The last one always surprises people! Here are 5 signs we look for to make sure the rescued cows at The Gentle Barn are happy, healthy & fulfilled. There are many ways to tell a cow is happy, from chewing their cud and meditating to rolling over like dogs to ask for belly rubs. Likewise, it's clear when they're unhappy, scared, or uncomfortable—they look pained, and won't lie down to rest or socialize.
At The Gentle Barn, we see these shifts happen when we rescue cows. They go from looking terrified to feeling safe and secure, knowing they'll never be hurt and always be loved in our sanctuary.

The Gentle Barn is a non profit animal sanctuary with locations in Los Angeles, CA, Nashville, TN, and St. Louis, MO. We rescue neglected and traumatized animals from all circumstances, we rehabilitate them, and when they're ready we partner with them to heal people with the same stories of trauma. We rescue cows, horses, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys, peacocks, emus, llamas, donkeys, and more. Our mission is to show people the love and magic of animals by sharing their stories and how living a gentle life can help heal animals, humans, and the world.
