Uniting rescues with their 'fur-ever' homes

Paws Across the Water (PAWs) is a foster-based, non-profit organization and a registered charity, located in the Greater Toronto Area. We are 100% volunteer-based and work hard to find the best homes for dogs that were strays or abandoned.

Our Mission

Our mission is to rescue dogs from unfortunate circumstances and find them the BEST forever homes. Our dream is that one day we won't have to.


Through rescue, spay-neuter programs, education, and advocacy, we are working to reduce strays, advocate for laws that protect animals, and educate on animal welfare issues.

Our experience in finding a rescue through PAWS was excellent from beginning to end. The PAWS ladies are organized and professional and will make sure there is a fit between rescue and the adopting family. Staffed by a group of amazing, dedicated and passionate individuals who love dogs and dog lovers.

Wonderful rescue that truly rescues some of the world's most vulnerable dogs, nurtures them in foster homes, and then finds them amazing forever families. I can't speak highly enough of this organization!
