When Domino arrived at Luvin Arms, he was fearful of humans. He was sad and always very wary of people. Now he has opened up his personal space and allowed us in.

Cow Domino

Domino was rescued alongside Leroy, & Milo. These three young boys were being kept malnourished alongside over 1,000 other farmed animals in a crowded, unsanitary farm outside of Boston.

When Domino arrived at Luvin Arms, he was fearful of humans. He was sad and always very wary of people.

Cassie Baruick, our Care Team manager, developed a bond with Domino over the course of several months during clicker play.

Domino has been able to overcome his fear of people, he can walk through the chute onto the scale and be weighed, and receive his vaccinations without fear. Domino has opened up his personal space and allowed us in.

That’s such an incredible feat!

We are humbled by witnessing the incredible forgiveness of his past abuse, and his acceptance of our love and compassion. We never gave up, and neither did he. There is Hope where compassion breathes.
