Canine Action Project (CAP) is a Canadian Registered Charity working closely with First Nations across Treaty 6 Territory in Saskatchewan to provide community animal health programs focused on dogs and cats. We are proudly an Indigenous-founded and Indigenous-led organization. Canine Action Project programs focus on access to veterinary care, knowledge sharing, and individualized support for each of our partner First Nations. In working towards improving the health of animals, we are helping to achieve healthier, safer communities.Canine Action Project was founded in 2011 by Kelly Phipps and Monique Schultz and became a Canadian Registered Charity in 2013. After realizing that simply removing or ‘pulling’ dogs from First Nation communities wasn't going to solve dog overpopulation concerns, we began hosting large volume spay/neuter veterinary clinics in 2013. Again, it was quickly realized that only focusing on spay/neuter was another band-aid and short term solution to a larger, systemic issue. Through collaboration with our partner First Nations, veterinary professionals, animal welfare professionals, and community members, we have created an integrated, community-led and culturally sensitive approach to assist First Nations in achieving long-term and sustainable dog management practices.
