Our Story
Caring for Canines began in 1992 when a compassionate 14-year-old girl visited Maricopa County Animal Care and Control. Overwhelmed by the sight of countless sad and homeless dogs and cats, she rescued one and vowed to make a difference. This small act of kindness sparked a movement that has grown over the past 20 years into a dedicated community focused on animal welfare. Today, Caring for Canines continues to save thousands of lives, advocating against pet overpopulation and providing a safe haven for those in need.
