Project Unleashed
Project Unleashed is a partner of Best Friends, working together to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country
The Best Friends Network is made up of thousands of public and private shelters, rescue groups, spay/neuter organizations, and other animal welfare groups — all working to save the lives of dogs and cats in communities like yours across the country.
The NKLA Coalition, led by Best Friends, is at the heart of lifesaving in Los Angeles. 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.
From Project Unleashed
Project Unleashed is a unique opportunity for students to learn responsibility, leadership and compassion through their own personal self-discovery by working with rescued dogs. Within the span of a 28-day program, the students learn everything from dog basic handling techniques to developing effective communication. The dogs are by their trainers' side, ready for instruction and looking for feedback. New website coming soon.
