Rescue: Life's Purpose
Welcome to Danclay Farms, a serene country estate that offers not only a stunning venue for your special day but also supports an incredible cause. Nestled in the heart of nature, Danclay Farms is home to the Halfway Home for Animals (HHA), a sanctuary dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating animals in need. Our property is home to over 50 animals, including 24 dogs, 15 cats, 14 cows, and 3 horses, with new arrivals joining us frequently.
We are proud to be the largest cow rescue in Alabama, and our impact extends far beyond that. Through our groundbreaking Distemper Don’t Kill program, we've successfully treated 189 dogs for distemper as of October 2024. Tragically, we lost only 16 dogs in this battle, but thanks to our unique treatment protocol, 173 dogs have been saved—a success rate that far surpasses traditional methods.
Distemper is a viral disorder that begins as a simple upper respiratory infection (URI) but quickly progresses, affecting the central nervous system and leading to seizures, paralysis, and often death. Traditional methods have left many dogs euthanized after diagnosis, but at Halfway Home for Animals, we’ve developed a patented treatment that has proven to be highly effective. Our method, which has been shared with veterinarians, rescue groups, and researchers worldwide, is revolutionizing the way distemper is treated and giving these dogs a fighting chance at life.
In addition to our direct treatment efforts, we help hundreds of dogs each year through phone consultations and guidance for rescue groups, veterinarians, and animal caretakers across the globe. Our expertise has made a significant difference in the lives of many animals, saving dogs from unnecessary euthanasia and helping them recover from this deadly disease.
When you choose Danclay Farms as your wedding venue, you're not just creating memories in a beautiful setting—you’re also supporting a noble cause. A portion of every booking goes directly to Halfway Home for Animals, helping us continue our vital work. Your celebration will help fund the care and treatment of animals in need, from dogs and cats to cows and horses, all of whom receive the love, shelter, and medical attention they deserve.
Celebrate your love at Danclay Farms and join us in making a difference in the lives of animals. With your support, we can continue to advocate for their fair treatment, ensure their well-being, and save even more lives.
