Beautiful and scenic sanctuary walk, the wolf dogs are so beautiful to see up close. Saw so many! Nice you can wonder around and spend as much time as you would like on the self guided walk
Staff were very friendly and the overall experience was great. I loved meeting the wolfdogs, goats, and chickens. It was such a surreal experience. I recommend dressing warm and bringing an umbrella just in case. If you’re in the area, you need to visit!
Great experience! It was nice cool weather so we got to see a lot of the wolves being active. We have two boys and they loved it.
Great experience, very knowledgeable staff. Lots of beautiful wolf dogs. Parking is easy and cute little gift shop.
Really good experience and worth the money.
The sanctuary is well spread out and maintained. We opted to do the self guided tour due to the timing but it would have been great to hear the information provided in a guided tour. That said, the many information boards around the paths were very informative.
It was lovely to see so many dogs being cared for in such a nice environment.
Self guided tour at a slow ish pace, reading about half the signs and stopping to admire all that we could see took a little over an hour.
Every part of our experience was amazing, down to the gift shop
It was such an amazing experience, to see these animals up close.... and then they howled!! We will definitely be back!
What an amazing experience. A wonderful place taking care of very special animals. We upgraded to the interactive tour and would also recommend that.
Very calming experience. Being able to hear their howl and see them roaming and in their element. The staff are all wonderful and love what they do. Definitely support the sanctuary and all the work they do to help these beautiful animals.
What a fun time. Being someone that is an animal advocate and in the veterinary field I always love tours that are animal related. The space provided for these rescue pups is amazing. Glad that someone is advocating for them. Learned about this place last minute, if ever able to go back will plan ahead of time to do the experience where you can interact with them more.
I would definitely recommend taking the time to visit the sanctuary! It is a well run facility and the animals are well cared for! The animals are all beautiful and it is a great learning experience. It is sad to here the origin story of why the wolf dogs exist but it is great that there is a place for their rescue!
It's an amazing experience, you are right up close to the wolves . The facilities and wolf habitat are excellent
Seeing the animals up close is amazing, would absolutely come back in the winter to see them playing on the snow!
I cannot put into words how much we loved this and the interactive tour. It was an amazing experience that I will carry with me my whole life.
It’s lovely to see the wolfdogs in a safe beautiful environment! They look happy and content within their fenced boundaries!
We did the walking tour. We got to see several wolfs in different habitats. It was easy to find via google maps!
This is an amazing sanctuary for these wolf dogs. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and learned so much! The drive out from Calgary was not busy, so it was a peaceful way to spend the morning. I would definitely recommend this to any animal lover!
The weather didn’t cooperate but we still had a great time. It was cold and miserable for us but the Wolfdogs loved it. They were playful and gave us a really cool howling session. We learned a lot and enjoyed watching the enrichment activity with the person they have bonded with. It was such a cool experience to watch him and the Wolf dogs interact with each other.
My husband is passionate about wolves. He loved it. Lady giving demonstrations was very friendly and informative.
Amazing place and lots of great ways to help out ! Mia was out tour guide and she was amazing and answered all the questions asked !
We were able to see lots of different wolfdogs. The environment was very calm and we could stay as long as we wanted. We enjoyed feeding the goats too.
Everyone was so friendly and it was great when the wolf dogs started howling. Also they had just gotten 6 wolf 🐺 pups in. We managed to see 2 of them, but I think the others were hiding.
