New wolfdogs!
We offered 2 wolfdogs from New York a permanent home at our sanctuary! Please welcome Dyna and Blizzard! The owner of Dyna, Blizzard and 5 other wolfdogs suddenly passed away leaving them in a place where it was not legal for them to live. All 7 were at the risk of euthanasia if they were unable to find a home outside of New York and quickly! Thanks to the efforts of a few wonderful people all were placed in new permanent homes.
PROJECTS FOR 2026
1. Large 2,500 square feet outdoor flight aviary for multiple Macaws to be housed.
2. Large 10,000 square feet Florida Fish and Wildlife approved fenced in area for our five fur farm foxes to live in together.
