Company boilerplate

CuddleBridge is building Vancouver's first shelter dog borrowing platform. Borrowers will be able to spend a half or full day with a safety-assessed shelter dog β€” taking them hiking, to a patio, or simply for a long walk. Every outing reduces kennel stress, generates behavioural data that improves adoption matching, and directs revenue to partner shelters. CuddleBridge is currently in outreach with shelters across Greater Vancouver. No formal partnerships have been confirmed yet. The company was founded in 2026 by Sino Turing.

β€œThe adoption system is broken because it asks people to make a lifetime commitment before they've spent real time with a dog. CuddleBridge removes that barrier entirely β€” and in doing so, gives thousands of shelter dogs the outings and data they need to find their person.”
