Evelyn Leslie Community Support Moving to Canada in 1986 was the right decision I made. At the age of 23 arriving in Canada I worked 2 Full Time jobs to get on my feet. Throughout my journey I am truly blessed to have made lots of Fabulous Friends, and making many lifetime sisterhood bonds. In the Mid 90’s I was raising two boys, owning and running a Restaurant in Leslieville and a Café at Harbourfront. It had it’s challenges for sure, but I managed to survive those early years. Now my boys are living on own their own and for me now it’s Freedom over Fabulous 40!! I am extremely grateful for all the wonderful people in my life. I take great pride in making a difference the community and giving back. I have a lot of fun volunteering for festivals, fundraisers, special events and meeting lots of wonderful people.

A magnet for neighbourhood stray cats, abandoned baby skunks, the injured fox, the dog in need of a home and then I grew up and discovered rescue. My passion and advocacy for homeless animals, especially dogs has been my battle and cause for over twenty years. My journey began with a breed specific rescue and soon grew to saving everyone from the littlest of Chihuahuas to the Greatest of Danes. I am President and co-founder of The Dog Rescuers Inc., our work is volunteer but the reward is priceless! I am blessed to work with a wonderful team, all committed and dedicated to saving these precious lives. We save the dogs that people have cast aside, no longer want, we love them and work hard to find the perfect family to call their own. I have seen the horrors of what man can do, cried tears for the precious lives who we could not save, their abuse beyond repair. I have cried tears of joy and happiness when the laws have served justice for these brave souls or we have placed a sweet loving dog into the arms of a family over the moon with excitement. The battle for homeless pets is my passion and I am proud and honoured to make a difference in their lives. Continue reading at next page >
