Our core focus is on creating inclusive communities for people and their dogs, but preventing the suffering of any individual is important. Because we are located on a large farm, we provide sanctuary for rescued and retired cows, horses, and occasionally other animals. Some farm animals are with us for a short time if moving them to a pet home is a possibility, but for the most part, once they arrive, they stay with us for their natural life.
We hope that interacting with friendly, funny, character-filled farm animals will increase awareness among visitors about the cruelty of factory farming. When we can see the animals as individuals, we will care more about their suffering.

Our Foundation relies on science-based information about animal behavior and public policy, including breed-specific legislation and housing insurance discrimination, derived from our subsidiary National Canine Research Council. AFF’s team offers regional and national initiatives that support dogs and the people who care for them in their communities.
