As we are planning on a big evaluation day this Sunday, Jason and Tawnee made a trip out to the foster home in Gridley to pick up 9 horses. All 9 loaded without incident and made the short trip back to the rescue just fine. There are still about 13 horses house at Gridley. Here is an Appy unloading from the […]

Today Jason beat the heat and unloaded the stock trailer that was still full of hay before the sun got to hot. That’s another 72 bales of heavy hay. There’s still about 150 bales waiting to be picked up. It is such wonderful hay, we are very fortunate to have been able to stockpile more […]

The day started off early with Otto’s adopters coming to pick him up for the long journey back home. With a little gentle persuasion he hopped right in and started munching the food down. Around noon Jason and Tawnee loaded up Cephei to take him to his new home. He was real happy to get in the trailer, he actually seems […]

Today Jason spent the entire day, from 7:30 am until 11:00 pm hauling hay. It wasn’t supposed to take that long, but it did. Jason arrived at the rental place to pick up the trailer at 8:00 am sharp when they opened. Much to his dismay, the trailer had a flat tire, which they had […]

Randy the pony headed out to the vet early this morning with Jason at the wheel of the truck. Randy had blood work done, along with a fecal examination, and overall he is actually healthy. He is a touch anemic, and he has some tapeworms, but overall he is in good shape, with no signs […]

Today was a super busy Sunday and there were 2 adoptions and 2 adoption holds! Here is a sweet little mare that doesn’t have a name yet, but she was adopted today to a previously approved adopter. She was rescued from the last auction and she is a little jewel. She was adopted by one […]

Tawnee headed off down to the auction early this morning. She ended up rescuing 5 more equines from the auction that had been left or were no sale, bringing our total rescue to 39 this month, and there were 78 total auctioned off. We saved 1/2 of the total auction this month! Now comes the hard […]

Today started off with volunteer Teresa coming out and helping for a few hours. All of the auction horses that are at the rescue were moved to a larger pen and each one was wormed. Tawnee has a sneaky way that has been developed over the years from worming so many horses that may not like to […]

Randy the pony is doing good at his foster home. They sent a picture update on him, it’s hard to see how skinny he really is, pictures seem to always pack weight on horses, but he is terribly skinny. We will be consulting with our vet for his best possible future and care. Tawnee and Claire […]

Another update on the little starved emaciated pony. He has been moved to a temporary foster home, and we are giving him some rest before moving him to our rescue for evaluation. He should be here by the beginning of next week. This morning Tawnee headed out for the 120 mile round trip to pick up a bunch of […]
