Siobhan
and Pete Poole take in abandoned or abused animals at their small rural
property, southwest of Stratford (Ontario, Canada).
The animals that make it to the Pooles' farm are
lucky. it's the animal version of winning the lottery.

Siobhan and one of the supporters feeding the goats.
When rescued by Animal Outreach, these goats were described
as "of the pygmy variety" and kept in rabbit cages. Once free and properly fed,
they grew and grew. |

The way the Pooles think all farm
animals should live - free to roam around.

The Pooles spend about
$5,000. a year of their own money feeding and caring for the animals.
Sponsorships and donations are always appreciated.
Large animals
(goats, sheep or pigs) cost from $240 to $360 per year to keep.
Smaller
ones (chickens or turkeys) between $60. and $120.
