Veterinary Care
Amici Cannis invests in the well-being of free-roaming, community dogs by spaying/neutering, vaccinating, microchipping, deworming, collaring, and providing more extensive medical care as needed.
Education
Abuse, neglect, and overpopulation are some of the biggest threats facing dogs and cats in Ecuador. We help communities understand and adhere to the laws that protect these sentient beings by offering humane education classes to people of all ages.
Sustainable Livelihoods
People become animal advocates only after their basic needs are met. To create communities where both people and animals thrive, Amici Cannis established a program connecting Indigenous Peoples to alternative livelihood projects, such as La Oveja, to improve their income and create a better future for themselves, their families, animals, and the environment.
Indigenous Empowerment
Amici Cannis developed an indigenous outreach program, which provides low cost and free veterinary care and humane education in these villages. The result? Improved quality of life for people and their pets, reduction in the spread of infectious diseases in animals and people, lowered animal overpopulation, and an increase in compassionate treatment towards animals.
Advocacy
Amici Cannis works to protect dogs and cats through advocacy. Prior to the formation of Amici Cannis, police poisoned free-roaming dogs to control the overpopulation problem. Amici Cannis put an end to this cruel practice by advocating for the well-being of animals and convincing the local government to adopt more humane practices.
