Canine Impact Foundation

Animal rescue in HARRAH, OK

At Canine Impact Foundation (CIF), we are more than just a rescue—we are a lifeline for dogs and people in need. Founded with a mission to create lasting change, we dedicate ourselves to rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming dogs while supporting survivors of abuse and trauma through the healing power of canine companionship.

✨ Our Mission:
We work tirelessly to give every dog a second chance and to provide hope, comfort, and safety for those who need it most. Whether it's saving a dog from a high-risk shelter or pairing a survivor with a trained support dog, our goal is to make an impact that lasts a lifetime.

💖 What We Do:

Rescue dogs from shelters, streets, and abusive situations.
Train dogs as emotional support, therapy, or companion animals for survivors of trauma.
Provide education and resources for responsible pet ownership and the benefits of training.
Advocate for victims of domestic violence and help them escape the cycle with canine support.
🌟 Why We’re Different:
We believe every life matters—human and canine. By partnering with our community, volunteers, and supporters, we’ve built programs that not only save lives but also foster healing and hope. Every dog we rescue has a purpose, and every survivor we help gets the strength to rebuild.

🐶 Join Us:
Whether you’re adopting, fostering, donating, or simply spreading the word, you’re part of the impact. Together, we’re creating a world where both dogs and people can thrive.

Additional adoption info

At the Canine Impact Foundation, we are committed to providing both survivors of abuse and trauma and rescue dogs with the opportunity to build lasting, positive relationships through our Service Dog Placement Program and Rescue Dog Placement Program. Whether you're looking for a service dog or simply a loving companion, our process ensures a perfect match and the support needed for a successful partnership.

Application Process:
Initial Inquiry: Survivors of abuse and trauma or families looking for a rescue dog are encouraged to reach out to us through our website, phone, or email. We'll begin by understanding your unique needs, whether it's for emotional support, companionship, or a service dog specifically trained to assist with daily tasks.

Application Submission: Applicants will complete an application form to provide details about their current living situation, lifestyle, and preferences (such as dog size, temperament, or breed). This allows us to better assess the best match for both survivors and potential families.

Consultation: After receiving the application, we'll schedule a phone consultation to dive deeper into your needs. For survivors, we'll discuss the type of emotional or physical support needed from a service dog, and for families, we’ll go over the kind of companion you’re looking for. This is also an opportunity to answer any questions you may have about the program.

Home Visit & Training Commitment: For survivors seeking a service dog, we’ll conduct a home visit to ensure the environment is a good fit for the dog. If you’re a family adopting a rescue dog, we’ll discuss your home environment to ensure it’s suitable. Additionally, we require survivors to commit to at least one training session per month with their service dog, and a minimum of five training sessions while the dog is still in training. This ensures a successful transition and a healthy relationship.

Dog Matching: Once all assessments are complete, we match the survivor or family with a dog that fits their needs. For survivors, this means pairing them with a trained emotional support or service dog that will help them build new hope and strength. For families, we match them with a rescue dog that fits their lifestyle and preferences. If no match is found immediately, we continue to assess the situation until we find the right dog.

Placement & Ongoing Support: After placement, both survivors and families will receive continuous support from our team. For service dog placements, we offer ongoing training and guidance to ensure a smooth transition. For families adopting rescue dogs, we provide advice and support to help integrate the dog into their home. Our goal is to ensure that the bond between you and your dog lasts a lifetime.

At CIF, we believe in the power of second chances—for both the dogs we rescue and the survivors we serve. Our goal is to create lasting, life-changing connections that empower both dogs and humans to heal and grow together.
