I know we haven’t posted in a while, the move was very difficult and we are just now starting to get settled in. Pickles was very pleased with an offering of homade blueberry muffins this morning.

We come to you with some devastating news. We came home last night and discovered that someone decided to dump their old hunting dog in our duck enclosure here at Iron Will. Sadly there were no survivors. The dog was surrendered by us to the local no kill animal shelter this morning. Doing the right thing by the dog was to surrender him to a safe place. Doing the wrong thing was for someone to trespass onto the property, open the latched duck enclosure and dump their senior hunting dog.
Sadly we will never see Duckula, Dark Wing or Duckworth enjoying their pools or being overjoyed by any type of precipitation again.

Duckworth and Duckula were male Peking’s. This type of duck normally never makes it past 6 weeks of age. They are bred for meat and they are killed before they even got a chance to really live. These brothers lived here for the past two years enjoying life to the fullest. Dark Wing was a Welsh Harlequin duck. They’re a very beautiful, and very smart breed. He enjoyed swimming in the deep pond and sleeping in the sunshine.

These boys are dearly missed by all of us here. This morning was the first time that the roosters didn’t crow and the pigs did yell for their breakfast. Fly high beautiful friends 🌈🦆’til we meet again.

We would like to welcome our newest member to the family. This is little girls mother was rescued from a cull pen at a guinea pig show by an amazing lady. She suspected the mother was pregnant and low and behold she had three beautiful babies. This little girl is going to live her life being a companion to our other guinea pig Ethel, who recently lost her friend Lucy to diabetes.

If you consider having a guinea pig as a pet please do your research. They typically enjoy company and require a clean place to live with fresh, water, hay and food at all times.

Welcome! We are Iron Will Animal Sanctuary a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to saving the lives of animals in need.

This pretty girl is Pickles!
Pickles is such a feisty lady with a passion for basking in the sun and tanning her belly.
Pickles can be pretty particular with who she trusts. She came from deplorable conditions.
She was lock in a dark stall with no access to fresh water, sun, or food. She had a raging bladder infection and her hoofs were so overgrown that she couldn’t stand (they are still in transition)Pickles would navigate everything on her knees.

With lots of love, good care and medical attention Pickles is now living her best life!

Please consider donating to help other animals like Pickles or if you would like to sponsor this feisty girl please contact us.
