We work with at risk children, youth groups, adults and returning military using animal assisted healing and strengthening the human animal bond. Provide disaster assistance and deploy our animal rescue teams.

Testimonials

Thank you so much for saving our horses and animals from the black forest fire that took our home. We may have lost all of our possessions but you saved the most important family members!

Thank you for the food donations that made it to our area after the flood and for all you did during the Black Forest Fire as well. Your volunteers were so kind and helpful. What a wonderful group.

The dog food, treats, and toys really helped. We are glad we can keep our dog and the kids are so happy. I hope to find a job soon.

Mission

The Southern Colorado Animal Rescue DBA: Black Forest Animal Sanctuary (BFAS) is an all animal rescue and rehab group dedicated to helping those animals that are abused, neglected, or no longer wanted by their current owners. We believe that all animals have the same basic needs - food, water, shelter and love, and we believe that animals have amazing healing power for humans. We are all volunteers. We deploy our animal rescue team during disasters and with law enforcement requests. We have a network of foster homes and farms. www.bfasfarm.org
