We enjoyed it very much. We talked about having our grandchildren visit, but felt it was a little too long for them. Maybe for young children a shorter presentation might be a possibility.

A what wonderful, exciting and very interesting visit. I wish you all the success in the future!

We had an excellent visit to the Wolf center. It was well worth the early morning drive over from West Palm Beach. The visit was very educational and it was fantastic to interact with the wolves. What a great way to spend a morning.
- Rick Faulkner
We loved our visit to Shy Wolf Sanctuary. We were able to interact with Tien and some of the other wolves today. They are truly amazing animals. My favorite part was when all the wolves would howl together. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgable. It was a great experience. I will definitely recommend touring the sanctuary to all my friends and hope to come back to volunteer.

It was a wonderful day spent there with the beautiful animals! Loved the whole experience. The flute playing at the end was amazing and I loved how they all sang along with him!! Truly an amazing time. I will definitely be back!

Excellent and informative. Will return again and bring others.

This was a marvelous experience for myself and my daughter. We have wonderful pictures! We will write to the Bonita Springs council and recommend the move to Bonita - what an attraction for tourism, what a wonderful thing to do for the animals.

- Tina Bord
Thank you for providing a wonderful interactive experience with your beautiful animals. You do great work, both in caring for your amazing creatures and educating the public about their true nature and gentle spirit. The stories of the horrors some of your animals have survived, and the amazing resilience they have exhibited when treated with patience and loving care, are truly an inspiration.
- Claudia Carney
Really enjoyed your tour. In this world of cruelty and complete selfishness, it did my heart good to see what you do for those animals. You must feel their love and appreciation every day. They ask nothing from you but love and attention. You will have a place in animal heaven for sure and that is where I want to be. Keep up the good work, you are to be admired.
- Maureen Zinger
Was a great tour. We loved the hands on aspect. Better than any zoo we have ever visited. Our tour guide was very informative. Staff was very friendly. We enjoyed the animals immensely. We are definitely planning another tour and will recommend shy wolf to many others. Thank you for an amazing experience and for your endless dedication in preserving these beautiful creatures!
- Anna Marie Winschuh
Absolutely hands down the best experience! This is my second visit and I’m willing to drive 3 hours one way to visit these majestic creatures. Our guide was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be with. She listened to everyone’s questions and took the time to answer and expound on related facts. Thank you for another incredible adventure!!
- Melissa Stephens
Very unique, informative, awesome and humbling experience. These are incredible animals that you can spend hours just observing but to get that close and personal with them is just something almost indescribable. Feel blessed for the opportunity and thank all of you and your volunteers for the beautiful and memorable experience. We will pass the experience on to others and will be sure to bring visitors to florida with us next time we come.
- Anna Marie Winschuh
My son and I loved this experience!! We learned a lot and the love and respect given to the animals by the volunteers was admirable. Keep up the great work!!
