Tyson N friends Non-profit Dog Rescue, Foster, Adopt, Donate, Animal Advocates, Helping dogs escape BSL in Ontario

Welcome to Tyson N friends!

Some of you may be wondering who are we and how we come about. About 18 years ago an American Staffordshire Terrier was brought into Brians life. Little did he know, that was to be the very beginning of his journey of love, pit bull advocating and dog rescuing. Tyson was a gentle soul, full of character, full of love and changed the lives of everyone he encountered. Tyson, with his charm and charisma, started to change minds, helping people realize that the stigma that followed "pitbulls" was simply not true. After 14 amazing years, Tyson left behind a legacy, a drive to save lives and give a voice to the pups who are shunned simply because of how they look. Together we work to rescue and give dogs a second chance at finding a forever loving home. Tyson N Friends is a small non-profit organization ran by one of Tyson's owners Brian Ferreira. Brian is a plumber by day, dog rescuer by night. Brian along with his incredible volunteers, and other animal advocates work together on their spare time to save lives, bring back to health and re-home rescue dogs. With no discrimination of breed, age or health Brian and friends come together to give dogs a second chance. We work to rescue any breed that needs a forever home, but our main drive and focus is on our local bully breeds. There are lots of way you can help to support Tyson N Friends. If you're ready to adopt, contact us, fill out an application and we'll get back to you as soon as possible after reviewing your application. Please note that due to the BSL in Ontario, fosters only will be needed for our bullies until we find them a home out-of province, as they cannot be adopted in Ontario. And lastly, we are always welcoming monetary donations, beds and crates! We are working as quickly as possible to get our page set up, your patience is greatly appreciated! Thank you for taking time to read and join our page, thank you for all of your support, we look forward to working with you and saving lives one pup at a time!

Momma says thank you for all the generosity 🙏❤️

I feel she’s gonna blow today/tonight, got a gut feeling.

Last night I had a nightmare she was giving birth and needed my help but I couldn’t awake up 🥹
Ran to the kennel in the un**es at 5am to check, what a relief it was just a dream.
Hate she’s giving birth here 😞
I check on her every three hours
Have a camera but doesn’t show night activity well enough to see.

She’s too sweet, just wants hugs and to be held.
She falls asleep on my lap 😞

Thank you for the food, formula and kibble 🙏❤️
You all are super stars 🌟 💕

Thank you Julie Lotton for doing nail trim fundraiser https://www.facebook.com/share/g/19jcDwchht/?mibextid=wwXIfr
She worked her butt off and raised $715 bucks 👏👏. Thats a lot of nails 💅
She helps so many rescues and is a shelter foster fail her self 🥰
She stopped and cut momma Tundra and Peppers nails.
What a pro 🏆

Thank you Terri Ward for once again doing a local bottle drive, it’s a lot of work and time, respect ✊
This time she raised $400 bucks in empties, that’s impressive just wish I was invited to that party 🤣
Always helping rescues as well ❤️

And thank you Brian and Shawna Rockefeller for stopping by with a box of turkey necks and bringing their beautiful girl Azzy a fur warrior Almuni for a visit and playing with little Pepper 🌶️ ❤️
That box was pricey, those turkeys necks where size of a horse $@& # 🤣🤣🤣
Even momma was shocked, little pepper was so happy 😁

So many amazing beautiful people in the rescue community.
Blessed team Tyson was chosen this time and came at the perfect time.

Thank you friends ❤️🙏
And Brian, the Corona hit the spot man 🤙

Welcome Doir

Last week I was notified about an accident litter needing help.
She’s only 4.5, her second litter and definitely her last 👏👏
Originally my plan was to abort once she came in, but seeing the X-rays and how far along she is I just can’t pull babies out again 😞
She’s gonna blow soon 🥹
I was up most of the night checking on her and will be like this for at least another month. Poor girls confused.
Little scared but overall has settled in better than expected.
Vets count 9 😳
American standard Bully

Offered her many meals but seems to only wanna eat puppy wet food.
Running very low and could use some help.
Puppy wet and pads 🙏
Amazon list https://www.amazon.ca/hz/wishlist/ls/23L27D5ZNMT8C?ref_=wl_share

Obviously an in home foster would be better and best to keep her isolated from others for now.
If your in Durham region and have experience send me a dm

Thank you Jessika and Nick for driving momma and sorry for the puke and p**p 🫣
She had a long trip, was very hard on her.

$5 Friday

We need to raise some bucks to help cover Bensons Neuter please 🙏
Our vet bill sits at 5k
I know it’s nothing compared to other rescues but I don’t like the rescue be in debt cause it effects who we can help next and never know when we might have another emergency 🚨

Next week we have Momma tundra going for a spay, she’ll be costly as shes a bigger girl and needs everything done, her breeder didn’t spend a dollar on her health 🙄

Et to [email protected] PayPal

TNF army is strong and together we can do wonders with these dogs.
Appreciate you all ❤️

Benson needs a neuter and Obedience, he’s already gotten better with the jumping and mouthing. I feel it’s an anxiety thing where he jumps to mouth the arms. Shelter staff know what I’m talking about.

Happy Friday friends 💕

Huge thanx to Emma https://www.facebook.com/share/19bNpnKZ75/?mibextid=wwXIfr for donating two bags of back bones for the dogs, she felt bad nobody donated a few days to help feed a few dogs raw and treats.
Most of the dogs are on kibble but a few due to allergies are on raw and some always spoil them every night with turkey necks as I leave. My way of saying I love and will see you tmrw my babes.
It’s all good though
Adoptions all time low, lowest year for $donations but the highest year for surrenders and tags.
One day at time right?
Just look at their faces 😍😍
Probably never were feed so good 😞

Little Pepper is a shark geez…
She stole 4 Turkey necks when I wasn’t looking 🤣
So nice to finally have a puppy with solid rock p**ps and barely pees haha
That’s raw for ya, soak in all the goodness and stay hydrated.

Thanx Emma, appreciated you 💕
Got 7- 40lb bags of raw chicken for the dogs, should be good for a bit.
Emma gives TNF a good rate.
No pressure but et [email protected]

Imagine seeing these dogs happy everyday all day?? You can adopt them 🤣🤣
Lucky, Cipher, Rocky, Tundra, Fresh, Lilly Chase, Cheeka and Kane
Missing is Darcy, Benson and Roxy 💕

Miss Roxy ❤️

Sadly she’s gotten no love 😞
Please share her post, like it and comment how adorable she is please 🙏

She’s part of the Harry Potter crew
Almost 6 months old
Lab/pit/bully mix
Small girl, will be surprised if she gets to 65lbs

Roxy loves other dogs, kids and every human she meets. Hasn’t met the cats yet.
She’s crate trained, house trained but the lab in her is the chewer 🫣
She’s a quite dog, she loves her toys, stuffies and couch pillows 🤣
Walks decent, could use some work there. Don’t see allergies 🤧
She’s honestly the perfect little girl and I just love having her here.
She needs her own family to love and grow with.
She’s a great swimmer but hates the pool.
