About

Save Our Scruff is a charity based in Toronto, Canada working on animal welfare.

Save Our Scruff is a non-profit dog rescue charity based in Toronto and Southern Ontario. It rescues dogs and places them in carefully screened permanent homes through adoption, using foster homes, volunteers, veterinarians and trainers. Dogs are selected for their temperament and likelihood of thriving in a suitable home rather than by size, age or breed. The organisation also runs advocacy and education work and accepts dogs from partner rescues in several countries.
