Good morning, everyone!
There will be no YouTube live this morning as we prepare to welcome our Autumn Open Ranch guests. I did want to share an update on our day 1 EPIC pumpkin drive with @temecula mama 🎃 SO MUCH GOODNESS.
Happy Saturday, friends. Thank you for supporting our life changing work.
Meet Cooper, a gentle, resilient survivor from a goat dairy farm where animals are genetically altered to maximize milk production. He’s one of the lucky few—saved from a life of cruelty and is now living peacefully at our sanctuary.
Cooper’s story is heartbreaking: he had his horn buds burned off when he was less than two days old, a painful process meant to prepare him for live shipment overseas. The farmer shared with us that, "It's all about volume, knowing the boys will become unalive in the end may seem selfish, but I really do enjoy playing with DNA. It fascinates me."
This cruel method went too deep, leaving Cooper with a lifelong neurological disorder. Yet, despite everything, Cooper remains sweet and kind—a true symbol of hope and resilience.
Thankfully, we were able to rescue 20 baby boys from this farm, finding loving homes for many and welcoming seven of them into forever sanctuary here at our ranch. But we can only do this life-changing work with the help of steady, recurring donations. Your monthly support is essential to bring hope and sanctuary to animals like Cooper, whose only other future is one without kindness or safety.
Our goal this month is to welcome 8 new monthly donors by October’s end. With your support, we only need 5 more! With your help, we can reach this goal and continue rescuing vulnerable animals who have no hope without our intervention.
If you’re ready to be part of Cooper’s village of kindness, please sign up at www.saleranch.org/superhero
Together, let’s bring hope and refuge to those who need it most. Thank you for believing in this mission. #ittakesavillage

Meet the Cowboys
🐄 Meet The Cowboys: Whiskey, Waffles, and Walnut 🐄
These three resilient calves were rescued from heartbreaking conditions on an organic dairy farm. Separated from their mothers at birth, they were denied essential care, leaving them critically ill. But thanks to compassion and determination, they were saved just in time.
💚 Whiskey is playful and full of life, always up for a scratch from visitors.
💚 Waffles, born blind, has adapted beautifully, relying on his brothers for support.
💚 Walnut, who was born with a heart condition, receives ongoing care to ensure he thrives.
They are living proof of what love and care can achieve. Stay tuned for more on their journey to health and happiness here at Sale Ranch!
Join us this Giving Tuesday on December 3rd to support their continued care and help us rescue more animals like them. Every dollar donated will be doubled, thanks to a $10K match! 🙌

This baby is 100% JOY
The weather has finally cooled, and we're excited for Sully to have her spay done with Dr Rosen soon. We will be preparing her little house and shared run with CB for their introductions next month.
In the meantime, our crew and volunteers have been loving on and helping to keep her busy playing. ❤️
If you had half her energy, what would you do?
We are only 6 new monthly donors away from our October goal. If you have $1 or more and would like to help we'd sure be grateful. You can sign up www.saleranch.org/superhero

Because a farmhand chose kindness, we were able to rescue Whiskey as a newborn baby and turn a dire ending into a happily ever after. Whiskey now gets to grow up and grow old here at the ranch with his brothers.
Kindness is beautiful not just to those receiving it but also for those offering it.💚

She's the MOST perfect baby ever, and she's growing like watered weeds do. 🌱🐷
Hearing folks chew their food is like nails on a chalkboard to me... but listening to animals eat so joyfully is one of my favorite things! Happy slops with the Sully Goose girl ❤️

🎃Pumpkin Drive Alert! Help Us Reduce Waste & Feed Rescued Animals! 🌱
Did you know that 1.9 billion pounds of pumpkins are grown for Halloween each year? Sadly, within 48 hours after the holiday, more than 80% of them begin to make their way to our landfills, where they rot and release methane gas — a harmful greenhouse gas. But we can make a difference!
Instead of letting your pumpkins go to waste, donate your uncarved, unpainted pumpkins to our drop-off locations in SoCal. 🧡 We are thrilled to team up with Temecula Mama to bring attention to smaller animal sanctuaries. Your donations will feed rescued farm animals a lovely snack and reduce waste at the same time.
It's a win for the planet, a treat for the animals, and sure to make your heart smile. 🐷🧡🐔 Drop-off locations will be announced soon, so stay tuned!
🚫🌎 Not in SoCal? No worries! Reach out to local sanctuaries in your area and ask if they could use your leftover pumpkins.
With your help, we can make this pumpkin season greener and kinder. 🎃🌱
Additional details will also be sent via email soon, so be sure and sign up for emails at www.saleranch.org
Happy Pumpkin Season, friends!
