Animal Information

  • Do you have an unwanted pet or domestic animal, including farm animals? Do you have injured or abandoned wildlife in your yard?  Click here to visit the NRT's Animal Resources page with links and contact information for a wide variety of rescue and professional organizations related to animal welfare. 
  • NRT cannot accept unwanted domestic animals or injured wildlife at the Sheep Pasture facility. We do not accept roosters at any time for NRT flocks. For the safety of  animals and people, please do not drop off pets or other animals at Sheep Pasture or any organization before making arrangements so they are prepared to accept them. 

​A reminder from Mass Wildlife... if you find young animals-
If You Care, Leave It There!

​Ticks and mosquitoes are out!
If you spend time outdoors, including at Sheep Pasture, be sure to check yourself and your pets for ticks after any outdoor activities. You never know if you have an unwelcome hitchhiker! Mosquitoes have also been enjoying the abundance of rainfall this year, so they are active in all outdoor locations as well.
For more information, click this link to Ticks Are Out in Mass 
​or click here for information from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to learn about repelling insects. We encourage all visitors to use insect repellent and to take other precautions against ticks and mosquitoes. Don't forget to check your pets after being outdoors, too!
Please note that hunting or trapping of any kind is not allowed on any NRT property, at any time. For more information, ​please visit the NRT's FAQ page by clicking here.

Sheep Pasture Eggs
Eggs are collected regularly at Sheep Pasture, which is what gives them their great farm-fresh taste! If you want to see if eggs are available, please feel free to contact the NRT office at 508-238-6049.
If you have a special request for a larger order of eggs (over 5 dozen), please contact the NRT in advance to discuss availability and pick up options. Thank you for supporting Sheep Pasture!

​
Please be sure to use caution when visiting Sheep Pasture in all types of weather. Trails are not groomed, so there could be areas of standing water, mud, branches, etc. depending on recent conditions. We strongly suggest visitors bring water for both pets and people when visiting. Dressing in layers and wearing sturdy walking shoes are recommended. For more information, visit the Sheep Pasture FAQ page.
