster families who work very hard to give these dogs a second chance at a happy life.
Freedom Dog Rescue’s adoption process is fairly extensive because we really want to make sure every dog is going to their forever home, and that they are the perfect fit for our adopters. If any of our dogs ever needed to be returned we will always take them back without hesitation or judgment.
For more information on the adoption process, please go to the adoption process page.
We are extremely grateful for your endless support in helping Freedom Dog Rescue become who we are today and what we will become in the future.
