My name is Lily and I’m going to tell you my story… Where do I begin with my story?  I’ve only been on this earth a short time so I guess I’ll just start at the beginning.  The day I was born I remember looking up at my mother.  She was so huge and beautiful.  […]

My name is Elvis and this is my story…  I’m just a young horse, I don’t know a lot about this world yet but in my short life I have experienced hunger, thirst and that nobody cared about me.  I’m just a yearling.  I don’t know how I ended up here, maybe it’s where all […]

The auction is just a few days away.  Horses at auctions are very stressed, some of them have been in the slaughter pipeline for some time already, being shipped from auction to auction, from yard to yard.  Every horse at auction has lost everything they knew, everything that made them feel safe.  The stress and […]

Winston was sent to the auction last month.  He was so skinny, sad and dejected looking, almost without hope.  Most people at the auction just walked by him, never paying attention to the “worthless” horse that would be soon on his way to a feedlot.  But when our rescuers met Winston, they saw something that […]
