Guardians, through their ongoing support, improve the lives of animals and the people who love them. The monthly gift of a Guardian Partner allows us to meet the needs of animals in our community and support the people who love them. If you are a compassionate animal lover who wants to make a difference for those in need, please consider making a monthly gift that turns brighter tomorrows into a reality today.

Space Pioneer’s friendly and outgoing nature masked the deep pain he was experiencing from four broken teeth and an old elbow injury. Dakin relied on Guardian supporters when Space Pioneer was in desperate need of care.

When you join other animal lovers and advocates as a Dakin Guardian, you’ll have access to:

  • Inside Dakin Magazine: Our print publication provides an in-depth look at the lives changed through innovative programs and services that you generously support.
  • Cumulative Tax Receipt: Summary of previous year’s giving, sent out in mid-January.
  • Guardian Window Sticker: A sticker to alert police and fire personnel to the pets in your home.
  • Exclusive code for 15% off Dakin’s online merchandise store

We rely on the support of Guardian Partners to weather animal emergencies and say “yes” to pets and people in crisis. Your support changes lives all year long.


Heartstring Circle

Compassion and care for pets and people have been woven throughout our history, tied together by a common thread — love without condition.

The gifts made by our Leadership, Legacy, and Guardian Partners are bound by the same heartstring, connecting a community of supporters who make it possible for us to evolve and meet the changing needs of pets and people, while breaking barriers to accessible pet care.

Through the generosity of our Heartstring Circle, the vision of a world where services that support the human-animal bond are accessible to all and companion animals are no longer vulnerable becomes a reality.
