WE ARE SAVING THE LIVES OF DOGS AND CATS IN UTAH
Every day, dogs and cats are killed in shelters around the country just because they don’t have safe places to call home. But, together, we’re changing that and saving lives in Utah and nationwide.

How we’re helping to save pets in Utah

Answers to all your pet-related questions
Have you found some kittens outdoors? Do you need advice about training your dog? Have questions about spay/neuter or other aspects of pet care? We can help!

Help homeless pets in Utah
Whether you volunteer at a shelter, foster a pet or advocate for pet-inclusive housing, you’ll be making a huge difference in the lives of the animals.
Become an NKUT Coalition member
No one rescue group or shelter can create a no-kill city, and that’s why we work with more than 140 NKUT Coalition members to save lives across Utah.
The NKUT Coalition, led by Best Friends, is at the heart of lifesaving in Utah. Coalition members can receive grants, connect and collaborate with other organizations to help further their work, participate in adoption and fundraising events, take part in mentorship and training opportunities, and more.
Events: make a difference for pets
Have fun and connect with fellow animal lovers through a variety of local and national events, big and small.
