Shortly after the shelter opened a truck pulled in with a bunch of hens that needed to be surrendered. We generally don’t get hens surrendered at the shelter, usually people are just looking for a place for their rooster to go.  We knew these girls would find a great home in no time.  We posted […]

We got a great update on Noble.  Her adoptive family writes: “Noble (now know as Shelbie) is inquisitive and relaxed and loves her mini adventures out on the trail.  I’ve also included pic’s of her in pasture in her ‘forever home.’   We can’t say enough about her.  We love her so much and are so thankful […]

First off, we would like to say we hope you all had an absolutely wonderful Thanksgiving. You probably want to grab your favorite beverage, sit back, and enjoy catching up on all the happenings at the shelter over the Thanksgiving holiday. Tuesday morning Dottie and Roxi were looking across the fence trying to figure out […]

Monday morning Jason headed out through the mountains to go pick up a couple horses that needed to be surrendered.  It was such a beautiful drive. Up in the mountains, though, it got cold and snowy.  The roads were clear though with no danger of slipping. Our long time blog readers may remember this horse. […]

Domino was a young stud when we rescued him, but he is now a gelding.  He is doing very well with his training. He is a very flashy boy with big black spots, and will make an awesome horse for someone. Braveheart, the Clydesdale cross, is doing much better.  When we rescued him from auction, […]

On Friday evening we received word from one of our lead rescuers that there were almost 20 horses at an auction that normally does not have many horses.  We asked you to help and your response was amazing! We rescued every horse we could on such short notice.  By the end of the auction we […]

One of our lead rescuers stopped by an auction this evening that normally does not have many horses, and they have almost 20 horses waiting to be sold to the highest bidders! These horses have a very grim future if we do not rescue them, many will end up in the slaughter pipeline. As far […]

The Dan Reed benefit concert was a  great success!  We can’t possibly thank the people who made it all happen enough, and the venue for providing such a great location for the concert.  To see more photos of the concert, click here.
