If anyone can... East C.A.N.! We are a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit all volunteer organization working together in and around East Nashville, Tennessee since 2008, encouraging accountability on issues of animal welfare and responsible pet ownership.

We do not have a shelter and instead facilitate neighbors helping neighbors as we all find, foster and nurture stray and abandoned dogs.

We connect fosters and finders with:

• Basic supplies (food, crate, bowls, leashes, collars, dog beds, etc.)
  

• Essential vetting and medications (including spay/neuter)
  

• Training and socialization resources
  

• Proven marketing avenues to reach qualified, potential forever homes
  

• Responsible oversight of the adoption process (applications, home visits and follow-ups)

East CAN is proud of its reputation, providing resources and care for over 9000 stray and abandoned animals and their caretakers during our 18 years of operation. 

We fully depend on community support from businesses, donors and hands-on volunteers. Email info@eastcan.org to learn more!
