"Our mission is to provide a safe haven for those who find themselves homeless, abandoned or are facing euthanasia while we find them a much deserved second chance... Tango’s Lead has been and will continue to be the heart and home to many dogs. We work primarily with shelters who find themselves overwhelmed. While these pups are our focus, we also work together with the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) and other remote Northern Communities. With the help of our incredible foster homes, we get to know the personalities and needs of each of our dogs so that we can find them the perfect humans to show them what living is all about!"

As a foster-based dog rescue, our foster dogs live in private homes across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) where they receive the love and attention they need to ready them for adoption... By collaborating with local and international communities, our mission is to save dogs in danger of homelessness, abuse, neglect or euthanasia. Once in our care, we match each dog with the loving forever family they deserve... In addition to re-homing dogs, we are passionate about advocating for animal rights and educating the public on relevant issues...

Our harsh weather and no-roaming bylaws, along with all the usual risks to outdoor cats, make survival difficult.
We prioritize the most vulnerable, including pregnant cats, kittens, and those with injuries or medical problems requiring urgent vet care. Over the years we have grown to the point where we bring over 700 cats into our program every year. This can only happen with a large committed volunteer base with a wide range of skills and interests.

Whether that be, a behavioral dog, a feral cat, an old cow, or a pig, we will do everything we can to open our door to an animal in need. We have trainers who devote their time to the rehabilitation of the animals, and an amazing veterinary team to ensure the animals health and well-being."

We work closely with our community partners and Veterinary staff to achieve a healthy status for the cats and also arrange for spaying or neutering.
