all too typical of wolves who are adopted as pets. Like most wild animals,
they do not adapt well to captivity and are usually surrendered to rescue
facilities (if they are lucky) or more often euthanized. For this reason, we
do NOT allow our rescued animals to breed, as we are morally opposed to
producing more captive wolves and hybrids.

Although Tazlina still has
residual post-traumatic stress
disorder from her prior home,
she loves her caretakers here
very much. She is thriving and
has even become less fearful
around visitors and volunteers.

Tazlina, a pure grey wolf, has been here longer than any other of our current
residents. She had been captured in Alaska then purchased as a wedding present
for a bride-to-be. When she came to us, she was seven months old and very sick
with pancreatitis, as well as other health issues.
With the loving and devoted care volunteers, 'Taz' was nursed back to health and
is now much happier.

| I've spent many nights at peace with myself ... alone with the wolves. I play my flute for them ... they compose the song. It is at these times when I remember who and what is important to me, When thoughts come most clear and memories are made. |

Wolf Song
| by Runs with Wolves aka Brenda |
Sunday, July 18, 2010, turned into a rescue day for two
wolves, male and female, that were surrendered to the
sanctuary. We had planned that this would happen soon and it
did! When we visited them today, they were so excited like
they knew what the plan was. Even at the sanctuary, Spirit
seemed to be aware that a huge change was coming. We
moved Spirit into the smaller pen, which has a great view and
plenty of shade. She settled right in and had a yummy bone
treat. Tazlina was a little upset that she couldn't see Spirit as
well but she calmed down.
The transportation of the two "newby's" went so well. The
male rode in the front and the female was crated in the back of
the truck. Christine stayed in back with the female to keep her
calm. They both were real troopers!
Once they were let out into their new home, they walked
side-by-side smelling everything. It was awesome...They
whined and kept coming to each board member to say thank
you! There wasn't a dry eye during this whole experience. Just
knowing how safe and happy they will be was a wonderful
feeling. Their reaction to the new surroundings they were
getting to know made the whole day complete.
Spirit and Tazlina accepted them immediately and Tazlina even
howled! It was a great day! We're all tired but relieved that it
went so well!
