Meet Arnold. He is a chonky boy at 200 pounds. Arnold isn't thrilled about his new diet and he will do just about anything for extra treats. He is a bit of an escape artist but doesn't wander too far when he does. The vet says he is around 3 years. Arnold can be bossy with other animals but lives with other pigs currently. He is an outside pig here at the Sanctuary but may have been an inside one in the past. His adoption fee is $100 to an approved adopter. He is neutered. Call or text 765-969-4782 for more information.
Dave
Arnold
Marco
We met Dave on a rescue run to pick up some dogs. Dave is a real sweet talker and convinced us that even though he is a unique addition that he would find his place, and he has. Dave spends his days loose in the Sanctuary yard monitoring all who come and go. Pull in the drive and Dave will be sure to give his cock-a-doodle-doo to let everyone know you are here. Dave is also head of rodent management in which he works closely with the cats. After a hard days work he retires to his roost in the garage.
Marco
Marco
Marco
Marco is a shy pigger who prefers the company of other pigs or his friend Dave the rooster. When he first came to the Sanctuary he was very overweight but he is looking good now. He is a smaller guy at around 125 pounds. He likes his outdoor area and his walks with friends. His new home needs to have another pig that will let him follow their lead. His adoption fee is $100 and he is neutered. For more information call or text 765-969-4782
Piper
Marco
Piper
Our sweet Piper girl. When she arrived at the Sanctuary she tipped the scales at over 300 pounds. Since then she has changed her diet and kept up with her exercise. She is starting to get her girlish figure back and will soon be able to be spayed. After she is spayed she will go up for adoption.
About The Sanctuary
About Liberty Acres
Liberty Acres is a 22 acre sanctuary devoted to enriching the lives of animals as they wait for a "forever family". We strive to provide a loving and homelike environment to senior, geriatric, disabled and hospice dogs. These dogs come from other shelters where time is limited and resources are in short supply. We offer these "death row" dogs a place where they can get back to health and be re-homed. Some become permanent residents due to health issues. Check out our Sanctuary Citizen section.
Accommodations for our Dogs
While at Liberty Acres, dogs enjoy accommodations in cozy, tiny homes with access to a doggy door and a fenced in area. The houses are air conditioned in the summer and heated in the winter. You will find the dogs lounging about on a couch or snuggled up in a bed. There are trained staff that live on the property, therefore the dogs never feel alone. Daily Activities for the dogs include: hikes in the woods, off leash running in the 6 acre fenced area and a 3 acre pond.
The Cat Cabin
The Sanctuary is currently working on new enclosures for our feline friends. These new spaces at the main house or Cat Cabin will allow the cats to live in colonies and have connecting outdoor enclosures. This will also give them comfy furniture to lounge in and climbing areas for exercise. We are also working to improve the lives of our feral cat friends here at the Sanctuary.

Meet some of our Sanctuary Citizens
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
Liberty Acres is a Sanctuary. Yes we adopt out animals but there are special cases where an animal would not be available for adoption. Many times in other facilities those animals would be euthanized. At Liberty Acres those animals become permanent residents. They stay with the staff and volunteers until the end of their life. It may be due to medical or behavioral but all of the dogs at Liberty Acres get a chance at a happy life.
Elaine
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
Elaine is a dog who has a checkered past. This spunky Coonhound has been around the block and then some. Elaine is a good dog for those whom she chooses to befriend but their numbers are few. She spends her time with her furry BFF Winnie. She doesn't trust new people and therefore will get to spend her last years with those she loves here at the Sanctuary.
Winnie
What is a Sanctuary Citizen?
Winnie
Winnie was raised in a feral dog colony. She knows very little of human touch or interaction. She has come a long way here at the Sanctuary but still prefers her doggy friends over the two legged kind. She spends her days running through the woods and snuggling with her BFF Elaine. We love our quirky addition to the Sanctuary and are happy to ensure she is happy for as long as she will have us.
Rusty
Miss Maggie
Winnie
Oh our Rusty is a special fellow at just 4 years old. He does well at the Sanctuary with people he knows and a regular schedule. Rusty is a great boy in the right environment. Rusty has anxiety issues which causes some bad behaviors but he is happy at the Sanctuary. Rusty has been passed around a bit in his past but is most comfortable in the stability of the Sanctuary. Though he has issues meeting new people he is great with dogs of all sizes and personalities which makes him an awesome addition to the Sanctuary pack. We love our big red quirky guy.
Miss Maggie
Miss Maggie
Miss Maggie
Miss Maggie came to the Sanctuary after being at another shelter for 2 years. She was adopted out many times to different types of homes but was always returned for escaping. It seems Maggie was very selective of where she wanted to stay. When she arrived at the Sanctuary we always monitored her while she was outside. We were waiting for that time she would decide to run. After awhile we started to realize she wasn't even trying to get out. She loves the 6 acre fenced area which is where she loves to hunt things, play in the woods, go frogging in the mud hole, or digging in the dirt chasing moles. Though she has become more social here at the Sanctuary she freaks out and refuses to get in a car to leave with anyone. She has decided this is her home and it's where she never wants to leave. After having her for these last few years we couldn't imagine the Sanctuary without her.
Ross
Miss Maggie
Miss Maggie
Ross has been with the Sanctuary for several years. At first he was available for adoption. But as the years have gone by his health issues have increased. We teased and say he keeps falling apart and we keep putting him back together. He is the sweetest old man who spends his days taking naps and taking walks. Ross loves food and he loves his people. Now that he is totally blind he prefers to stick closer to the Sanctuary. Our handsome boy is now a Sanctuary citizen
Steve
Steve
Steve
Steve came to us from our local animal control shelter. He is one of our younger residents at only a few years. Steve is blind and has some behavioral issues due to a large tumor in his brain. He is happy here at the Sanctuary and loves running with the other dogs. Some sounds confuse him as does some smells. This impacts his behavior and can cause him to lash out. He has his favorite staff here at the Sanctuary but his contact with the public is limited. His veterinarian follows his issues and we know what to look for. As long as he has quality of life and is happy we will be happy to have him here at the Sanctuary.
Floyd
Steve
Steve
Floyd is an extra large Coonhound who is afraid of his own shadow. Floyd is a really sweet guy but he gets upset when meeting new people or any changes. Floyd is happy here at the Sanctuary and loves his housemates. He also loves playing in the woods.

Medical Donations for Hospice Dogs and Vet Care
As a Sanctuary we take in many animals that would be euthanized by other shelters due to an illness or injury. These animals come in with various medical problems that are costly to treat, however we know they are worth it. You can help us save these animals that would otherwise be forgotten.
Landscaping supplies

Medical Donations for Hospice Dogs and Vet Care
For all pets to be Spay/Neutered
Spaying helps prevent uterine infections and breast tumors, which are malignant or cancerous in about 50 percent of dogs and 90 percent of cats. Spaying your pet before her first heat offers the best protection from these diseases. Neutering your male companion prevents testicular cancer and some prostate problems. By spaying and neutering your animals you are also helping to prevent the overpopulation of companion animals. It just makes sense.

To those we have lost
"Gone from our lives but never our hearts"
To sit with those who truly need you, those that everyone else has forgotten. To grasp their paw and stroke their coat. To talk of silly stories with them as you hide the pain of loss. To calm your hands from shaking and keep breathing through the tears. To hold dear every memory of love as you let them go. Giving them the same dedication they gave to us, without question. Sleep well and run free our furred friends. Til we meet again at Rainbow Bridge.
