Meet Cowabunga or ‘Mr. Bunga!’ Cowabunga found his forever home at Sunrise in May of 2022. He’s a handsome boy who reminds us of our late Baby Moo and Wesley.
Cowabunga could’ve had a very different life. He was originally meant to be a 4H cow. Cowabunga ended with a woman who loved him dearly but couldn’t give him everything he needed. She wanted a better life for him. Cowabunga now spends blissful days roaming the pasture and playing with Rowan, Jackson, and Buddy.

Meet Hawks who arrived at Sunrise with Asia, Freida, Mrs. Potts, and Kanjen in the spring of 2021. A well-meaning lady in Indiana rescued 12 sheep several years ago and did not ensure that no reproduction took place. Soon, she ended up with over 70 sheep. Hawks was one of the babies born before coming to Sunrise. He was neutered to prevent more babies being born without a place to go. He now happily resides at his forever home with his mother, two aunts, and cousin. Hawks is a large boy and watches over his sheepie family, but is a gentle sweetheart by nature.

Sunrise is truly a sanctuary for all who come here.

Happy Valentine’s Day to all 🥰

We will miss Oscar and hold him very close in our hearts. He lived a long and wonderful life surrounded by love and friends.

2024 was a wonderful year for Sunrise Sanctuary. We gained Courage, Lace, Rain, Socrates, Supermodel, Kelly Pig, and Little Wilbur. We had our first full year with the new sheep herd (Bobby, Becky, Richard, Dori, Lori) and Heather. Our first year with Red and Ruby (the Duroc relatives). We celebrated Lily's 3rd birthday. Rowan has been with us 7 years! Kanjen celebrated her 3rd birthday and Juno her 2nd birthday! Millie became our longest resident (around 16 years at Sunrise). The Durocs turned 3. Henry and Oakley have been with Sunrise since 2012 (12 years) and Oscar for 13 years! Regan turned 4. Feathers and Little Wing got to have wild babies with their wild spouses. Baxter and Midge turned 11 (born in 2013 to rescue momma Sierra). Sally turned 12 (arrived 2012). There were poignant moments. We had to say goodbye to Lakota (with us for 11 years), Miracle (with us for 9 years), Ms. Bea (with us since 2011), OJ the rooster, Barbosa (the senior turkey who was with us for at least 11 years), along with others. Thank you for all your support and love. We are excited for 2025!

Sunrise wants to honor our beloved Millie who spent many years living her best life with us.

Happy Holidays! May your day be filled with many happy quacks!

The ducks LOVE their water!!!

Despite being blind, Liliou is living her best life in her special pen where she knows where everything is. 😍

Ever wonder what happens when ducks are out in the rain? Check out Neville loving the downpour!!! 💧☔️🌧️

As we celebrate Thanksgiving, consider the real impacts the food-focused holiday has on animals, especially those in factory farms. Take some time to reflect on how our choices impact animals and the world as a whole. Every small change helps. This article has many great insights. https://vegnews.com/why-people-go-vegan-thanksgiving
