We received an urgent alert that a ‘rescue’ has closed down, and that 9 horses are in desperate need of help.  We do not have a lot of information on them other than they have no other options other than staying and starving to death.  The person who has them is pleading with us to help. The horses are clearly not […]

We would like to thank each and every person who donated for the urgent need, the 9 horses that need to be rescued.  With your donation we know the remaining $551 will be donated, so plans are in place to go rescue these horses Thursday the 6th.  Our staff are gearing up for this big […]

First thing Monday morning the rescue rig was hooked together for a very long and busy day. Muffy the rooster was running around letting everyone know that there was some serious action at the shelter.  He refuses to stay in the chicken coop, but he seems to be doing just fine running around the shelter […]

Many of you remember Spero, this poor starved boy who came to us August 8th. Since Phoenix was rescued we had not seen such an emaciated horse. His sad pleading face will forever be etched into the minds of those who saw him.  He had sores all over his body, he had a body score […]

Our Free Euthanasia Clinic is currently at $445 and is happening Wednesday, the 21st.  Please help us help the senior horses pass on gently, with love and dignity.  They cannot make it through another long winter and their owners are counting on us for help.  Our goal is to raise $2,500 for this clinic.  To […]

It’s September 1st and we have an announcement to make.  As technology evolves and moves on, organizations must keep pace to stay at the cutting edge.  With Horse Plus growing so much and having so many different people involved, it is getting more and more difficulty, virtually impossible, to keep the blog coming on a daily basis. […]

April is in adoption pending!  Her potential adopters have been coming out to make sure they are a perfect match.  Hopefully she will be in her new home soon. Reba, a lovely mule, was surrendered.  She is an 8 year old molly who is possibly trained to ride.  She ties, loads and stands for the […]

Septembers Free Euthanasia Clinic is scheduled for Wednesday, September 21st from 10:00 – 4:00 at Look Ahead Vet Office.  The last clinic had 6 horses come on the day of the clinic, with more people calling and bringing horses throughout the month.  They know that the winter months are coming, and their elderly friend will […]

Thursday Tia had to be taken to the vet with a bacterial infection.  She has to be on anti-biotics.  Hopefully she clears up soon and can be available for adoption once again. Spero is doing well and is visibly starting to gain weight.  You can see little nooks and crannies starting to fill out.  It […]

Thursday found the rescue rig on the road.  Two horses that had been adopted into a very loving home a couple years ago had to come back to the shelter. Their adoptive family could no longer keep them due to health problems.  It’s so sad when people cannot take care of their beloved friends because […]
