Our amazing Community Outreach programs help to make Lort Smith truly unique. Our flagship projects focus on the human-animal bond, helping young people at risk, cancer patients in hospital and the elderly in care, just to name a few.

While Lort Smith is perhaps most well-known for vet care and adoption services, we also offer a range of community-focused programs to help people in need, as well as their pets. We receive no ongoing government funding – this work relies on the support of donors.
