Carmen was rescued from a small family farm that uses sheep for weed abatement. She tripped in a hole, broke her leg in multiple places, and was left without medical care for 2 weeks. Neighbors rescued her. We attempted to save her leg, but it was too damaged and had to be amputated. Nonetheless, Carmen runs with the best of them! (The shoulder massages she gets from our animal caregivers sure don’t hurt, either.)Carmen greets passersby at the fence and trots along as you make your way down the road. A $23 sponsorship shears Carmen’s sheep friends each year, a sad necessity given that their wool continuously grows. The sheep’s wool will be donated to wildlife rehab centers to help wild birds recover and build nests.

Check out the link below for the youtube video of Mr. G and Jellybean. From the website: The pair was saved from a hoarder – Mr. G the goat had safe haven with Animal Place while another sanctuary could take Jellybean. At the time, neither sanctuary was in the position to intake both animals and the tough decision was made to separate them in order to prevent their euthanasia. When Mr. G stopped eating, a volunteer drove down to southern California to pick up Jellybean and reunite the two…and it was captured on video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bv2OGph5Kec&feature=youtu.beNow the two will live out their days here at the sanctuary. Your $23 sponsorship allows us to transport other needy animals, like Mr. G and Jellybean, to their forever home at our sanctuary.
