In 2013, FLED - Find Lost & Escaped Dogs Vancouver Island was the first and only organization on Vancouver Island to travel the island helping lost dogs. FLED – Find Lost & Escaped Dogs Vancouver Island is a registered charity established January 2013 in response to the number of pets that can go missing in the Vancouver Island area every week.

To contribute to reuniting lost dogs with their families using Social Networks, internet, and other technology available and to contribute in any way possible to rescue and animal welfare on Vancouver Island while complementing and working with other services available. We post lost and found dogs from anywhere on Vancouver Island and do our best to assist owners with finding their lost animals. Our organization is supported by donations and covers things such as gas, equipment, equipment maintenance, cremation for animals where owners cannot afford to have their pets done. We also will assist owners who are low income and who cannot afford the fines if their dog is picked up by the CRD. We cover those costs by what we get in donations as well as collecting bottles. We periodically will get a donation from owners of missing animals once that animal is found, but not always and we are ok with that. We do it for our love and our passion for animals If we are able, we will assist in finding any lost animals on Vancouver Island We have a 5th Wheel Trailer equipped with what we need and will travel to an area if that means we need to stay overnight or longer.
