A Native American Legend Says:
"When a human dies, there is a bridge they must cross to enter into Heaven. At the head of the bridge awaits every animal that human has encountered during their lifetime. The animals, based on what they know of this person, decides which humans may cross the bridge, and which humans are turned away."

Sampson's story:
Sampson is a sweet, 9 year old wolf hybrid with a heartbreaking backstory. His former owner purchased him on the side of the road as a puppy after witnessing his breeder beating him. When he was 6 years old, he and 2 other wolves (one being his mom) escaped from their owners yard. All 3 were shot by a local off duty sheriff due to fear and some element of ignorance. Sampson survived... unfortunately his two companions did not. The veterinarian was unable to remove the bullet that struck Sampson, and he has lived with PTSD since the event. To make matters worse, the previous owner reported that very nearby neighbors regularly shoot their guns in the Arizona desert, further traumatizing and frightening him on a routine basis.
He was left so anxiety ridden from the shooting that he had not been petted/touched by his owner or others in nearly two years, nor could his owner get close or entice him to come to a call. The prior owner reached out to Reborn for assistance with her 2 wolf hybrids due to increasing difficulty caring for them and impending eviction.
Sampson was so anxious and stressed when Reborn arrived to pick him up, that after attempting to coax him for about an hour to our transport cage, we decided to not stress him further and contacted a veterinarian we were meeting with for our next rescue. She met us onsite and sedated him for a vet exam, and to load him safely.
*Sampson is doing wonderful. He is learning to trust again. He loves to play, take a dip in the pool, nap and catch and take treats from his caregivers.

BARN CATS:
Leo (girl), Lynx (boy), Luna (girl) were rescued from the Denver Dumb Friends League Barn Cat Program the beginning of November, 2019.
Leo, Lynx and Luna decided they did not want to be barn cats and ventured from Reborn to explore the world.
We hope they are still around enjoying life with lots of snuggles.

CAMELLA
Dromedary Camel (one hump): Camella, our sweet Dromedary Camel, crossed the rainbow bridge on 7.3.19. Camella traveled all the way from Oklahoma to meet her family at her new forever home. She was up for auction to the highest bidder for exploitation & entertainment purposes when we rescued her. She has given thousands of rides in her lifetime & comes with a history of neglect & mistreatment at the hands of her owner. Her owner no longer had a use for her and left her to die, when a neighbor offered to take her off his hands and ultimately sold her to an exotic animal auction for profit. Camella had a very large nasal-pharyngeal mass. We had several vets, CSU and camel experts look at her several times. Based on the extent of the tumor obliterating her nasopharynx, much of the oropharynx, and the caudal nasal passages, they did not believe the tumor was operable. All of the doctors told us if we did not intervene, that she would slowly suffocate. Camella was a very sweet girl who did not let her sickness slow her down. She lived the best time of her life with us. She brought us joy and we are blessed to have had her in our lives. We love and miss you, Camella.
