Pierre was dumped on the street in LA. Now he is living his best ranch life with his new family at the Sanctuary. We love you, Pierre!

These two young goats were confiscated together by Animal Services during a raid on a property where 3000 roosters were being bred for cockfighting. Huck and Finn were found in a state of terrible neglect, but they have now grown strong and trusting since joining us at the Sanctuary. They love to jump and play on their tree stumps. They are inseparable.

Tuesday worked as a brush goat, clearing ranches of brush, and keeping us all safe. When she came to us she was foundering and arthritic, and she was in so much pain that she walked on her knees instead of her hooves. With the help of a diligent farrier and good meds, we were able to get Tuesday walking again. At 10 years old she has retired from ranch work, and now spends her days lounging in the pasture with her goat friends.

This bonded pair came from a loving family who had them as pets. Unfortunately the family’s circumstances changed and they could no longer keep them, and they needed to find them a forever home where they would be safe and out of harm’s way. It’s not easy to rehome a farm animal. We brought them to the Sanctuary where they can spend the rest of their lives together!

Our only sheep, Fuzzy, has made himself right at home among the little herd of misfit goats. They embraced him as part of the herd. A great lesson in acceptance!
