California is being hit hard with rain and wind, and it has absolutely devastated to our California shelter. The strong winds literally ripped the roofs off of many of the shelters. Now, horses are without a roof over their heads to protect them from the rain. It’s been extremely distressing for us as you know […]

Our 2016 Shelter statistics have been compiled from our 3 shelters. We helped a total of 387 animals in 2016.  354 equines, 5 goats, 19 fowl, 5 cats and 4 dogs.  That is a lot of animals that needed our help, and we couldn’t have helped them without you.  We had 139 adoptions.  We are […]

Thursday was going to be a busy day in Nashville, Kimberly and I started out on the road to go to the Department of Agriculture and the Governor’s Office. A proposal was made that tax dollars should go to protect the big lick industry. Citizens Against “Big Lick” Animal Cruelty did a petition and asked […]

We’ve been pretty busy at the California Shelter and wanted to get some much needed updates out to all of you.  Journey, Sunny and Diamond the 3 horses you helped us save from auction last month are still at the shelter for very different reasons. Journey was so scared for a few days following the […]

11 saved from the slaughter pipeline!Thank You!!!  I want to thank each and everyone who donated to help save horses from being shipped to slaughter last night. Your donations help save 11 precious lives from being shipped to slaughter! When I got to the auction I walked around to see how many horses were there and […]

I started preparing for the Saturday auction on Thursday by moving panels around and making room for the new auction rescues. I knew that I would be rescuing many lives and would need the pen space. Saturday morning I got the new trailer hooked up and put some halters and lead ropes in my truck. […]
