Be Part of a Legacy of Protection

At Golden State Great Pyrenees Rescue and Sanctuary, we believe livestock guardian dogs (LGDs) aren’t just animals — they’re a bridge between ranchers, wildlife, and the land itself. Every day, we rescue and rehabilitate Great Pyrenees and other LGDs, pairing them with meaningful work that prevents conflict, saves livestock, and protects ecosystems.

But none of this happens without visionaries like you.

Major donors and philanthropic partners fuel the future of our mission — building a sanctuary where every guardian dog, sheep, goat, or rescued farm animal can heal, grow, and thrive.

Your partnership creates more than rescue: it creates lasting impact.

What Your Leadership Gift Makes Possible

  • Sanctuary for the Forgotten: Provide lifelong care for dogs with trauma, special needs, or unadoptable challenges.

  • Training & Conservation Programs: Support hands-on training in real farm and ranch settings to reduce predator-livestock conflicts.

  • Urgent Veterinary Care: Fund surgeries, diagnostics, and lifesaving treatments for neglected working dogs.

  • Education & Outreach: Empower communities with humane, non-lethal methods of coexistence.

  • Livestock Rescue & Care: Give goats, sheep, and poultry who suffered neglect a safe, sustainable home.
