Eastwood Ranch Foundation

When it comes to adopting or fostering a pet, it’s often hard to know who really saves whom.

This June, the Eastwood Ranch Foundation (ERF), created in 2012, opened its new animal rescue facility and adoption center in Agoura Hills. ERF founder, actress, and passionate animal rights advocate Alison Eastwood hopes to rescue even more dogs, cats, and other domesticated pets from high-kill shelters in the Calabasas area while raising awareness of their plight.

Alison explains why she chose Agoura Hills as her foundation’s newest facility. “I live in Calabasas and used to ride my horse all over Agoura Hills,” she says, “so I’m very fond of the area. For years, I kept driving by this dirt lot to get to the freeway, and one day, I had the dream to build our rescue facility from scratch on that lot. Now, almost seven years later, that dream has come true.”

It’s clearly the dream of every animal facing a death sentence in a kill shelter to find their new furever home. Alison is dedicated to helping them succeed. Everyone volunteering at the new location is well trained, possessing years of experience in the animal rescue world. They look forward to working with kids and parents to provide invaluable information on how to best care for animals.

Those hoping to make a difference in a loving creature’s life can adopt or temporarily foster. They also need people to transport animals to/from veterinarian appointments and elsewhere. Donations to the nonprofit are always welcome as well. Their next fundraiser is scheduled for the official grand opening of their Agoura Hills location on Saturday, September 7.

The Eastwood Ranch Foundation continues to campaign and petition for abused, neglected, and unwanted animals throughout the United States and beyond. They also support other vetted local rescues, providing funding and temporary care for some of their animals. Those interested in adopting or fostering can view some of ERF’s adorable animals, fill out applications, and learn more about this dynamic organization at eastwoodranch.org.
