Our Work in the United States

We’re fighting to give farmed animals room to move and to promote a plant-forward food system. We’re advocating for a world where no animals are used in research and testing by replacing that practice with sophisticated non-animal alternatives. We’re finding creative ways to ensure companion animals and their families have the resources they need. We’re caring for animals in crisis, promoting more humane wildlife management approaches and teaching people how to peacefully coexist with nature.

We work with local groups to respond to disasters, and we help law enforcement investigate and respond to puppy mills, dogfighting, neglect and more. We run sanctuaries in Oregon and Texas for animals rescued from the wildlife trade and cruelty situations. We also operate a care and rehabilitation center for dogs and cats rescued from disasters and cruelty situations. 

Through grants, training, partnerships and events, we help shelters, rescue organizations, veterinarians, law enforcement officers, government agencies at all levels, community leaders and the public create meaningful change for animals. We’ve connected more than a million pets and their families with the resources they need. We’ve also trained thousands of professionals to lead effective investigations, resolve human-animal conflicts with compassion, assist pets in low-income households and more.
