« September Volunteer Orientation

Open

Open

A long-overdue spotlight on the Rafeld family, who have been volunteering with us weekly throughout the summer. This multigenerational team consistently shows up ready to work, never shying away from getting their hands dirty. Volunteering on the farm isn’t always glamorous, but no task has been too daunting for this dedicated group!

We also want to extend a huge thank you to all our volunteers. Whether you’re transporting our dogs and puppies, mucking stalls, serving on our board, or supporting us in any other way, we couldn’t do this work without you. ❤️

Field of Dreams ✨🌸🌾

This summer, we had the pleasure of hosting two groups of animal welfare enthusiasts for a field-to-fork, immersive dinner on the farm.

Our goal was to share the farm’s contagious energy in a sustainable way. @aska_langman and board member @arielmannyoga served as chefs, using locally sourced, vegetarian ingredients from @tetonfullcirclefarm. The entire board pitched in—cutting grass, offering up their liquor cabinets, and more. Aska’s husband, Will, who’s also a full-time volunteer, built the table and helped craft signage and menus from scrap wood. We thrifted plates and decor, and food waste went straight to the pigs. Flowers were provided by @redhouseflowers, beer by @grandtetonbrewing, and @thetruckerbar joined us too. It was a fun challenge ensuring that every ticket sold directly supported our mission. All hands on deck for the animals!

We hope this is just the beginning. If you want a seat at the next Field of Dreams, happening in Summer 2025, send us a DM with your email. See you then!

And as always, thank you. ❤️

The inn is full and has been almost all summer! Here’s a little spark notes of our current residents:

🐶 Puppy Palace 1️⃣ has @chappellroan and her four, Top Hits Corgi mix puppies. They came from @landerpetconnection and will be getting adopted through @landerpetconnection! Fill out an application with them to get in line. Just because they have short legs and are cute though doesn’t mean they’re gonna be a great fit for everyone though. Remember that Corgis (and potentially Cattle Dogs) were bred to be working dogs!

🐶 Puppy Palace 2️⃣ is filled with Olympia and her six, @olympics puppies! They hailed from @landerpetconnection and will be adoptable through @idahohumanesociety. Mom is a small/medium weighing in about 30lbs. These Heinz 57 pups are going to be a great size and temperament if anything like their momma.

🐶 Puppy Palace 3️⃣ is The Crescent City litter (shoutout @sarahjmaas) and the mom, Cervos, and her eight puppies were rescued by @bestfriendsanimalsociety in Kanab, UT before joining our program and will be adoptable on August 19 through our friends at @srasanimalshelter.

We have 2️⃣1️⃣ dogs in total in our care now of different shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments who will all be available through our regional partners. We are lucky to play a small role in their journey and set them up for as much success as possible! ❤️‍🔥

Let’s talk about expectations. 🤓 🐶

Setting realistic expectations for our canine friends is crucial for their success and well-being, even if it’s not always obvious. Whether you’ve just adopted a dog and are integrating them into your life or you have an established family pet, it’s important to set them up for success. Remember, you don’t need to take your dog to every BBQ, they might not always be able to be unleashed, and sometimes they don’t need to join you on that massive hike. Just like humans, if your dog is uncomfortable, overtired, or overstimulated, they won’t be their best selves either!

How can we adjust our expectations to make our lives easier on ourselves and our canine companions happier?! ❤️
