Big Move for Grey Muzzle Manor Sanctuary

Grey Muzzle Manor Sanctuary moved to a 45-acre location at 1164 Blattadahl Road, in Mohrsville, which will enable the nonprofit organization to operate at full potential. Founded upon acceptance, non-judgement and presence, services include senior and special-needs dog rescue, hospice and adoption, as well as community outreach designed to help families and pets stay together, with the goal of preserving the human-animal bond and allowing families to not have to make a permanent decision for a temporary problem. Their SAFER (support for families enabling recovery) Program provides foster care for pets belonging to individuals who are seeking or undergoing inpatient mental health, drug or alcohol treatment, escaping domestic violence, temporary homelessness and more, with the goal of reunification.

Client-centered, mental health professional Marcy Tocker, MA, utilizes various evidence-based, experiential therapies including animal-assisted psychotherapy, Equine Assisted Growth and Learning Association’s model of equine-assisted psychotherapy, horticulture, expressive-art therapy, play therapy and trauma-based therapies for children and adults. These multifaceted, strength-based approaches assist individuals and families struggling with various trauma, impulse control disorders, such as attention-deficit, hyperactivity, anxiety, depression, stress, dysregulation and more.
