 Can I bring my dog when I come to visit?
This is probably one of the most daunting questions we are asked. While we here at Edgar's Mission love ALL animals... including dogs (several rescued dogs live here) and we are sure we would love yours, but as you would imagine, our first priority is to the rescued animals in our care. Some of our farm animal residents are very frightened of dogs they don't know. They have had traumatic experiences in the past and will not understand that your dear pup means them no harm. It is very important to the rehabilitation of our rescued animals that they feel safe. Dogs, like us humans are naturally very excited when they come to visit but unlike us humans many are not able to contain their excitement. This can lead to a distracted human trying to calm their dog and in doing so they may not experience all that Edgar’s Mission has to offer.
So we ask that in the best interests of all that you please leave your K9 family at home.
We thank you for your understanding. |
