GoodSearch: You Search...We Give!
Survivor enjoying some grain. Survivor, the famous #22, is one of our miracle seven. This gentle, kind 30 year old gelding is skin and bones with a blind left eye and no teeth left for hay. Survivor is by far the thinnest of the 33 horses that were on this transport and yet his will to live is strong.

Survivor is on a diet of senior horse feed throughout the day and his energy and weight are picking up.

Fonz looking for his next visitor. The Fonz is a 300lb goat that roamed the streets of Fort Collins for about two weeks creating a flood of calls to the Larimer Humane Society. They were unable to apprehend this large escapee, so it was Denkai to the rescue!

Fonzie has a very happy go lucky personality and has quickly become a favorite here at the Sanctuary!

Charlotte Charlotte was picked up as a stray in the streets of Loveland by Larimer Humane Society. They quickly discovered her escapee potential after chasing her a few times and when nobody claimed her, she was passed on to our Sanctuary.

This little lady is around a year old and has a lot of growing to do! This is one pig that will never see a holiday dinner from the plate! She will live her life out here at our Sanctuary!

We would like to thank Cache La Poudre Feeds in Fort Collins for supplying her with plenty of feed for the next few weeks!

Chico struts his stuff for our camera. Say Hello to My Little Friend! Chico is a polish rooster. He was one of many purchased at a feed store and since he did not turn out a hen, he was unwanted. Chico is very sweet, loves to roost on his little house and would love to meet his sponsor.

Picture of Dakota enjoying the breeze through his mane. Dakota is a 7 year old Mustang Gelding. He was dropped at a local kill sale before being rescued. He has a bad stifle on his hind leg, but is not terribly lame. Dakota is handleable and would love a visit from a special sponsor.

Hope and Faith pose for our picture. Hope and Faith are two 11 year old mustang mares originally from a New Mexico Herd. They were adopted out by the BLM and used for breeding until the adopter decided that she no longer wanted to care for them and was going to shoot these two mares with two 5 day old babies at their sides.

Liberty, one of our resident mustangs, poses for a pictures. Liberty is now 13 years old. He was rounded up at the age of 7 by the BLM from a Nevada mustang herd. Liberty was then adopted by a Fort Collins area dude ranch that planned to use him as a trail horse with no previous training. When this backfired the owner ran Liberty through a local kill sale. Liberty has been safe with our Sanctuary for the last 6 years.

Our family of goats looking for who is bringing their grub. Nine goats from Colorado Springs have found Sanctuary at Denkai. These goats were becoming neglected due to owner depression issues. He started with three goats and ended up with 8.

These goats have not had a lot of handling, so were pretty wild when they first entered our Sanctuary, but have calmed down tremendously, 5 of these were bucks and have been castrated thanks to the help of Dr. Barb Roberts of Loveland, CO.

The three females are all very pregnant and due any day for kids. We are looking for homes for the male goats in a couple of weeks.

Mabel our favorite female turkey struts her stuff. Maybell is a domestic female turkey. She was the result of a feed store purchase, somebody who wanted her as a pet. Well a year later and way too much time in a cage left her headed for the chopping block and then a cook pot with very few feathers left to show on her breast or tail.

We thank her rescuers who worked hard to get her to our Sanctuary and save her from ending up as dinner. Maybell had no idea what to do with herself here. She knew humans but not what freedom was. Poor thing! She was at a loss for what to do here until she spotted two more turkeys! Now she happily roams free on our Sanctuary and her feathers are beginning to come back, she is so very inquisitive and a joy to pet!

Dotty our spirited llama poses for his picutre. Dotty is a 5 year old male llama. He has plenty of attitude and can be found wrestling with Frosty. If you like spunk and personality, sponsor Dotty today!

Eldora stares into our camera with her beautiful eyes. Eldora is an 11-year-old female goat. She is incredibly friendly and loves treats! Eldora had a rough run at a temporary home before she came to our sanctuary. She was a bit difficult to get along with at first, but thanks to the help of many volunteers and plenty of socializing, she has really taken a liking to everything!

Some our our resident sheep enjoying the sun. There are currently several sheep that call the sanctuary home. Three of them came from another sanctuary that shut down. They were the lucky ones, products of factory farming. Luckily, they have been able to live to a ripe old age in both of our sanctuaries.

The other three came from a herd which had been attacked, they were the three survivors. They are here to live out their lives and would absolutely enjoy your sponsorship and caring donations. They need alfalfa hay, salt, and minerals and enjoy a treat if you happen to have one hanging out in your pocket!
