Pregnancy and Infant Loss (PAIL) Network provides bereavement support at no cost to families who have experienced the loss of a pregnancy at any stage, or the death of their baby, up to 12 months of age. We currently have volunteer opportunities for people who are approximately two years past their bereavement date and are looking for meaningful ways to offer their support to others. We are actively training peer supporters for private online bereavement support groups and one-to-one phone support.

Canine Foster Volunteers provide a safe, loving and temporary home for puppies (4-6 puppies at a time), senior dogs and adult dogs with specific needs. You must have the ability to separate the foster animals from any pets in your home by keeping them in a separate room, if necessary. We will provide resources and all the supplies you need.
Canine Foster Volunteers are responsible for helping the puppies, seniors and / or adult dogs in their care thrive until they are ready to be adopted (or to be returned to their owner in cases of Emergency Boarding). This will include feeding the animals at least twice a day, possibly more, potty training (for puppies), and exercising and socializing the animals. It may also include bottle feeding (if caring for orphaned or struggling puppies) and administering oral medications.
We are ideally looking for volunteers who are willing to assist with more than one of the following foster scenarios:
- 4-6 puppies under 4 weeks of age, requiring bottle feeding
- 4-6 puppies over 4 weeks of age
- Dogs with medical or special needs (eg. provide medication, ensure ‘bedrest’ post-surgery)
- Pregnant or nursing moms
- Dogs in need of socialization or with behavioural concerns
- Senior dogs who don't tend to fare well in a 'shelter' environment
- Dogs belonging to pet owners in need of emergency boarding in times of crisis
