A Place To Bark

A Place To Bark logoFounded: 2001
Mission: to provide assistance and care to animals in need. Working together with other animal welfare agencies to help end the needless killing of adoptable animals. Proactively working to save lives - through spaying and neutering - eliminates needless deaths.

Highlights: A PLACE TO BARK is a no kill foster and adoption rescue dedicated to the welfare of animals and was founded by Bernie Berlin. Established in 2001, they mainly work with Animal Control Agencies, rescuing animals from high kill shelters and fostering them until they are healthy. This provides an ideal situation for the animals. They are then placed for adoption through Humane Societies in various parts of the country. A Place To Bark cover all costs for the medical care of the animals with no cost to the Humane Societies. They also handle some private adoptions after a strict screening process.

By building bridges and networking together, A Place To Bark hopes to see a future of ending the unnecessary killing of animals. They receive no government assistance. The rescue is funded through private donations and the proceeds of Bernie Berlin's art sales.

Kindred Canines

Kindred Canines logoMission: Kindred Canines strives for lifelong connections and forever placements for the many dogs that they rescue.

Highlights: Kindred Canines, "where dogs and humans find kindred spirits", is a growing all-breed dog rescue located in Modesto CA.

Kindred Canines primarily pulls shelter dogs who are in danger of being euthanized; usually these dogs are good dogs and the shelters who are euthanizing them are doing so simply because they are overcrowded and have no other options. All of their dogs are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations & rabies, and have been microchipped.

They have a three tier adoption process: (1) application, (2) meet and greet, and (3) home visit. Once a family or person has been approved to adopt a contract is signed and the dog can go home!
