Discover Best Friends A Place Where Every Animal Is Safe. . .Loved. . .And Never, Ever Killed

In the summer of 1982, a group of young men and women pooled every penny they had and bought 3,000 acres of high desert called Angel Canyon, Utah. It was to become the most famous “no–kill” animal sanctuary in the world. . .a haven for over 2000 furry and feathered friends including stiff–legged Benton who is “chairpurrson” of the TLC club. . .the infamous Goatie, comforter of horses. . .Baa Baa Ram Das, the sheep who teaches lessons. . .and Amra, the gigantic Malamute who is sheriff of Dogtown backed up by his deputy Rhonda, the tiny terrier who took one look at him and fell in love.This is its story. . .of how it came to be, the people who built it, and the animals who now and forever call it home.”SAMANTHA GLEN is the co-author, with Terri Crisp, of Out of Harm’s Way.
