    An exposé of UK petting farms with Billy Thompson from The Retreat Animal Sanctuary and Jodie Barchha Lang

    From The Retreat website: "The Retreat was born in 1989 out of frustration at the way the human race treats animals. A rescue centre which would save tormented, abused, sick, injured and unwanted animals from certain death was therefore founded. ​ Some of our residents include: ex-race horses, ex-riding school ponies, injured live export sheep, cows saved from slaughter, ex-petting farm goats, injured birds, ferrets, Christmas turkeys, worn-out battery hens, disabled non-releasable wildlife, fish, small domestics, old or feral and FIV cats, and dogs who have failed behaviour tests in other dog homes.​ We offer specialised care for the animals who we take in. We are a not-for-profit organisation and all the Trustees and most of the volunteers being vegan. ​ All funds raised go to the welfare of the animals, being cared for. We also use the funds for The Retreat's facilities and where possible, animals are re-homed in permanent, loving homes. ​ The Retreat operates a genuine no-kill policy. ​ Our site accommodates our main rescue centre and, wildlife hospital to deal with most animal intakes and emergencies, together with our permanent horses, cows and sheep residents. ​​ We now have ample room to care for more animals, our intensive and equine re-homing centre, along with care-for-life wildlife and exotics.   The number of animals being cared for by The Retreat is over 1,000 at any one time."
