Read Toulouse's Story ^{(In Memoriam)}

Toulouse was raised in a house like a dog, slept in the bed, watched television on the couch, and went for walks on a leash. She was happy and loved until the neighbors complained and because of zoning issues, the family was forced to bring Toulouse to The Gentle Barn California. Toulouse had a hard time adjusting to barnyard life at first. But she soon fell in love with all our other animals and we fell in love with her. Over the twelve years that we were blessed to have her, Toulouse became best friends with another sheep named Fawn, had her very own Sunday docent who she adored and received acupuncture, massage therapy, energy healing, music therapy, and the attention and adoration of all our guests. Toulouse passed away of old age at home in our arms as we thanked her for being our beautiful angel.
