C.A.R.L. Dogs

Give a Dog a Bone Week, Helps Dogs of the Homeless, August 7-13, 2022
Every year Give a Dog a Bone Week helps support the dogs of people experiencing homelessness and helps to shine a light on the support these animal provide people who are in times of need.

Author Christian Morgenstern once wrote, “Home is not where you live but where they understand you.” For many without the security of a permanent place to call their own, a home is found in the understanding heart of a loyal canine companion.

A person living on the streets often encounters the judgmental gaze of passersby, but in the eyes of their dog they see only devotion; and while they may hear demeaning remarks that bruise their spirit, they know that their dog will be there to listen to their troubles.

Canine Adoption and Rescue League (C.A.R.L.) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit all-breed, no-kill dog rescue and adoption organization.

Since 1996, C.A.R.L. has rescued and placed thousands of unwanted, sick, abandoned, and homeless dogs. Dogs in our adoption program are placed in pre-screened, loving, and secure homes. We make a lifetime commitment to all of our dogs.

C.A.R.L. is located in Ventura County, California, and primarily serves Ventura County dogs. Because of our lifetime commitment to our dogs, we prefer to place dogs locally so we are available to them if needed. We rely on donations and do not receive government, state, or city funding. We operate almost entirely by volunteers.
