A horse sanctuary was squeezed out of its Douglas County location by housing and commercial developments. Our Denver7 Gives came together and donated thousands to help Happy Dog Ranch move 40 horses.
We first told you about Happy Dog’s upcoming move about a month ago. The ranch is now flanked on the south end by a four-lane road and a housing development that comes right up to the property.
“And what that means for the horses is that it’s no longer safe in the pastures,” said Bernadette Spillane, owner and founder of Happy Dog Ranch. “They have lights, there’s construction, there’s dust. They just seem more stressed.” Like so many other places on the Front Range, this once rural oasis is quickly being gobbled up by growth.Forced to find new home: Happy Dog Ranch moves after 17 years due to development Russell Haythorn 6:04 PM, Aug 24, 2023 Since the story aired on Denver7, viewers have opened their hearts and their wallets to help this nonprofit blaze a new trail.
“It’s really coming along,” Spillane said of the move. “We’re hoping to move October 16th if the weather looks good. The outpouring of compassion and love has just been amazing.”“Thank you so much,” Bernadette said. “Wow. This will be so helpful. There’s still so much work to do, and of course, everything costs money. This is awesome. Thank you so much.”Denver7 features the stories of people who need help and now you can help them with a cash donation through Denver7 Gives.
