Celebrate Spring with the animals of Home for Life!

Mark Luineburg's photographs capture the joy of the new season.

Earlier this month, longtime friend to Home for Life, Mark Luinenburg was out to the sanctuary for a spring time photo session. The winter of 2015-2016 was relatively mild compared to what we have been through in past years, but still, there's nothing like warmer temperatures, sunshine and the scent of a new season in the air - the animals can all feel the Chinook blowing, signaling that winter is over and that spring has come at last.

Cold Noses, Warm Hearts

In mid January, 2016, Farah Ravon, the United States representative for Vafa Animal Shelter visited the dogs and cats at the sanctuary.

Vafa Animal Shelter has partnered with Home for Life to provide care to animals across the world. Home for Life has accepted several dogs and two cats from Vafa's shelter. Farah wanted to check up on the progress of the animals previously in the care of Vafa.

International Rescues

DID YOU KNOW? At Home for Life Sanctuary, we care for animals from all over the United States and also many foreign countries.

Currently, about 10 % of our animals come from other countries, and we care for dogs and cats who have come to us from Thailand, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, Canada, Saudi Arabia and Iran.

Some ask why we would help animals from other countries, and wonder how these animals find their way to Home for Life from thousands of miles away.

Home for Life's sponsor program provides lots of subject matter for student volunteer!

Home for Life volunteer Susie Kixmoeller, a sophomore at Blake School, is an avid photographer with an interest in pursuing her interest professionally someday.

Pictured at the right are Susie and her parents meeting famous photographer William Wegman at our annual Fall Fancy Feast.

This late summer, she spent the day with us at the sanctuary photographing our animals for our sponsorship program!

The Story of the Year at Home for Life is featured

 

Our latest mailing to our supporters features what has had to be the story of the year at Home for Life. It is the rescue of Rory, a beautiful hound, who was left tied to our gate by an anonymous person. Abandoned in the cold at Home for Life last November 30, 2014; Rory, was starving, cold, scared and very pregnant. The very next day, she gave birth to TEN adorable puppies, all of whom survived, and the adventure began!
