Shy Wolf Sanctuary Education & Experience Center forms partnerships with area organizations in our Healing Hearts program. Because our animals come to us from abused, abandoned and neglected situations, a magical healing connection is made with humans who have had similar experiences in their lives. Our animals teach us about kindness, forgiveness, gratitude, courage and unconditional love.
Healing Hearts experience:
Guests visit our sanctuary and experience an animal encounter with some of our animals. They learn about our animals, how they were rescued and that these animals live the rest of their lives here at the sanctuary. After the visit, they have fun working on art projects from painting wolf houses to making holiday ornaments and other animal inspired items. Finally, lunch is enjoyed next to our cougar Cimarron’s enclosure.
During this creative experience, healing happens to help build confidence and self-esteem. Our guests receive a very special necklace with Indy’s wolf hair enclosed in a glass vile. Why Indy? Our Indy girl was blind, but she was always happy and always found her way. We teach that if Indy could find her way, then so can our guests. The wolf now walks with them giving them courage and strength on their path to the future.
