• "Thanks to Annie and Millie's place we will always be able to keep Lexi close to us! We will forever be grateful for all of your help!"

    - S&J, after receiving veterinary care, euthanasia and private cremation for their beloved Lexi, who's ashes S&J are now able to keep close.

  • Leslie Irvine, author of "My Dog Always Eats First" joins the Annie and Millie's Place Board of Directors.

    Leslie Irvine breaks new ground in the study of homelessness by investigating the frequently noticed, yet underexplored, role that animals play in the lives of homeless people. Irvine conducted interviews on street corners, in shelters, even at highway underpasses, to provide insights into the benefits and liabilities that animals have for the homeless. She also weighs the perspectives of social service workers, veterinarians, and local communities. Her work provides a new way of looking at both the meaning of animal companionship and the concept of home itself. We are honored to have her expertise on our Board!

LESLIE IRVINE, Board Member and author of My Dog Always Eats First, is helping the research on the tragic loss of pets during Boulder County’s Marshall Fire. This research is informing the creation of a pet rescue app. The PetHelp&Rescue app will connect trusted contacts who can rescue pets while owners are not at home. It will be released in iOS at the end of January and on android shortly after. Read more at the following links:
