We run a low cost gelding program
There are two colts who desperately need help getting a brighter future. Their owner is able to care for them, but does not have the funds to have them gelded. A colt left ungelded leads a sad, solitary life (at best) or breeds, making many unwanted horses, ultimately ending up in the slaughter pipeline. You […]

Donkeys
There are some creatures in this world that just make us smile, and the donkey is one of them. The big ears, the lovable personality and the hilarious bray. There is nothing cuter than an adorable little baby donkey. Such a precious little life. Sadly, in Texas, they have decided that baby (and adult) […]
