Nonviolence toward all living beings.
Connecting community through compassion.
Luvin Arms is a nonprofit animal sanctuary for abused and neglected farmed animals in Erie, Colorado. The sanctuary provides exceptional lifelong social, emotional, and cognitive care to rescued animals and empowers others to embrace a more compassionate and sustainable lifestyle. Residents were rescued from horrific situations including abuse and neglect cases, factory farms, religious rituals, slaughterhouse-bound trucks, bankrupt farms, and more.
Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary
Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary opened in August 2015 to provide refuge for farmed animals in need.
The founders, Shaleen and Shilpi Shah, began their journey with a horse named Jale, (pronounced Haalee) who came from a situation of neglect.
After rescuing Jale, they received a call about a pregnant mare at an auction, where they discovered a variety of suffering farm animals who also needed help. This inspired the Shahs to start a sanctuary for farmed animals.
Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary's rescued residents include cows, pigs, turkeys, chickens, horses, goats, sheep, and ducks.
animal lives have been directly saved since the sanctuary was founded.
rescued farmed animals currently call Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary home.
farmed animals’ lives have been saved through education and outreach.
