about us

The Australian Pet Care Foundation was founded by Christopher Allard, after more than twenty years researching ways to improve companion animal health and the quality of pets’ lives.

Our vision is that within 10 years the majority of Australian shelters and pounds will have achieved zero euthanasia of adoptable and treatable dogs, and for cats, within 20 years. These benchmarks will be achieved through a combination of research demonstrating better ways of reducing intake and increasing live release, and through education and advocacy on behalf of those who are voiceless – homeless and unwanted dogs and cats.

Pets enrich our lives, improve our mental, physical and mental health, and don’t judge us as some people do. They need you to advocate for them.
