Animals Under the Foundation’s Care
The Asper de Tyson Foundation and Sanctuary cares for animals large and small, be they domestic, exotic, or livestock. Some reside at the Sanctuary, others spend time at the clinic, and some have been placed with humans who need companionship and assistance as much as the creatures need human care. Once an animal has been rescued, rehabilitated, and in many cases trained and certified as an Emotional Support Animal, the goal is to find each one a long-term home that is usually beneficial to both animal and human. The Foundation continues to cover the medical needs and maintain certifications, while the human assumes responsibility for food, beds, toys, and such. Meet some of our Foundation beneficiaries shown below.

Max
