Fred

Fred has been nothing but an absolute blessing!  Rain or shine, hot or cold he's extremely dependable and is here several times a week to give some extra attention to our goofy pooches and help pick up the little presents they leave in the yard.  Fred has been helping the ranch for a number of months now and has been an excellent addition to our volunteer group!  Even on those mornings when it's only 20 degrees you'll still find him here playing with the dogs and talking to them.  In addition to the work he has done, Fred has also provided the ranch with a number of much needed donations.  

Thank you Fred for all of your hard work and your caring soul- we appreciate everything you have done and if the dogs could all raise their little paws I'm sure they would agree! 

Tim and El Paquin, Arizona (with Peppy)

Tim has been a longtime supporter of the ranch - he and his wife are even sponsoring Peppy! When Tim and El are not out on their Harley, or doing some massive fundraising for Circle L, they are at the ranch visiting Peppy and helping out with ranch duties.

It's volunteers like Tim and El that help Circle L become the wonderful organization it is!

Born in Quebec moved to Montreal then Bowmanville
 
My husband (Keith) and I have lived here now for over 15 yrs.  We have 4 kids and 3 grandkids.
 
My love for animals has always been there. Can't remember a time that I didn't have a pet in our home. Right now, we have 7 cats living with us. ( Almost better than kids, don't talk back, lol)
 
I got involved with rescuing animals at an early age, 18 yrs old. I hand raised 3 kittens, 3 days old. Mother was Feral, couldn't catch her and the place that the mother cat decided on for her babies was being torn down. Later, I did fostering for the Durham Region Humane Society here in Oshawa, Canada. I fostered over 50 in an 18 month span. 

Most of our cats are rescue's of some kind.  The last one, Rufus, was living outside our home for a couple of months.  Couldn't get close to him until, one day, he decided it was time.  Fast trip to the vet, lovely cat.  To me, there is nothing more rewarding than helping an animal in need.  They can't do it for themselves.
 
I couldn't ever see myself without a pet.  They are so innocent and need our help.  What Circle L Ranch is doing for these animals is nothing short of amazing.
