We got a call from the kb that he had 6 horses in the trailer we could buy if we wanted. We said “Yes.” He said he would call when he was going through Marysville, but he forgot and didn’t make the call until he was at the rescue. We would like to thank Jennifer […]

Friday was a farrier day. In between all the big horses that got trimmed, Macho Man stood quietly to get his feet trimmed too. He is such a perfect gentleman. Rocky’s feet are growing in nicely, they were so long, cracked and painful. When we got him we were fearful for quality of life, but […]

Some days start earlier than others. Today Tawnee was jolted out of bed with a phone call at 5:27 am. A kb was on the other end. He was waiting at the rescue with a load of horses if we wanted to buy them. Tawnee drug herself out of bed and hit the road. When […]

The Euthanasia clinic is this Sunday and we will need some donations to help the horses out. We have currently raised $1,070 out of our goal of $2,500. We only have $1,430 left to go, please help if you can. Click here. We only have a few more days. The horses that are waiting for this clinic […]

The euthanasia clinic is this Sunday. Thanks to your generosity we have raised $770, but we will need $1,730 to meet our goal of $2,500. We would love to be able to offer free end of life services to horses who’s owners are not financially able to provide a peaceful end. As always, all horses […]

Vinny was coming back to the rescue. He had been at the vet since he was gelded, but now he was feeling all better and was happy to hop into the trailer for the short ride to his temporary shelter at the rescue while he waits for his forever home. Now Vinny is looking for […]

Since Sunday we have been working at trying to find a solution for a horse that we had some contact with in the past. Back in January of 2007 this sweet boy had gotten lose and was wondering up and down the paved road NorCal was located on at the time. We managed to catch […]

Urgent Alert – 6 slaughterbound horses on their way! (The pictures in this blog are some other horses we have rescued this summer from the kb, not the horses on their way.) You’ve seen them on the blog before. Horses coming off of the killer buyer’s trailer. Sad. Lonely. Twisted legs and twisted hearts. Unloading […]

The last couple days have been spent entirely on catching up on phone calls, paperwork, and other needed office work. One program which we know must be revitalized is the FREE euthanasia clinic. We have been doing low-cost euthanasia clinics over the summer, and we still continued to take in horses to the clinics from […]

Despite losing Trooper on Thursday, Friday morning Ginger was doing just fine and buddied up with other horses. Thankfully Trooper was more attached to Ginger than Ginger was to Trooper. Ginger has some health issues, but seems to be enjoying her time in the barn. Our vet will be doing a quality of life evaluation […]
