Ferdinand’s Familia and Rescue, LLC is an all species non-profit, home-based organization dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and permanent placement of injured, abandoned and homeless animals. We provide a safe and secure home for animals until a healthy family environment can be located. We strive to create awareness on animal welfare issues through educational seminars, community events, media-based public relations and K-12 school field trips.

Ferdinand's Familia serves the communities of Southern California, including San Diego County, Imperial County, Orange County and Los Angeles County. We are adoption partners with the San Diego Department of Animal Control, Chula Vista Animal Control and the North County Humane Society located in Oceanside, California. We specialize in older and behavioral issue animals. When funding is available we also attempt to rescue animals with medical issues.

Ferdinand's Familia was founded in 2008 with the rescue of several horses in the Tijuana River Valley area.  We operate a Rescue Ranch that is home to our large animal program and a Foster Home Network which maintains a selection of dogs and cats available for adoption.

We are a California not-for-profit corporation and are working diligently with the IRS to achieve a final approval of our 501(c)3 status as soon as possible.

As an organization, we are funded by donations, adoption fees and animal sponsorships. We currently home 19 horses at our Rescue Ranch along with several llamas, goats, pigs, sheep and rabbits. We rely on volunteers and sponsors to care for the animals at the ranch and are always looking for great-hearted people to help.  We focus on developing positive and trusting relationships with the animals as a way of helping them heal.

In addition, our Foster Home Network has saved the lives of over 100 dogs and cats coordinating with San Diego shelters to exit animals that have run out of time in the County system.
