Who we are
Pound Dog Rescue is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and re-homing stray, abandoned and surrendered dogs in Southern Ontario pounds and low resource shelters. It is our mission to adopt these dogs out to loving, secure homes so that they never again deal with the devastation of being lost, homeless, or abandoned and facing certain euthanasia due to space limitations at overwhelmed pound facilities.

Our First Ever Golf Tourney!
July 23, 2022
We are super excited to announce our first ever PDR Golf Tourney as PDR celebrates 10 years of saving dogs!
Tell your golf buddies and save the date. It will be held at the beautiful Innerkip Highlands Golf Course.
We need prizes donated or sponsors. If you can help, please email pdrfundraising@gmail.com. Prize donations don’t have to be golf-related or dog-related, anything will be greatly appreciated, such as gift cards, large items, small items, anything we can make into prizes to be won. Thanks!!!
Donate Used Surgical Wear
We love the surgical wear option for our dogs to wear after their spays and neuters. It is so much nicer for the dogs than wearing cones. The only downfall is the cost, which really adds up for a small rescue. Do you have one you are not using? Would you donate it to us? We need all sizes. We will even repair a bit of damage.
If you are in the Kitchener Waterloo area, we will gladly pick up your donation. Contact us by email at pound.dog@gmail.com.
Or, if you are out of our area, surgical wear is lightweight to mail and regular postage should cover it. Please mail to Pound Dog Rescue, PO Box 261, Drumbo Ont. N0J 1G0.
Foster
We are in urgent need of fosters as we can only save as many dogs as we have foster homes for. All costs are covered by Pound Dog Rescue.
