The next auction is just this weekend and we need your help to save lives!  As you know, every month we rescue as many horses as we can from auctions in both California and Nevada, saving them from slipping into the slaughter pipeline.  Auctions are one of the main ways horses get into the slaughter pipeline, where […]

Wednesday we had some visitors come to see the horses.  They are previous adopters, and they had a hold on Harley Boy.  They also had to say “Hi” to Candi, the Belgium mare at the shelter. They really fell in love with Harley Boy, and were so excited to add him to their family, where […]

The Extreme Rescue Makeover Grand Finale will be here before you know it.  The Finale is June 22nd near Chico, and we hope that many of you will be able to attend.  Your presence will be a huge support to the trainers who have spent their time and energy helping these horses have a bright […]

Sunday Kirsty was busy evaluating horses.  Chance was first on the list.  He is such a huge horse her saddle looked pretty tiny on his back.  He is 17.2 hands tall! He also needed to get his hooves done as they were quite long. He did really good under saddle and is just a huge […]

This blog is to catch you up over the last week. On Monday the 24th Jason was on the road to pick up horses.  His GPS took him down a very beautiful road, that had a locked gate at the end.  So he turned around and drove farther up the main road and down the […]

We would like to thank everyone who donated to the auction fund.  At the previous auction we went to this month we rescued 6 horses.   Tuesday morning the truck and big rescue rig were headed out to the auction in Nevada. Mile after mile slipped under the wheels, bringing them closer to the state […]

Thanks to each and every one of you who donated, we reached our goal for the auction rescue!  We can’t possibly thank you enough for your generous donations, and we can’t wait to rescue as many horses as we can from the slaughter pipeline! Volunteer Teresa was out to help out.  It was such a […]

We have already rescued 6 horses at auction this month, and we need your help to save even more! As you know, each month we raise $6,000 for the rescue, vet care, rehabilitation, training and care of slaughter pipeline horses at auctions. This month we are hoping to rescue at new auctions, but we need […]

Friday we got the call that the dairy had 9 more baby goats.  We are trying to rescue all the babies that dairy rejects so they don’t take them to auction.  Shari was made the long drive to get these little guys to safety. At the shelter they all got their ID tags and intake […]
