Jeffrey’s Journey to Butterfly Valley
Jeffrey is a blind Katahdin/Dorper lamb whose joyful spirit has made him one of the most inspiring residents at Butterfly Valley Rescue & Sanctuary. He arrived at the sanctuary just hours after he was born, after his caregiver realized he was completely blind and unable to keep up with his mother and twin sibling. Knowing he would need specialized, around-the-clock care to have the best chance at life, they entrusted Jeffrey to the sanctuary.

Blind since birth
