Stories

And The Lessons Which Can Be Learned

“The gaze of the wolf
reaches into our souls.”

Barry Lopez – Of Wolves and Men

The Stories contained in this section are recounted, to the best of our knowledge, about the individual animals. Many of them, we believe, have been mistreated to some degree, due to ignorance on the part of otherwise well-intentioned humans. When we surmise specific treatment or trauma of an animal, we have chosen not to inject our beliefs into their stories. We also have left out some of the champions who have been instrumental in saving many of the animals at the sanctuary. This was due to their wishes to not be recognized.

Ultimately, all of the animals at the sanctuary are here because of human failings. When humans do not understand or take into account the nature of the animal, the animal suffers. When humans are not willing or able to accommodate those needs, the animal suffers.

Wolf believes that these animals are sentient beings, with spirits and souls that make their lives and feelings important. We do not believe that they are disposable commodities, or property to be used and discarded at the whim of their caretakers.

Additionally, Wolf does not specify reported percentages in the mix of animals between wolf and dog. In most cases, we believe that the numbers given to owners were either incorrect, or later misstated. The bottom line with genetic mixing makes those numbers irrelevant, anyway.

The following breakdown gives a listing of which animals are grouped together, in the event that you are interested in those relationships (you may click on their name to go to their story):
