Thalia Haseotes
Thalia opened her luxury dog boarding and daycare facility soon after graduating college. During her 10 years in business, she became proficient in dog body language and behavior. She simultaneously started a non-profit foundation, Cold Noses Foundation, to provide project funding for small animal rescues all over the world. After starting a family, she desperately wanted a farm. She did not, however, want to teach her young son that buying animals simply to “own” them was the right thing to do. She wanted her farm to have a place for those deemed unwanted or broken. After rescuing their second tripawd dog and having a special needs cat, Thalia and her son knew it should be the goal of Cold Noses Sanctuary to rescue the special animals that are all too often thrown away by humans. She knows these animals are just as deserving of love and life as every other living being and by opening the sanctuary to the public, she hopes to inspire people in their own lives as well as they witness the reliance and love for life these animals possess.
