Let’s Go Places: A sanctuary for animals in need

Summer is a wonderful time to spend with your family, including the animals you call your pets. Animals come from a variety of places, some of those not so safe and comfortable. Unfortunately, some animals don’t start with the best of lives, and that’s why sanctuaries like Pasado’s Safe Haven are necessary.

Pasado’s has 85 acres of land in Sultan where they take in animals who have been victims of hoarding houses, law enforcement seizures, factory farms, and other cruel situations. Here you’ll find dogs, cats, birds, and farm animals who have found a better home than where they started. Pasado’s offers tours, classes, kids programs, volunteering and internship opportunities, and adoptions!

If you are craving some time with animals or you’re ready to take on the responsibility of welcoming an animal into your home, Pasado’s is the place to go. Getting there (and bringing an animal back with you) takes the right vehicle, and Toyota has the perfect one for the job: the 2021 Toyota Sienna XLE!

The Sienna XLE has space for the whole family, with seating for up to eight people. The One-Motion-Stow Split & Stow 3rdRow seat gives you the flexibility to keep seating for people or add trunk space for cargo or an animal in a kennel. Pile everyone and everything in with convenient available kick-activated dual power sliding doors and rear liftgate, both of which open by just waving your foot.

SofTex seats inside the Sienna are designed to withstand all of life’s challenges, from normal wear and tear to animal shedding to accidental spills. Four-zone automatic climate control keeps everyone at the right temperature. Available heated and ventilated front seats, plus heated rear captain’s chairs, add an extra element of comfort.

Seven USB ports allow you to connect your devices and stay charged up for all the pictures you want to take and entertainment you want to play. Speaking of entertainment, an available fold-down screen plays in 1080p to keep the backseat passengers engaged, no matter how long the trip is. A 9-inch touchscreen in the front allows the driver to access Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa for playing music, navigating, asking about the weather, and controlling smart-home devices.

Rounding out the technology features is an available suite of Connected Services, featuring Remote Connect to start the Sienna and lock/unlock the doors from a compatible smart device, Wi-Fi Connect to use the Sienna as a hotspot wherever you are, and Destination Assist to connect you to a 24/7 live agent for navigation tips.

Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 comes standard on every Sienna. This active safety package includes a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Automatic High Beams, Lane Tracing Assist, and Road Sign Assist. When maneuvering tight spaces, the available Front and Rear Parking Assist with Automatic Braking provides audio and visual notifications to help make parking easier.

So, what are you waiting for? Your next adventure awaits in the 2021 Toyota Sienna XLE, which starts at $39,750 MSRP.
