Orion’s Story  

Orion’s story began with heartbreak but turned into a tale of love and acceptance. Rescued from a local breeder who dismissed him as “ugly” and unfit for breeding, Orion was sadly destined for slaughter. As a baby, he endured the painful process of dehorning—a cruel practice where horns are sawed off and a hot iron is applied to prevent regrowth.

Despite his rough start, Orion has blossomed into a handsome and cherished member of our sanctuary. At nearly seven years old, this gentle Nubian goat—with his large stature and signature floppy ears—has captured our hearts. We are grateful every day to have provided him with the loving forever home he deserves.

Orion may not have been valued by his breeder, but here at Little Bear Sanctuary, we see him for the beautiful soul he truly is.
