    They deserve a chance.

    I read this article about a married couple who started a haven for animals that other people had given up on. They met in a park while she was walking her dog and she learned that he had 6 cats. (Definitely a plus in my book.) They got married, quit their corporate jobs , used up all their savings to purchase 160 acres in Montana where they started Rolling Dog Ranch Animal Sanctuary. They started by taking in a blind horse that wouldn't even lift her had because her spirit had been broken. They eventually got the horse to trust and soon more animals came to them. Now they have 40 dogs, 30 horses and 10 cats. They adopt the animals out, if possible; if not, they stay there forever. Their main objective is to keep the animals safe. I think these people are incredible and, if you already know about this ranch, I apologize for the repeat. For those of you who aren't familiar w/this place, check out their website at: www.rollingdogranch.org.
    Blessings,
    Mary

    What an absolutely wonderful place for all these animals! I hope they get lots of money and volunteers, so they can continue this work.

    What a wonderful place, and what wonderful people to be doing this.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Oh I have seen this website before and I was so touched by what they do.
    That is such a dream way of life.
    Perhaps all of us on PT if we clubbed together all our money and sold our houses we could purchase land and all live together with our animals! Lol

    Seriously, these people are wonderful and are true saints.

    Thank God there are folks out there willing to do everything possible to help rejected, unwanted animals! These people have earned a very special place in heaven and I pray for their continued success!
