Our Story
What is Canine Estates?
Canine Estates, Inc., located in Palm Harbor, Florida, is a tax exempt, non-profit 501(c)(3) adoption and sanctuary facility. We are dedicated to saving the lives of abandoned, abused and injured dogs primarily from high kill shelters. We do not discriminate against fur kids who are special, disabled, or seniors. We always try to ensure that each of our fur kids is able to continue a long and comfortable life.
Our mission is to find loving homes for each of our dogs. We rehabilitate them and have them vaccinated, spayed and/or neutered. When emotionally and physically healed, we search for the right human companionship for each, ensuring a loving, permanent home. If loving homes are not found, our animals will live their lives at our sanctuary and will never be unnecessarily euthanized.
How We Work
A Unwaivering Commitment to The Dogs That Need Us the Most
Our goal is to find every dog a loving, permanent home. However, due to medical or other issues, some of our dogs have found their “forever home” at our sanctuary. We provide social interaction and medical care to allow these precious souls to live a happy and comfortable life.
Please help us care for these incredible dogs by providing a donation toward their care.
Hospice – Tic and Tac
Tic and Tac weren’t able to adjust to family life. They are now permanent residents of Canine Estates, where we provide them with endless love and pampering.
Hospice – Tillie
Tillie is an adorable terrier mix. She will bark when she needs to go outside. Our dedicated staff and volunteers provide her with eye drops daily.
Hospice – Rosie
This sweet little terrier weighs 13 pounds. She greets us every day with wags and unconditional love. We are honored to provide her a safe and comfortable life.
