Sweety and Ranger’s Rescue Story. In January of 2006 we were contacted by a supporter that there was serious horse abuse happening near Ukiah, CA. The horses were a 24 year old gelding, named Ranger with a body score of 1-, and a 10 year old Paint mare named Sweety with a body score of […]

We need your help. The KB called up today and asked if we would be interested in more horses for $100 each. He is going to a different feedlot, one where the horses are mainly shipped to Canada. They should be in better condition then the Mexico bound horses, but we never know for sure […]

This morning Tawnee was on the way to the vet with the two little mini stallions and Rose, who wasn’t doing well on her feet and was experiencing a lot of pain. Soon Rose was settled into a stall with lots of shavings to make her as comfortable as possible. She will stay at the […]

This morning the little stallions were looking out at their new world. They will be staying at the old facility until they can be taken to the vet for evaluation and gelding operations. The poor little white guy is so uncomfortable with his hooves. He has a vet appointment on Wednesday. At the rescue, Dually […]

This morning Jason and Tawnee headed up the Feather River Canyon to help some horses in need of a new home. It is such a beautiful drive this time of year, beautiful green trees, rugged rocks and a lovely river. If you have never driven Hwy 70 from Oroville to Quincy, you have missed out […]

We would like to give a huge “Thank You!” to the contractor, Mark, who has volunteered time and material to get the office looking absolutely stunning. His enthusiasm is just amazing and really inspiring to all those at the rescue. There is so much to do! Mark has been getting materials donated. So far he […]

We need your help! We received an email about a very poor donkey with a ruthless owner. It reminded us of Spring Bo’s owner so much! Wait until they get bad enough, then shoot them. Humane euthanasia by chemical injection is the kindest possible option for an animal that is in this condition. So many […]

This didn’t make it into Monday’s blog because we hadn’t gotten the pictures off the camera yet, but Strawberry got adopted! For many of our long-time followers, they may remember Sebastian, a beautiful Palomino gelding, from a long time ago. They had adopted him and loved him for many years, but sadly last year they […]

This morning Olive’s mommy came out to spend more time with her. Olive almost fell asleep she was so relaxed with her. It was really touching. Tawnee had a vet appointment for Pewee (the colt with the bad leg) and Bella (the blind mare) to be checked out. Tawnee had been scratching Pewee last night […]

Today Tawnee cried. It takes a lot to make Tawnee cry on the job, but by the end of the day, she had an emotional breakdown… But first off, happy Fathers Day! If it was not for our Dads out there who get the hay, unload the hay, build the fence for our first horse […]
