At JABCECC, we envision a world that acknowledges responsible and compassionate treatment of all animals.

Our Mission

Education

The JABCECC is dedicated to education via interaction and collaboration. Opportunities include seminars at our center with guest speakers who are experts in domestication, genetics, animal behavior, animal physiology, and canine cognition. We also offer children's activities where children can learn about foxes and other canines while being able to interact with them.

Research

The JABCECC is dedicated to advancing the understanding of domestication and animal behavior. Through well-designed & controlled studies, we develop evidence-based solutions to many of the current canid problems.  We bridge the gap between academia and canid conservation efforts, by converting the results from our studies into real-world solutions.  Our team of researchers and experts in canid behavior functions as a think tank for canid problems, and we forage partnerships with other experts to strengthen the impact and reach of our work.  With our established relationships, we are positioned to study canid problems like no other facility.  

If you are interested in working together on a research protocol, please contact us.

Rescue

The JABCECC offers a safe forever home to canids from troubled backgrounds, including fur farms, the exotic pet trade, illegal pet ownership, wild canids who are non-releasable, and canids from research facilities. 

We cannot save more lives without your support.  Please help our mission by sponsoring a canid, making a donation, or volunteering.

Conservation

The JABCECC believes that through interaction comes understanding, through understanding comes appreciation, and through appreciation comes conservation. We offer our interactive educational experiences to help the public learn about the conservation needs of canids and help to inspire them to be life-long advocates for them.
