WHO WE ARE

Blue Moon Rescue (formerly Blue Moon Catahoula and Big Dog Rescue) is a non-profit, all-breed pet rescue based in the Ottawa-Cornwall-Brockville triangle in Eastern Ontario, Canada.

The needs of our area as well as the varied interests of our core volunteers have prompted a timely re-definition of our identity, and a broadening of our mandate and mission. We are still essentially a dog rescue but as before will help with other species when possible. We will help any dog we have the space and resources to handle.

Thanks to our acceptance as members of our umbrella association Helping Homeless Pets, donations to our rescue can now be tax deductible for Canadian taxpayers. This wonderful change will enable us to help dogs with greater medical or behavioural challenges than we were previously able to handle.

We hope you will join us in this renewal and on our continuing journey.

MISSION

- to help with the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of homeless dogs; most are slated for euthanasia in overcrowded pounds and shelters in Ontario and beyond;
- to assist dog owners with advice and training so that they may keep the dogs they already have;
- to educate the public about responsible pet ownership, especially in regards to choosing the proper pet, spaying and neutering all pets, providing proper training of puppies and older dogs, and preventing dog bites with children;
- to constitute a fund to enable us to provide medical care for local homeless dogs;
- to form a group of volunteers interested in setting up a pet food bank in our area;
- to help transport dogs to rescue with other reputable rescue groups.
