On July 1, over 150 people gathered at Farm Sanctuary’s New York location to celebrate the rights of all beings to live freely and peacefully.

This time of year brings longer days, shorter nights, and exceedingly warmer temperatures. For the rescued farm animals who call our sanctuaries home, summer means napping in chamomile fields, dustbathing in the shade, and running at dusk through the pasture.

At Farm Sanctuary, we aim to provide environments and care for the hundreds of farm animals residents who call our sanctuaries home, so that they can truly thrive. While providing this care is not easy, it is well worth it. We want to share our experience during Responsible Animal Guardianship month so that you, too, can be informed and ready if and when you choose to become a responsible animal guardian.

A sweet sheep named Dottie gave birth to twin boys on January 21, 2021, in Dutchess County, NY. What should have been a joyous event for Dottie was likely one of great stress. Dottie’s baby boys – Freckles and Patches – entered the world to severe neglect. Yet the persistence and determination of compassionate neighbors and our Farm Animal Adoption Network have given them a second chance.

Sanctuary heals and transforms lives — from the rescued animals in our care to the people who love them. Treat them all to a gift that gives back by symbolically adopting a farm animal today.

Earlier this year, Dan, a former beef farmer, asked Farm Sanctuary to help rehome his herd. Impressed by the cows' intelligence, Dan began to reconsider his relationship with them. Ultimately, he decided he could not, in good faith, send thinking, feeling beings to their deaths.
