We all have our own ideas of the definition of heaven on earth. For farm animals often subjected to unspeakable cruelty, abuse, and neglect, heaven on earth comes after rescue. It’s a safe place to heal from physical and emotional trauma, to learn to trust humans, and to safely live out their lives in peace. Meet some of the rescued farm animals who’ve found heaven on earth at this sanctuary in Kentucky.
Good Acres Sanctuaries, in Lawrenceburg, provides a lifelong safe haven for rescued farm animals.
