🎄🐾 Season’s Greetings from all of us at St. Francis Animal Sanctuary & Rescue! 🐾🎄
This happy face says it all. Full hearts, wagging tails, and so much gratitude. As the year comes to a close, we just want to say thank you to every supporter, adopter, volunteer, foster, and donor who helps make our sanctuary a place of healing and second chances.
Because of you, scared animals find safety, broken spirits learn to trust again, and joyful moments like this are possible every single day. 🥰
From our sanctuary family (two-legged and four-legged alike), we wish you a season filled with love, warmth, and lots of slobbery kisses. 🐶✨🫢
Thank you for being part of our mission.

All Captain wants for the holidays is a home of his own 🎄

After surviving unimaginable trauma and a long year of healing thanks to our Mardi Paws, Captain has proven to be one of the sweetest, most deserving dogs you’ll ever meet. Gentle, loving, and resilient. He’s ready for a family who will love him the way he deserves ❤️

✨️THE SENIOR WHO WAS OVERLOOKED… UNTIL TODAY ✨️
Yesterday we celebrated a very special boy who has waited far too long for his moment to shine. Meet Teriyaki, our super smart, gentle senior who was constantly overlooked because of the grey in his face… but oh, if only everyone knew how much gold was in his heart. ✨🐾
After all those days of watching younger dogs get chosen first, Teriyaki finally found a family who looked past the silver on his muzzle and saw the wisdom, love, and loyalty he carries with him. And today? He walked out the door with his head high and his tail wagging, ready to start the forever he’s always deserved. 🏡💛

Enjoy your golden years, sweet Teriyaki.
Your story just got the happiest ending. 💕

Today, we want to take a moment to celebrate someone whose dedication has shaped who we are, our Animal Care Supervisor Ashley.

Ashley has been part of the St Francis Animal Sanctuary & Rescue family for three years, and during that time she has become one of the absolute pillars of our operations. She is steady, consistent, and grounding . The kind of person everyone instinctively looks to when things get chaotic. In emergencies, she is calm. In stressful moments, she is clear headed. No matter what is happening around her, she shows up with grace and unwavering focus on what matters most, the animals. She is a natural with them. Patient, intuitive, and able to connect even with the most anxious or frightened animals.

She constantly looks for ways to improve our processes, elevate our standards, and make sure every animal receives the best care we can give. Ashley doesn’t just do her job, she strengthens the mission. She helps set the tone for what excellent animal care looks like.
Thank you for your loyalty, your work ethic, your heart, and your belief in what we’re building.

Every single day at St Francis Animal Sanctuary & Rescue, the heartbeat of our operations comes from one person who keeps it all running smoothly, our Sanctuary Manager, Felicia. 💚

Felicia’s dedication and compassion for the animals in our care are unmatched. Sunrise to sunset, she oversees every detail of our 52 acre sanctuary. From managing daily routines, ensuring every animal receives the love and attention they deserve, coordinating vet and clinic visits, feeding, and so much more. Her hands on leadership keeps our entire team organized and our animals safe, happy, and thriving.

Her work is not easy. It takes strength, patience, and an endless amount of heart. But Felicia shows up every day with a determination that inspires everyone around her. Thanks to her, our sanctuary runs like a well-oiled machine, even when the days are long and the challenges are many.

Please join us in showing some love and appreciation for Felicia, the woman behind so much of what makes St Francis Animal Sanctuary & Rescue such a special place. 🐾💚

🐾 Sunday smiles start with the best news… QUINTON GOT ADOPTED! 🎉💙

Our goofy, lovable boy FINALLY found his forever family! From zoomies to snuggles, Quinton finally has a place (and people) to call his own. 🥰

We’re so proud of how far he’s come, and we can already tell he’s going to soak up every bit of love and attention he deserves. 😊

Happy tails, Quinton! You’ve officially graduated from rescue life to spoiled for life. 🐶🎓💫

Hey everyone, I’m Quinton!
Thanks to the amazing folks at Jenny Lazo & Associates, my adoption fee is fully covered, because they think I deserve my fairytale ending. 🩵 Contact (985) 630-7627 for a meet and greet or apply at sfas.org

I’m a fun-loving pup with a heart full of love and just a hint of stubbornness to keep things interesting. 😎
I’ve been waiting patiently for my forever home, a place filled with snuggles, laughter, and someone to call my own. Some people say I’m “too old” or “not cute enough,” but I wish they could see what’s in my heart. I’m only a year and a half old, and I have so much love left to give. ❤️
All I need now is someone who will look past the labels and see me for who I really am, a loyal, goofy, loving companion who’s just waiting for his person.
Take a chance on me, please. I’ve been dreaming of the day my tail gets to wag all the way home with you. 🐶💫

Quinton’s Adoption Fee is Covered! 🙌
A huge thank-you to Jenny Lazo & Associates for sponsoring this handsome boy! They saw the amazing dog he is, and we hope his future family does too. 💕 We just need someone willing to look past the surface and see the incredible soul underneath.

Poor Quinton has had it rough. He was dumped as a baby, brought to the sanctuary, and then watched his mom and sister get adopted while he stayed behind. But even after all that, Quinton still holds out hope for his forever home. 💔

You might be wondering why he’s still here, and honestly, so are we. The sad truth? Quinton isn’t “catch your eye cute.” We’ve been told that more than once 😭. And now that he’s a year and a half old, people say he’s “too old.” 🙄
What Quinton lacks in looks, he's more than makes up for in love, laughter, and loyalty. ❤️
He’s playful, laid back, a little stubborn (in the best way), and absolutely adores children. He does great with other dogs too!

Message us or apply at sfas.org for more information or to set up a meet and greet!

🎃🐾 Our Handsome Halloween Hunk is Still on the Hunt for his forever home! 🐾🎃
This goofy boy has been with us for a year and a half, and we can’t believe he hasn’t found his forever family yet! Quinton is the full package:
✨ Playful enough to keep you laughing
✨ Silly and stubborn in the most lovable way
✨ Great with kids and other dogs
✨ Loyal with a heart full of love
Quinton’s only request? No cats please as he’s got a bit too much prey drive for that. 🐱🚫
He’s been waiting far too long for his happily ever after, and we know the right family is out there. Could it be you? 💕
Come meet Quinton and see why he’s impossible not to love. 🐶 Bonus: His adoption fee is sponsored! 🙌

Quinton has waited long enough. He's ready for the family who will see past "just the face" and discover the goofy, loyal, loving dog he truly is.

At a year and a half, Quinton may not win a "cutest dog" contest, but he has something far more special, a heart overflowing with love. He's the kind of dog who will greet you with the biggest tail wags that move his entire body, snuggle up after a long day, and keep you laughing with his playful, sometimes stubborn, personality.

His only request? A cat free home (because cats and Quinton don't exactly mix).

The best part is Quinton's adoption fee is fully sponsored thanks to the amazing, Jenny Lazo & Associates in hopes of finding his forever home.

Message us today for more information and let's get this boy the family he deserves.
