That was kinda feelgood...for what the Gentle Barn is doing
The Gentle Barn has animal sanctuaries in Southern California and Tennessee. According to its website, the organization rescues animals from severe abuse and neglect that are “too old, sick, lame, or scared to be adopted into homes. The Barn is home to horses, donkeys, cows, pigs, sheep, goats, turkeys, chickens, llamas, peacocks, emus, cats and dogs who are allowed to live out their lives in peace.”
The Gentle Barn also works with disadvantaged children on its ranches, and uses animal husbandry as part of its therapeutic healing philosophy. So Weiner said the organization will work with the steers to ensure that they are comfortable with humans and can be cared for by youths and adults.
