International Partnership for Dogs (IPFD)

International Collaboration For Dog Health And Welfare
About us
The International Partnership for Dogs (IPFD), legally registered in Sweden, is a non-profit organization whose mission is to facilitate collaboration and sharing of resources to enhance the health, well-being, and welfare of pedigreed dogs and all dogs worldwide. The issues of dog health, well-being, and welfare are extremely complex and extend across international borders to include organizations and individuals from numerous jurisdictions, sectors, and disciplines. A coordinating mechanism is essential to bringing these stakeholders together, harnessing their strengths, and facilitating collaboration among them. The IPFD and our internet platform DogWellNet.com came into being following a long history of efforts to address dog health and well-being by many stakeholders. The organization was founded with an intent to provide information and support to the global dog community – not to limit access to the members/populations of our Partners. We are truly a "people driven" service organization. We allocate the bulk of our financial resources to maintain a small but dedicated team to manage our modest resources and facilitate the activities of our dedicated volunteers and other stakeholders – with the aim of achieving our collective goals.
