June 2011 Hoofin It Home Adoption Event a Success

June 2011: Denkai's Hoofin It Home Adoption Extravaganza was a great success. Two horses and nine dogs found forever homes. Individuals had the opportunity to experience all of Denkai's Adoption Center facility including our newly opened thrift store, adoptable dogs and cats, our Equine facilities, and our educational center.

This will be an annual event and we hope that it will be even more fun next year!



Just a fraction of Denkai's team, these amazing boys work hard for the animals! Casey Babcock, Elijah Stone, Bastian Kruidenier, and Jake Shafer.



House Rabbit Society brought some adorable bunnies and tons of wonderful literature. It was great having them!



Amber Herrell with Shilo Acres Horse Rescue brought some beautiful horses, this amazing Belgian is still looking for a home!



Bee Quick Horseshoeing, Pat Hall is one of our many amazing sponsors. He helped Scott Clawson with the farrier clinic!



Cheeks Academy of Beauty Culture gave $5 haircuts and raised $50 for Denkai!



Darrin Hill, with his adopted pup. This little one was one of 7 puppies abandoned in Briggsdale, CO at the age of 5 weeks. What a trooper!



Holding pens at the Greeley facility: Bint Joi, Colby, and Dollar, all rescue horses are still seeking homes. These sweeties are all intermediate to experienced level ability.



Sandi Lucas and her husband say hello to the three blind baby goats that they so graciously took home to foster for Denkai. She will be keeping one of these sweeties permanently! The other two are still seeking homes and would like to stay together!



Judy Swenson talks with adopters regarding Bint Joi. In working to find the right match, they ended up adopting Lacy, another one of our wonderful Arabian mares!



Lynn Ryan, one of our amazing volunteers, visit with one of our blind baby goats before her departure for her new home with Sandy Lucas!



Chloe, is one of our amazing volunteers, and had a great time riding and working with Lacy, one of our amazing Arabian mares!

Goats of Denkai!

Denkai houses more than 10 wonderful and ornery goats. These precious babies have come to us from a variety of backgrounds, some from other rescue organizations, some from breeding and neglect situations that have gotten out of hand, and others impounded through local humane societies.

Boer goats such as the white and brown big boy in the photo below are harvested for their meat as a practice in the farming industry. Our big guy luckily escaped that fate thanks to your generous support!






DJ the Pot belly is Lovin It!


Ever seen a pot bellied pig smile! That's right! DJ is all grins and talk for his daily meal.

These eye capturing and amazing photographs taken by Judy Swenson tell a wonderful tale for this little fella!

Pot Bellied pigs, once a craze for their small size, ability to house train and cleanliness have phased out quite a bit and are ending up in rescue and sanctuary more and more. These smart babies require a very specific diet, routine tusk and toe trimming as well as vaccinations on a very basic maintenance level.

DJ came to Denkai due to a divorce.

Charlotte's Adventures!

The Great and Grand Adventures of Charlotte the Pig!

Charlotte, once a tiny piglet rescued by Larimer Humane Society and since residing with Denkai Animal Sanctuary has grown over the last two years from a 150 pound playful piglet into the beautiful and sweet 800 pound hog whom has become one of Judy's favorite farm subjects!

Not only does Charlotte help to clean her pen, she makes sure to get a visit in to her senior horse and pot bellied pig friends for all of the Denkai "dirt".

Charlotte is the lucky recipient on a daily basis of warm food, lots of straw bedding and the oh so wonderful daily belly scratchings of Miss Judy!

Charlotte loves visitors and will not hesitate to win them over with her funny antics!
