Welcome to Cupcakes Pommy & Friends Rescue
Introduction to the Rescue
Cupcakes Pommy & Friends Rescue and Rehabilitation is a foster-based rescue organization located in Winnipeg Manitoba.
We are committed to helping rescue, rehabilitate and rehome dogs in need of care. Dogs come to us through rescue or retirement from dog farming, back yard breeding operations, owner surrenders, the international dog meat trade industry and other situations where dogs may be at risk.
Our rescue is founded on some basic principles: kindness, respect, and non-oppressive practice. Kindness to all living creatures great and small, respect for one another, those we care for and the world around us and ensuring we take a non-oppressive approach in our care of the dogs we are entrusted with in our rescue.
We do not have a shelter but support our dogs through a network of foster homes.
Cupcakes is a not for profit rescue group registered with the Province of Manitoba. Cupcakes operates solely through volunteers, financial donations, various fundraising efforts and through the sale of items created through Cupcakes Creations.
Dog Highlights
Gizmo is his name. What he does best? Be awesome!
He needs understanding, patience and prefers females.
Winston is the most loyal dog who will be a great dog for someone who wants a loyal companion and best friend.
Hoo is our longest resident in rescue - she just marked her one year anniversary! She needed the time to love and trust and learn about family life but she is now very ready for a loving person or family to bring her into their lives and make her their forever best friend.

A special note about rescue operations during the global pandemic
Covid 19 is affecting us all. Rescue is no exception. We have postponed our Pasta Night to fall 2020 and any other events have been cancelled.
We will not be processing any applications for adoption or fostering until further notice as all our adoptions and fosters require in person visits to ensure good matches with our dogs in care and create opportunities for successful adoptions.
There will be no public events, no direct contact meetings at this time.
We have set up our pick up locations for sales items as places that will be no-contact. We have a number of rescue volunteers who fall in the medically higher risk groups and thus we must take every precaution we can to protect them and you. Make no mistake though, we love seeing and visiting with you but right now is not the time for that. We do miss you and we are already talking about some fun get together time after we are certain the risk of transmission of Covid-19 has passed.
Please everyone stay safe and help prevent the spread of this virus through, self monitoring, vigiliant handwashing, self isolation and social distancing and follow the directions provided by our government leadership.
We are so thankful to all of you and want you to be safe and healthy and we very much look forward to seeing you and your dogs again in person.
We can get through this, like we do all things in rescue.... together.
