We are a 501 c3 registered non-profit horse rescue organization. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome neglected and abused horses. Horses at our rescue are often surrendered by their owners, but we also attend local auctions to intercept horses from Kill Buyers-- people who purchase horses to sell to slaughterhouses across the border for human consumption.

We made it! Through the last round of farrier for this cycle. Two weeks off and we’ll start it all over again.

Thank you to VNA and Donna for your help today and always a big thanks to Oscar.

Two weeks off and we begin again the first Saturday in July.

Thankfully these 2 paddocks were empty. We have so many trees that are aging out and just coming down, uprooting from the ground. 🤯
Thankfully Larry came over to help me get them out of the way and the fences repaired.

We now just try to take them down before they decide where to fall. These 2 didn’t wait. 😡

Round 3 of farrier completed yesterday. All the horses did great. Kom and Daisy Mae got their first trim with us. We had to squeeze them in this cycle. Thankfully, No structural issues, just had been a while since they’d had been done. Next week, weather permitting, we’ll do our last round in this cycle.

Back in May of 2022, I received a call from Galloping Out about a horse that was in need.

Call the Colonel was in a lot that would ship, if not to slaughter, then on and on through auctions. He was injured. We said yes and now 3 years later, he has continued to be pasture sound.

He did his tour. He served his humans, 53 races and earning over $173,000 and yet he still was dumped. It just blows my mind.

He is happy and content. We won’t ask him for anything. He did a good job for others, now we will continue to do a good job for him. Just because, he deserves it, with no expectations.

We decided to see what Elsa could do with her new hooves. She did really good. First time ridden in we don’t know how long.

Thank you Suzanne for spending the time with her. ❤️

Back in 2021, I received a request to help a badly injured horse. I said yes and he was one of few we just had delivered straight to the hospital. He was all but naked, covered in a skin infection of some type, what coat he had was splotchy. His tail non existent looking like a rat tail and he had an impalement that we would soon learn ran along side his re**um about 6-8 inches in. His hooves along with everything else about him was just trash.

I spent months on end behind this horse healing the impalement, countless baths to cure the skin condition. Countless hours with the help of numerous volunteers, we did it.

He healed. He’s been through retraining, he was adopted and then returned for behavioral issues. Now…. he’s living his life to the laziest and that’s okay. 💕

🎉🎉 Happy Adoption Day to Lil’ Cutie. Today she left to her new home with an amazing human family, 2 mini donkey sisters and other farm animals. She is a lucky little pony. From feral to friendly, our team here made this happen. Thank you Tara for her adoption. I can’t wait to see this little nugget flourishing in your care. 🥰
