Meet Shyanne, Animal Ambassador

Last Updated 3/24/2026Posted in Homepage, Ambassadors


Shyanne was originally left behind by her original owner when they moved. She and her mom were lovingly taken in by a new family when they bought the house. When her mom died, they knew Shyanne needed new companions to be around and that is when we came into the picture!

Shyanne came in just a couple days apart from Tote, another new arrival and  they quickly bonded. Shyanne is on the shyer side, whereas Tote is the total opposite! They are often found grazing alongside one another or basking in the sun on the platform that they have claimed as their own.

So the next time you come to the Ranch for a tour, birthday party or field trip, be sure to keep an eye out for these two and save a handful of feed for them!
