About The Team

Please JOIN OUR TEAM and start fundraising today!C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc.’s mission is to get each outdoor chained dog off the chain, one dog at a time.

We enhance the lives of 24/7 chained/outside dogs by providing life enhancing supplies & services including: insulated dog houses, straw, safe fenced yards/kennels, spay/neuter assistance, vaccines, heartworm prevention, treats, toys, love and most importantly… owner education and resources. Correcting the problem where it originates decreases the number of homeless and neglected animals.

Please JOIN OUR TEAM and start fundraising to #TakeThePlunge during Bark-A-Bout’s #PlungeForPaws Main Event, Sunday, December 15th!

#TooChickenToPlunge? No worries! JOIN OUR TEAM and fundraise to save animals in need this winter. Those that raise $100 or more still get a free tshirt and free admission to the #PlungeForPaws Main Event, Sunday, December 15, 2019.

Every dog is worth saving and this is our way of saving them! 

Every dog is worth saving and this is our way of saving them! Since 2011, C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc. volunteers have assisted: 2,897 dogs/puppies (some cats/kittens too); 880 igloos/barns given to outside dogs; 648 spay/neuter; 347 surrendered/rescued; 84 adoptions; 68 freedom kennels built.

Please JOIN OUR TEAM and start fundraising to #TakeThePlunge during the #PlungeForPaws Main Event! Or make a life-saving donation to an animal in need today!

Life-saving #PlungeForPaws donations will allow C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc. to purchase: bales of straw for outdoor dog house insulation. Donations will also provide outdoor chained dogs with warm shelter and food for the winter. We plan to purchase insulated outdoor igloo dog houses, warm heating pads, heated water bowls so water doesn’t freeze over, dry kibble food, comfortable collars and lightweight leashes. Most importantly, we will provide pet owners with educational materials on how to keep their dogs safe and healthy during Michigan’s brutal and deadly cold winter weather. We encourage all pet owners to bring their dogs indoors, especially during the coldest nights, so we provide indoor crates. 

Please make a life-saving donation to C.H.A.I.N.E.D. Inc.! Join in our fundraising efforts to #TakeThePlunge during Bark-A-Bout's #PlungeForPaws Main Event! Every donation directly gives a desperate out-door chained dog a life-saving miracle this winter!
