Merlin damaged his horns during his “escape” from AVC. While he didn’t want to be walked down the hall that leads to the door out of the hospital, once he spotted the trailer, he was going for it! When he got to the trailer, he attempted to jump up into it but only got halfway. […]

The brains of the goat crew, Milhouse, has a new sponsor! Thank you so much to The Grinning Goat Vegan Boutique for joining Milhouse’s monthly care crew! You’re in good company as a member of Milhouse’s care, along with Nicole W. Yesterday morning, we were talking about how smart Milhouse is! He knows how to […]

While Annie is extra tired from her ordeal yesterday (and the medications she’s on now), she’s doing better! The combination of medications, as well as a special supper and breakfast, has things moving again, and she’s resting more comfortably. As you can see from the pictures, Mel was interested in Annie’s breakfast, and one of […]

Annie has been understandably resting a lot the past couple of days. She was up and hanging out with Sid this morning; however, she made a couple of vocalizations that alerted Robyn and me to the fact that something was definitely off. Annie’s pain levels were high (curling her lips and clenching her jaw), her […]

Merlin and Beatrice are back home! What a relief to have everyone back at the sanctuary and on the mend.

Merlin and Bea are now back at the sanctuary, Annie is healing, and little Stevie (one of the new turkeys) now has a monthly sponsor. Thank you to Janine, who sponsored Stevie and dedicated their sponsorship to Roo, the sweet turkey who passed recently. Stevie, Joey, and Mickey all stuck close to Roo before their […]

Stevie is looking at themselves on my phone’s screen. Two weeks ago, Stevie and their friends found a forever home at LP. If you missed their back story, you’ll find it here.

I’ll start with the good news about Bea. She has been doing well at the animal hospital, and after a close evaluation, it has been determined that no further treatment is needed.  Merlin typically doesn’t play with Bea the way Kate would, so I’m sure all the downtime has been beneficial for Bea’s shoulder.  Merlin […]

There are a couple of places in this recording where the sound gets wonky due to our internet connection at the time. We’ll work on a better recording in the future, but for the few brief moments of wonky sound, most of this recording should be tolerable to watch 😉

Tomorrow, Merlin and Beatrice will go to AVC before the weather worsens in the afternoon. Getting Merlin to AVC is the top priority for tomorrow – he’s severely limping, and as the very sensitive guy he is, he’s been shaking, not from the cold. He calms down quite a bit when I comfort him, but […]

Below you’ll find the volunteer positions we’re looking to fill in 2026. Most of these roles are remote, so if you’ve been wanting to help from home, your right-fit volunteer role might be among these positions. Some of the roles require only a small time commitment, so don’t hesitate to click on any of the […]

Our newest sheep residents (Moose, Claire, Charlie, Rory) are pretty excited about the buffet of hay + tree branches! Good News for Johnny! Thank you to Tanya for […]

Merlin has had arthritis since his rescue. Neglect has taken a serious toll on his body. On Sunday afternoon, we arrived back at the barn after lunch to find that Merlin had a pronounced limp and was avoiding putting much weight on his front right foot. His toe looked to be at a different angle, […]

Many of you saw my brief post about Roo, one of the turkeys who arrived on Thursday and passed away within 24 hours. 💔 Here’s her story from the brief time she was with us. When Tim was at the shed the turkeys were in (see my previous post), we noticed that Roo needed medical […]
