Canadian Wings of Rescue is a 100% volunteer run federally registered charity organization dedicated to rescuing animals within Canada. Our purpose is to work with Canadian rescue groups, shelters, and/or wildlife rehabilitation centres when they are faced with a transportation need. We arrange short flights via our amazing volunteer pilots wherever possible.
We provide free, or low cost options for, domestic flights to Canadian not-for-profit animal welfare organizations. Transports for abused, abandoned and injured animals to fosters, adopters, rehabilitation or transfers to other not-for-profit organizations.

πΎβοΈ Say hi to Marley, the resilient golden retriever with a heart of gold! ππ
Surrendered by his previous owner, Marley has traveled across provinces thanks to three incredible volunteer pilots who flew him from western Canada to Ontario.
Along the way, she was lovingly fostered by dedicated volunteers, giving her the care and comfort she needed. π

πΆ Rescue Update: POPLAR πΆ
Remember this little explorer? At 4.5 months, Poplar captured our hearts when Pilot Paul transported him from La Ronge, SK, to Spring Bank, Alberta, last summer, along with six other pups seeking their forever homes.
Fast forward to today - Poplar is now 11 months old and has grown into the BIGGEST boy! That curious, outgoing puppy energy hasn`t changed, but now it comes in an extra-large package full of love.
Thank you to all the volunteers and rescue organization @trailsandbears who made Poplar`s journey possible. Every coordinated flight, foster home, and shared post contributed to the happy endings of our rescues.
You can be part of someone else`s happily ever after, too. Your donation helps us continue connecting deserving pups like Poplar with their dream homes. Every flight gets wings with your support! π
