Meet Helen

She’s Too Old
UnsplashWhen she got old, Helen stopped producing milk and was deemed “unprofitable” but the dairy farmer didn’t want to let go of her.
She Stayed
UnsplashEven after the owner had sold his operations, he told the new owner to keep Helen, but after four years, he found her a new and more comfortable home where she would be given more care.
Her New Owners

She’s Adjusting
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsRian and Scooter had a hard time earning Helen’s trust at first, but with the right amount of care, love, patience, and gentleness, Helen got more and more comfortable with her new life with them.
A For Effort
UnsplashTo accommodate her lack of sight, Rian and Scooter customized Helen’s shed. They hung a wind chime by her doorway so she could know when she was close to home. They also placed a solar-powered fountain on her water trough so she could know where she could drink.
Overflowing Love
YouTube, GeoBeats AnimalsRian and Scooter make sure that Helen feels loved every single day. They take her for a walk every day and talk to her gently. They also brush, hug, massage, and kiss her so she knows she’s in a safe place.
