The hurt and fear in their eyes is so hard to see. They are all crammed into a pen together or a tiny pen alone with no way to move, no food, and sometimes no water. They keep calling for their friends but they can’t hear over all of the noise. People are going here […]

We would like to say a big “Thank You” to Sandra! Sandra recently received an inheritance and has donated $5,000 to our upcoming auction rescue this Tuesday! Our goal is to save 20 horses from this month’s auction and thanks to Sandra’s gift we have a great start! Rescuing horses out of the slaughter pipeline at […]

Everyone meet Leo.  Leo is an amazing mini that we rescued in March at an auction. When we met him he was so skinny and scared of everything. His right eye was injured and he didn’t know what was happening.  After arriving at the shelter the vet said that Leo’s eye needed to be removed.  […]

The auction is tomorrow and this week has been very busy with the big adoption day on Sunday and filming Horse Rescue Heroes.  I haven’t been able to fundraise like I normally would, and now I’m worried about how many horses we can save.  Our adoption event was a huge success, leaving only 6 available […]

We need you! We are going to an Auction this Tuesday (8-6-19) and need your help to save horses! Rescuing horses out of the slaughter pipeline is heartbreaking work but we are their only chance. We can only rescue as many horses as funds allow.  We have raised enough funds to save 5 horses so […]
