💌 Love Notes for July
We are thrilled to celebrate 11 amazing adoptions and 15 dogs placed in foster this past month.
You may have noticed that intake has slowed down a bit, with fewer new dogs coming into the rescue. This is only temporary as our primary focus is:
1) ensuring we get our current dogs into the right forever and foster homes and
2) getting the new Love's Legacy Rescue Ranch ready!
Introducing Love's Legacy Rescue Ranch
This facility is essential to the future of our lifesaving efforts. It will allow us to help dogs who would otherwise have nowhere to go and provide them with the environment they need to thrive while we search for the perfect home.
The property itself was once a dairy farm, and the building we are transforming into our rescue ranch was originally used for milking cows. Because of that, it has extensive electrical infrastructure that has already been upgraded, giving us a strong foundation to build from.
We love the idea that a place that once was used to exploit animals will now have a new purpose helping animals in need.
The ranch sits on 21 beautiful acres in a unique pocket of Sonoma County where the temperatures tend to stay cooler thanks to the ocean breeze. The building has air conditioning, concrete construction that helps keep it naturally cool, and excellent airflow. Behind us, 10 cows still call the property home, and we have access to walk our dogs throughout the surrounding acreage, giving them space to decompress, explore, and enjoy the outdoors. The property also includes a home where three of our team members will be living, allowing us to have a consistent on-site presence and provide even more hands-on care for the dogs.
Right now, we are starting from the ground up. We have a lot of work ahead of us, and we are so excited to invite you to join us however you can.
