Our Mission

Assisting rural, remote Indigenous communities in achieving healthy, balanced, safe communities for people and their dogs. 

Healthy Dogs = Healthy Communities

About Canine Action Project Inc.

Residents of rural and remote Indigenous communities in Saskatchewan experience higher rates of animal related fatalities, due to large free-roaming dog populations that often lack access to veterinary care or sustainable management practices. Canine Action Project (CAP) is a Canadian registered charity that assists such communities to achieve optimal health for people, animals and the environment through an integrated One Health approach.

One Health recognizes the links between human, animal and environmental health and associated community well being. In working with our target communities to improve the health of their dogs we are helping to achieve healthier, safer balanced communities for people and their dogs.

Great successes have been achieved to date, through a collaborative effort among community members, CAP volunteers, veterinary personnel, public health, university researchers and community based health representatives. Our programs are designed to improve animal and human health, increase animal and human health literacy and benefit community well-being in indigenous communities.
