We’ve been having some lovely weather in the Pacific Northwest this past week which means we all want to spend time outside. Come see who’s enjoying the chute and the Bray!
Negra has always loved when her caregivers dance for her. She is great at finding the beat and grooving along with us. I personally don’t know where this came from but her passion for rhythm has sparked silliness and laughter in all of us to entertain her with our good and bad dance moves.
See that girl, watch her gleam, she’s our Dancing Queen!
Welcome to the Chimp Olympics! See who surprised us with their gold, silver and bronze performances.
Do you ever have one of those mornings where you’re just not ready to get out of bed? All you want to do is pull the covers over your head and hide from the world.

Just five more minutes . . . pleeeeeease!

But you get a strange feeling that someone is staring at you.
Maybe your dog or cat or child or maybe an annoying caregiver?
You decide to take a quick peek to see who’s there.

“Yes, it’s us,” said the Squishmallows, “we’re hungry.”
It’s been a wacky winter in the Pacific Northwest! Sunshine in February, snow in March. Let’s take a walk together around Young’s Hill and see what the weather will do.
Today, as part of our Valentine’s Day series, let’s fall in love with Betsy and Honey.
I wanted to share about Betsy and Honey together because they are the bovine moms of our sanctuary pastures (Betsy is mom to Nutmeg and Honey is mom to Meredith) and they are both foodies. But what I love most about these two wonderful bovines is their personalities are so very different!
If you find your heart bursting with love after today’s video, you can become a bovine buddy by visiting the link here.
