Dreampower Ranch is located southeast of Castle Rock, Colorado, is privately owned and leased gratis to the Dreampower Foundation (TM). Dreampower Ranch (R) provides the setting for the P.A.A.L.S. program. The animals at the ranch come in all sizes and each has a story to tell - each is individual, precious and unique. The mission of P.A.A.L.S. is to provide hope and help to the abused and unwanted on Dreampower Ranch whether they have paws, hooves, fingers or claws. Support comes solely from donations. Most of the animals will be at the ranch for life. Some, however, may have a chance to be adopted to special homes. Such adoptions generate a small income. At Dreampower Ranch (R) senior animals reside and can interact with human visitors with opportunities for companionship, creativity and communication.
