Happy Trails Farm Animal Sanctuary Inc. is a non-profit (501c3) organization that rescues, rehabilitates, and provides an adoption program for abused, abandoned, and neglected farm animals such as horses, ponies, pot belly pigs, farm pigs, chickens, ducks, turkeys, sheep, goats, and cattle. Happy Trails serves the entire state of Ohio, and works in cooperation with county humane societies, animal protective leagues, and local and state law enforcement officers.
This Christmas, Happy Trails has set up a giving tree program! It’s so easy to participate and convenient as well. Here’s two options for you to choose from:
1. Visit one of the participating locations in person listed below and then:
• Select an ornament from the Giving Tree.
• Purchase the item listed on the back of the ornament for the rescued farm animals from the store you are visiting. Leave the item at the store and a Happy Trails volunteer will pick up donated merchandise during the holiday season.
• Take the ornament home and proudly hang it on your tree as a reminder that you made a difference this holiday season!
2. Call in to one of the participating locations, and then:
• Provide a credit card number over the phone and request that an amount of your choosing be donated to Happy Trails. The store will apply that amount to Happy Trails so we can purchase items for the animals, and you will receive a thank you, tax receipt and ornament in the mail!

Have you been to the new Happy Trails Gift Shop yet?
This is another way you can find a special gift that is NOT run-of-the-mill for a hard to buy person on your list while you support the sanctuary. 100 percent of the sales will go directly for the care of the animals while you get to take home a very unique item. Check out their warm toasty hoodies! And look at all the colors – not just grey, black, and white! Calendars, mugs, blankets, mouse pads, along with a nice wearable selection are all waiting for you!
Who benefits from these sales? Well – take a look at a few of these once very sad but now very merry farm animals! Many are adoptable now, some are in recovery, and some are permanent residents, but all need care and support. Please visit their website for more information about adopting, sponsorship, and volunteering.
