A Safe Place While Dogs Wait for a Home
The Vines Foundation’s dog shelter provides care, protection, and a second chance for dogs that have been abandoned, neglected, or found without a home. While our mobile clinic focuses on prevention, the shelter supports animals that need immediate care and a safe place to recover while awaiting adoption.
Each dog receives daily care, nutrition, veterinary attention, and ongoing support from our team as we work to find the right family for their next chapter.
Responsible Adoption
We believe adoption is a lifelong commitment. Through the adoption process, we work with families to promote responsible pet ownership and help ensure that each placement is a lasting one.
Our work also extends beyond the shelter itself. Through outreach and education, we encourage informed decisions before acquiring a companion animal and promote practices that support animal welfare throughout the Uco Valley.
A New Home for the Shelter
In 2025, construction began on a new shelter within The Vines property, designed to provide a safer and more suitable environment for the dogs in our care. After months of planning and development, the shelter officially relocated to its new home in March 2026.
The new facility allows us to continue improving the quality of care we provide while creating a better environment for both the animals and the team members who look after them every day.
Since the program began, more than 150 dogs have found permanent homes through adoption. Each adoption helps reduce the number of animals living on the streets while giving a dog the opportunity to become part of a loving family.
