Fetch + Releash

Fetch + Releash is a not-for-profit organization that assists in the rescuing and re-homing of dogs. WE RESCUE AND REHOME!

Fetch + Releash is a volunteer run dog rescue dedicated to saving dogs in need. Our foster dogs come from a variety of different backgrounds such as shelters, strays and surrendered pets, both locally and abroad. Through our network of volunteers, foster homes, trainers and veterinarians, we strive to give every dog the loving forever family they deserve. As a foster-based rescue, our dogs live in private homes across the Greater Toronto Area where they receive the love and attention they need to ready them for adoption.

📸💕 New glamour shots, same special girl! 💕

Kika recently had some new glamour shots taken, and we couldn't resist sharing them! Just look at that beautiful face!

Behind those gorgeous photos is a very special girl who is STILL searching for her forever home!

Kika isn't looking for just any home. She needs a unique situation where she can feel safe, comfortable and truly thrive. Her needs may be different, but that doesn't make her any less deserving of a loving forever family!

🐾 Meet Kika!
Female | 4 years old | 60 lbs | Terrier Mix
📍 Fostered in Toronto
🏡 Female-only, adult-only home
🐶 No dogs, cats or children

Kika is a goofy, playful and incredibly loyal girl with a BIG personality and an even bigger heart! She loves her toys, cozy blankets, belly rubs and spending time with the people she trusts. ❤️ Kika has come SO far!

With patience, consistency and love from her foster home, Kika has made incredible progress! She's built a positive relationship with a dog walker and now has a trusted veterinarian and dog sitter. These may seem like small milestones, but for Kika, they are HUGE accomplishments!

💕 Kika's perfect match?

A confident, patient female adopter who can offer a quiet, structured home without other pets or children. Someone who understands her boundaries, will give her time to build trust and love her for exactly who she is.

✨ Kika is a special girl looking for her EXTRA special forever home! ✨

🐾 Happy Tails Alumni Update: Lina Bean (formerly Capulina)! 🐾❤️

From a very sick little dog in Mexico to a happy, confident girl living her best life in Canada!

Lina's journey began in Mexico, where she survived distemper after arriving seriously ill at a spay and neuter clinic. With the help of rescuers, she made her way to Canada and found her forever family in November 2020!

Nearly six years later, Lina is thriving! ❤️

💬 "When she first arrived, Lina was timid, quiet, and especially wary of strangers. Fast-forward six years, and she's a confident, affectionate, hilarious little character who absolutely loves having visitors over, especially kids.

Lina doesn't really walk anywhere. She trots or runs, even when she's just moving from one room or couch to another. She's a champion snuggler who will repeatedly paw at you if you dare stop petting her, and she's never met a blanket she couldn't rearrange into a perfect little nest.

These days, Lina enjoys walks with her 13-year-old brother Meegz, rolling in the grass, soaking up sunbeams and keeping watch over the neighbourhood from her favourite window. She's even made incredible progress with her reactivity on walks!

"From a very sick little dog in Mexico to the spirited, snuggly, wonderfully ridiculous girl she is today, Lina has come a long way.

We're so grateful to everyone who helped give her that chance."

— Bekki ❤️

Happy Tails, Lina Bean! Stories like yours remind us why rescue matters. We're so grateful to your forever family for giving you a lifetime of love, comfort and endless snuggles! 🐾

The puppies have stolen the spotlight… but some of our long term residents are still waiting for their turn!

We’ve received an overwhelming number of applications for our puppies, but sadly, Kiko, Lua, Kika, Dexter, Kyle and Lottie haven’t received any adoption inquiries.

These six incredible dogs have been waiting patiently for their happily ever after, and they deserve to know what it feels like to finally be home. ❤️

⏳ Just look at how long they’ve been waiting:

🐶 Kiko — 919 days
🐶 Lua — 768 days
🐶 Kika — 768 days
🐶 Dexter — 744 days
🐶 Kyle — 549 days
🐶 Lottie — 117 days

That’s far too long to wait for a family to call their own.

Puppies are adorable, but older dogs have so much love to give, too. These deserving pups are hoping someone will look past the wait and see the wonderful companions they can be.

✨ Could you be the one they’ve been waiting for?

Please take a moment to read their bios at the link below, share this post, and help us find Kiko, Lua, Kika, Dexter, Kyle and Lottie the forever homes they deserve. Every share could make a difference! 🐾💕

UPDATE: Applications are closed as we work through the applications we have received!

🎉It’s official! Our nine puppies are up for adoption! 🎉

From tiny two-week-old puppies to playful, curious little personalities, our nine newest arrivals have grown so much! Now, they're officially ready to begin the search for their FOREVER HOMES! 🏡❤️

Born on September 5th, these six boys and three girls came into our care after their family found themselves with an unexpected litter and reached out to Fetch + Releash for help. Since then, they've been busy growing, eating, playing, exploring and learning all about the world around them! 🐾

Each puppy is looking for a loving family to call their own! ❤️

🐾 Thinking about adopting a puppy?

Puppies may be tiny and adorable, but they're also a BIG commitment! We're looking for patient, dedicated families who have the time, flexibility and energy to guide these little ones through puppyhood. From house training and socialization to learning basic manners (and surviving a little puppy mischief!), these pups will need plenty of love, structure and patience as they grow.

💕 Could one of our nine puppies be your perfect match?

Head to our website to read their bios, learn more about our adoption requirements and submit your application!

📌 Please note: While applications are officially open, puppies will not be ready to go to their forever homes until they are at least 8 weeks old.

Smart, silly, s***ky and STILL searching for her forever family!

Lottie / Female / 5 months / 25 lbs / Husky Mix / Good with Dogs / Good with kids / Untested with Cats / From Manitoba / Fostered in Toronto

This little ball of fur came to us from Manitoba with her sister, Wren. Lottie’s fosters describe her as curious, playful, friendly and full of s***k! If you are looking for a young pup who is ready to learn all about the world and become the best companion, Lottie is your gal.

In true puppy fashion Lottie loves to explore and stay busy. You will find her playing with and chewing on toys, running around and exploring outside, or staring at her humans with the best puppy dog eyes and big ears. She is very affectionate, but not big on cuddles. Lottie seems to be comfortable and confident with independent play for her age. She loves puzzles and enrichment to stimulate her clever brain. Like many young puppies, Lottie is still learning that being alone is okay and will need patience as she builds confidence.

After only a short time Lottie has learned so much. She is a pro at sit and down, settles in her crate and has largely figured out her potty training with only the occasional accident. As expected for her age, she is working on her manners and learning what life is like within a home. Lottie will require time and patience as she continues developing her skills, especially while she teethes and learns what is and is not allowed.
