In its own words
The organization focuses on rehabilitating restoring to full health and ultimately rehoming surrendered or homeless dogs. All dogs in care are placed with foster homes to care for them until adoption with support from other volunteers. The organization partners with First Nations communities empowering responsible dog ownership and welfare by bridging the gap to provide education support and veterinary services.
