WE NEED YOUR HELP – We recently received very sad news from our largest donor: “We’ve run into some financial woes… Sorry about our inability to help out financially right now.” Among helping in many other smaller ways, they were committed to paying $1,500 towards the monthly lease of the shelter, which they can no longer do.

Wednesday morning was a chilly one, the snow level had dropped so low that it even snowed a little in the night.  By morning everything was a little icy. Prissy and Santiago were waiting in the stall, little did they know they were about to get in the trailer and go for a ride. Hoover […]

Tuesday had a very cold bite in the air and dark clouds overhead.  We were so happy that we have a big barn to keep the hay dry. We also have big run in barns so the horses can go in and stay dry if they want. Prissy and Santiago were brought up out of […]

We would like to thank everyone who stepped forward and made a donation to our Hay Fund.  We raised $2,570.50 towards our goal of $6,400 so far.  We still desperately need your help to pay for the hay!  To donate, click here. We did have to order it, the horses can’t go hungry, so the hay […]

Amigo, the Paso Fino, was being evaluated for adoptability.  Britney, our vet tech, decided he looked like a nice enough horse that she wanted to give him a ride too. He’s a very sweet, well trained boy and is looking for a home, maybe yours?  The vet says he needs a light rider due to […]

We would like to thank the Drudge Report for featuring the CBS undercover story about horses at auctions.  This should bring huge awareness to the issues of horses being sold for slaughter to many people who would otherwise not ever hear about it. We had 5 horses surrendered that needed to be picked up.  This […]

Back in December a news crew came out and filmed at the shelter, but we weren’t able to tell you what they were filming, but now we can.  It was part of an undercover investigation about horses going into the slaughter pipeline.  If you missed that blog you can read it by clicking here.     […]

We have a new Urgent Need of a load of hay.  As you know, we rescued and care for a lot of horses each month, and all those horses eat a lot of hay.  At the last auction rescue we far exceeded the expected cost of purchasing the horses, leaving little money for feed and care.  It’s […]

Back in October of 2011 we rescued this poor little colt, Gumby, along with a bunch of other horses from another “rescue” which has since been criminally charged for animal neglect.  You can read all about that by clicking here. Now he is a big beautiful almost 2 year old gelding.  He does have some back […]
