The Cantu Foundation

Dog rescue in San Diego, CA

The Cantu Foundation is a volunteer based 501c3 non profit. We rescue and rehabilitate homeless animals, so they can be find their forever homes and be adopted. We strive to keep fighting for the animals that can’t speak up for themselves!

The Cantu Foundation is donation based, we are able to continue to do this work with the help of our supportive volunteers � Here is how you can help!

Foster/adopt: We are always looking for fosters to take care of our dogs before they get adopted! Fostering plays a major role in our mission. So if you are in the San Diego/OC área and want to foster, please reach out!
