Nestled on 600-acres in Grass Valley, CA, Animal Place provides refuge to hundreds of neglected farmed animals. In addition to permanent sanctuary, Animal Place's new Rescue and Adoption Center in Petaluma is focused on placing needy farmed animals into permanent homes. Sanctuary is important work, but Animal Place strives to create meaningful change for farmed animals through advocacy and education.

The dogs are available for adoption through Animal Place's and CAPE's dog adoption program. To donate to the care of the dogs, give here. Thanks to the hard work of CWOB, all of the dogs available here have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, heartworm tested, and treated for fleas and ticks. Submit an adoption form to get started for the dog you think best fits your family and we will go from there.
