Why we‘re doing it

The project will unite dog owners. Unifying dog owners in the community will allow us to help with unforseen life events. If a dog owner in the community is going through a hard time and is unable to provide for their pets, East New York Dog Lovers will assist the owner with pet supplies. That way the owner can have some time to get back on their feet without having to surrender their pets. The plan is to assist the dog community and create spaces where dog owners are welcome in order to ensure the safety of our animals and their owners.  East New York Dog Lovers is a resources for the dog community.
