community outreach
Established March 2012
No one should be faced with the decision of having to give up their beloved pet due to monetary issues. To combat this, our Community Outreach program was established to help with pet owner retention and shelter intervention, with the goal of #keepingpetswiththeirpeople.
The majority of our day-to-day work involves providing dog food, pet care supplies and resources, and non-judgemental guidance and support to underserved and under-resourced Detroit families so they can adequately care for their owned dogs. Dog Aide visits families in their own homes to break access barriers and to establish ongoing relationships with dogs and their owners. Each month Dog Aide delivers over 12,000 lbs of dog food directly to those we serve.
To join this program, potential clients must be a resident of Detroit and be willing to have all dogs spayed/neutered (at no cost to them). Additionally, we ask clients that they not add any other animals to their household while receiving services.
