RESCUE

As an organization based entirely on a network of foster families, we can only care for a very limited number of animals.

For Veterinary clinics: Complete the form and choose “Animal abandoned in veterinary clinic” in the “Animal information” section.

IMPORTANT:

The Aristopaws specialize in medical care for animals in distress. We can only manage cases that require medical attention and specific care. If your animal is in good health or is being abandoned for reasons such as moving, lack of time, or allergies, we unfortunately cannot intervene.

We encourage you to explore other options–such as seeking assistance from friends, family, and others around you–before entrusting your animal to an organization. A change in environment can be disruptive and stressful for our four-legged friends, potentially leading to medical and behavioral setbacks and, in turn, complicating their adoption.

Euthanasia should only be considered if the animal has a poor prognosis despite veterinary care or a poor quality of life. For animals in relatively good health or under the care of a veterinarian, surrendering them to a recognized organization is the best option to offer a much-deserved second chance.

We understand how frustrating it can be to receive negative responses from shelters and organizations due to full capacity. That is why we created this page: to increase your chances of success for applications, and to save as many animals as possible. You can check our availability, as well as discover the cases we take on and those that we unfortunately cannot accept.

Rescue: Limited spots, but partnerships with other Canadian organizations

When our rescue spots are filled, our commitment to the life or death of animals in distress persists. Thanks to our collaboration with various Canadian organizations, we can direct you towards safe alternatives. Do not hesitate to contact us even if our rescue is at full capacity; we will provide you with vital references.
