Great Spirit had a busy November! ππββ¬οΈπππ
10 animals got a new home for life at the Sanctuary - 4 dogs, 3 cats, 2 ducks, and 1 domesticated pig joined the Sanctuary in November
212 Sanctuary animal residents were fed daily by president and caretaker Tom and the Sanctuary volunteers - 44 dogs, 34 cats, 15 equines, 11 pigs, 20 goats, 12 ducks and geese, and 76 chickens!
Please inquire with us about sponsoring a pet on a monthly basis to help pay for food and vet care; for example, a cat sponsorship is $25 a month. Or another option is making a donation tomorrow on GivingTuesday
17 dogs in the Great Spirit foster program -
Ivy, Trina, Rolly, Hope, Gunther, Peaches, Jasper, Missy and her 9 pups
1 adoption - Gunther from the Snowflake animal control shelter was neutered and officially adopted by his foster family. Congratulations, Gunther!
30 dogs and cats spayed or neutered -
we had a record month with 26 dogs and cats altered at the Sanctuary and 4 more at Cali's East Clinic
32 dogs transferred to rescue partners -
we arranged transfers with other rescues and literally drove the dogs in many trips - 17 dogs from the Holbrook Shelter and 6 dogs from the Snowflake Shelter. We also transferred 9 large breed puppies from a Snowflake owner to Barking Lot Dog Rescue; these were the littermates of a puppy we transferred out of Snowflake shelter on Oct. 23.
Our rescue partners this month included Arizona Poodle Rescue, Barking Lot Dog Rescue, Ghost Town Dog Rescue, HALO Animal Rescue, and Saving Paws Rescue.
Our volunteer rescue transporters this month included Todd Brown, Jeff Clark, Linda DePaolo, Tedi Falco, Rick Hedden, Cecily Presseur, Dan Reed, Sherry Reed, Darlene Saunders, and Teresa Shaw
Miscellaneous: 3 dogs and 1 cat - owners located or adopters found - we helped to find the owners of 2 dogs at the Snowflake shelter, and we found adopters for 1 spayed kitten (private owner) and 1 spayed puppy at the Holbrook shelter
