Our Story
Canine Wines was founded to help the animal rescue cause and we are dedicated to
assisting our rescue partners.
Canine Wines donated $5 from every bottle sold and 10% of our total profit to animal
rescue. In the future, as our business grows and succeeds, we are committed to increasing
the 10% amount to a larger percentage.
In addition to direct funds, we donation our wine and our time to fund raising events.
We believe that by providing our outstanding wine as well as our personal attention
to pouring the wine that we make the events more successful.
