About Us

Empowering Lives, Saving Souls

At Canine Impact Foundation, we are a passionate team committed to breaking the heartbreaking cycles that affect both humans and animals. We provide essential support to individuals seeking refuge from abusive situations while also offering affordable behavioral training for pets impacted by domestic violence or those without a home. Recognizing the transformative power of human-animal bonds, we supply emotional support animals and service dogs to domestic violence survivors facing the challenges of PTSD and other trauma-related disorders. Moreover, we offer valuable resources and services for those endeavoring to break free from the cycle of abuse. Together, we work tirelessly to cultivate a safe and nurturing environment for both people and animals in crisis, fostering hope, healing, and resilience.

Dog Portrait

Our Story

For the past decade, i have dedicated my life to professional dog training while actively engaging with and supporting survivors of domestic violence in our community. Throughout this journey, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative power of providing a safe space for individuals to heal emotionally. Understanding the importance of feeling protected and supported, i have come to believe in the profound impact that dogs can have on one's journey toward healing and transformation.

Driven by a deep passion to make a difference, I founded Canine Impact Foundation with a clear mission in mind: to provide a pathway to emotional healing by leveraging the unique bond between humans and dogs.  In Oklahoma, where the rates of both euthanasia and domestic violence consistently rank among the highest in the nation, I saw an opportunity to address these interconnected issues and make a meaningful impact in our community.
