We Were The VERY First!

Animal Assisted Therapy

Indeed, The Trixie Foundation was the very first entity in Kentucky to provide a place to live, paid compensation and an opportunity for people who were ‘down and out on their luck’ to ‘get their lives back on track’ by the utilization of our ‘Assisted Animal Therapy’ program.

Since the early 2000s, our progressive animal protection organization and ‘no-kill’ animal sanctuary has helped many people!

By offering a different approach to helping troubled individuals through the concept of healing one’s mind and mental attitude by working with and around dogs, cats, horses, goats, sheep plus a bull and a even a pig - our ‘hands on’ concept has done wonders for many. So cool!
