Every animal we take in has a special place in our hearts and some end up staying with us... for one reason or another. We take our time getting to know each one of the animals and teaching them that not all humans are going to abuse, abandon, neglect, or harm them. It takes time to earn trust from an animal, it is a privilege not a "given". This takes a lot of patience and an undetermined amount of time. In some cases, because of their past, an animal will bond with one person and not allow another to approach them; for this reason SRR may become their forever home. Nevertheless each animal that comes here is given as much love & time as they need to heal physically and mentally. We want every animal to experience what their life should be whether it be here or with their new forever family.
If you are seriously interested in an animal you see listed on this page or have visited/seen one at our ranch please email us at smithrescueranch@yahoo.com . We will get back to you as soon as possible to answer questions & make arrangements for a meet & greet. There will be prerequisites that must be agreed upon & met before any animal is placed with it's new owner.
SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY PLEASE Thank you!

Animals currently available:
 "Blake", DOB June 2007. He is a young adult intact male llama. He is old enough to be gelded now. He would make a great guardian or pasture companion. Contact us for more information.
 "Bleu", DOB June 14, 2008. He is a juvenile male llama who was born here on the ranch to Ruby. Because of his small size I would NOT recommend him as a guardian because of his small size but as a companion pet and for fiber. Contact us for more information.
*A little about llamas: Llamas are fantastic guardians for other livestock. They will deter coyotes, foxes and stray dogs. Some of our llamas will be awesome for livestock guardians, the small/young ones can become awesome 4-H llamas, and/or companion pets. Their hair (fiber) may also be used to make yarn! Male Llamas may not be gelded until they are 18 months of age. If they are gelded at an earlier age it will lead to medical problems for them.

 "Eddie", DOB 04/08/09, spade female Parson Russell Terrier, she is UTD on her vaccinations. She is a bright, very active dog that loves attention and is very eager to please you! Eddie is best suited as an ONLY pet in the home, as she needs to be supervised around cats and other dogs. If you are interested please contact us for more information & to schedule a meet & greet!
***We would also consider a foster family for Eddie. If you are interested please contact us. ☺

ANIMAL'S TEN COMMANDMENTS
1. My life is likely to last 10-15+ years depending on what type of animal I am. Any separation from you is likely to be painful for me.
2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.
3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being.
4. Don't be angry with me for long and don't lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainment, but I have only you.
5. Talk to me. Even if I don't understand your words I do understand your voice when speaking to me.
6. Be aware that however you treat me I will never forget it.
7. Before you hit me, before you strike me, remember that I could hurt you and yet I choose not to.
8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I'm not getting the right food , I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak.
9. Please take care of me when I grow old. You too will grow old.
10. On the ultimate difficult journey go with me please. Never say you can't bear to watch. Don't make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there because I love you so.
Take a moment today to thank God for your pets. Enjoy and take good care of them. Life would be a much duller, less joyful experience without God's creatures. Now please pass this on to other animal owners. We do not have to wait for Heaven to be surrounded by hope, love and joyfulness. It is here on Earth and has two or four legs!
* ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ * ♥ *
You as an animal owner/caretaker are obligated by the law to provide food/water, shelter and medical treatment for me. If you cannot do these things for me please find someone that can and will. Thank you! |
