East San Diego County sanctuary desperate to get back on its feet

Double S Animal Rescue & Sanctuary, in Dulzura, CA, was devastated by the fires which reached the edges of the animal enclosures. Firefighters were able to put out the blazes and luckily no animals were lost. Dulzura is 25 miles ESE of San Diego (Route 94) aout 10 miles north of the U.S. Mexican border at Tecate.
Over 100 animals were evacuated prior, but another 115 couldn't be evacuated before the fires reached the property. All the neighboring properties were destroyed by the fires.

Animals include 13 horses, 50 cats, 50 chickens, 50 ducks, 2 emus, 2 burrows, several minis and goats, 11 pigs, and 2 dogs. The horses and other evacuated animals need to be brought back to the property soon from the temporary evacuation locations.
The director of the sanctuary has been caring for over 100 animals on the property devastated by the fires!

Immediate need for manpower to do clean-up around the property. There is extensive debris, soot damage, and burnt wood, wind and fire damage.

Volunteers are needed to rebuild, and to help care for these animals.
