MMDRS was created in response. A unique, specialized rescue focused entirely on those who needed more time, more care, and more understanding. Our mission is to step in when others can’t, providing immediate or long-term medical support, emotional rehabilitation, and a safe place for dogs to heal.

Based in Nova Scotia, we are a foster-based rescue. These brave underdogs often face extra challenges, but with our dedicated team of experienced fosters, they get the individualized care, attention, and love they truly deserve.

Our small-scale, hands-on approach allows us to fully assess, rehabilitate, and support each dog on their journey to health and happiness. Because we focus on quality over quantity, each Misfit receives a tailored plan that helps them thrive and ultimately prepares them for a forever home that understands and embraces their unique needs.

When our dogs are ready for adoption, we don’t just look for a home, we look for the right home. Our thorough matchmaking process ensures each dog is placed with a family committed to providing the understanding, care, and compassion they need to live their best lives.

As a registered charity, we rely on the generosity and kindness of people like you to help us create a safe haven for those who need it most. Over the years, we’ve built a strong community of supporters whose dedication has been essential in allowing us to continue our work. Your compassion makes all the difference. Together, we can keep bringing hope, safety, and care to those who need it most.
