My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Helgen and Gimli!

These beautiful adult Boer goats are new residence here at Sanctuary One, so they are just getting accustomed to their new surrounds and humans again. Helgen (female, 7 years old) and Gimli (male, 6 years old) were found abandoned on a piece of property, rescuers believe they were alone for about 3 years.

After a intense rescue the 2 goats were taken to a horse rescue where they could be confined to a stall and receive veterinarian care. Gimli was castrated and Helgen was found to have very overgrown feet that causes her to place her front feet properly on the ground. Helgen is already moving around more freely but will need regular hoof trims to keep her feet in good condition.

Both goats are now friendly, love to be brushed and will eat treat out of your hand.

If you have a special place in your heart for these two amazing goats please fill out an Adoption Application today:

Additional adoption info

Most, but not all, of the Sanctuary's animals are available for adoption because the more animals we adopt out, the more endangered animals we can take in.

Every animal adopted from Sanctuary One comes with a lifetime promise. If something happens and you can no longer care for the animal you adopt, he or she is always welcome back at the Sanctuary.

Each animal available for adoption has been evaluated by a veterinarian and is current on vaccinations. They’ve also undergone a basic behavioral assessment and have had their diets evaluated and specialized as needed.

In addition, our staff provides free telephone/email counseling for all adopters. If you have any questions or concerns about your adopted animal, contact us and we'll do our very best to help you.

More about this rescue

Sanctuary One at Double Oak Farm is a nonprofit care farm where people, animals, and the earth work together for mutual healing.

Care farming (also known as green care, farm care, or farming for health), is well established in Europe, but is a relatively new concept in the United States.

Sanctuary One demonstrates how farming for health can be a cheap, natural, and effective means of healing people; how animals can be treated humanely and honored for their intrinsic physical and spiritual value; and how the environment that sustains us all can be steadily improved through organic and permaculture-inspired farming practices.
