As dog owners /fosterers, it’s not the most wonderful time of the year… it’s that time to clean up the yard after a long winter of doggy potty usage. But, making it much more exciting (because what isn’t more exciting than that…) is that it’s spring, the weather is warming, the ground is thawing and gardens will soon be growing!
Order your garden plants online and have them delivered right to your door! @Plantables will give us a portion of every order placed using our code “HBRPlants”
Sweet momma River with her 2 pups – Rebel and Rubie. River came into HBR’s care just a short time ago and, surprise, she was pregnant! Via emergency c-section, River had four tiny puppies. Unfortunately we lost 2 smaller pups shortly after birth. We understand that these things happen despite everyone’s best efforts. Please send healing/positive vibes to River and foster mom, Ashley, who has remained a trooper throughout all of this. 
River is a wonderful mom, and like many mothers, is often forgetting to take care of her own needs. Thankful for Ashley, our vetting partners and supporters for ensuring River is well looked after. 
If you’re able to donate to their care, please do so at www.canadahelps.org.
If you’d like to attend a baby shower for River and her new little family, please check out Facebook for details and join us on April 24 at 2PM! We’d love to see you there 🙂
We’re BACK!!
You can have your pup’s paw painted on a flower canvas or perhaps try out a caricature.Canines of all kinds are invited to try agility activities or dock diving in K9 Central’s large outdoor pool; or, maybe s/he wants a good workout on a treadmill and some spa-like pampering! And, s/he won’t want you to forget to visit our vendors, many of whom offer a variety of dog treats, wellness option or accessories.Small family members of the 2-legged variety should check out Kid’s Carnival Corner for games and prizes and all sorts of fun. And, for the more “experienced” family members, vendors will offer a variety of things for you, too! Our rescue raffle and 50/50 tickets will be available until 3:30 and have some pretty great stuff up for grabs. A snack bar is available, serving all of your carnival favourites with all proceeds going toward the veterinary costs of the fosters of Homeward Bound Rescue.
Some vendor spots are still available. Please reach out to sarah@homewardboundrescue.ca for more information.
