The Gentle Barn, a non-profit animal sanctuary that rescues, houses and cares for abandoned, traumatized, at-risk cows, horses, goats, pigs, turkeys and more at three locations in the U.S., has a special Father's Day program featuring some of the most beloved non-human dads in the "herd." For a donation of $10 or more, you can honor fathers or father figures in your lives by supporting the organization's special programs, where veterans, trauma victims and others can experience solace and healing in the presence of animals. The donation is made in dads' name and you'll receive a digital, ready to print card featuring the animal "dad" of your choice, Merlin (goat), Magic (horses) or Chico (cow). Gentle Barn founder Jay Weiner says that up until now, much of the spotlight has been on the mothers and babies at Gentle Barn facilities but that the dads, who are just as loving and protective of their young, deserve a special shout out.
