Hello and Happy Spring to you!  The horse rescue is busy.  There are 2 horses that need immediate homes.  The first is an older gentleman.  He's a bay quarter horse.  I don't have a pic of him right now, but he needs your help.  Please spread the word that he needs a home asap.  He needs to be out of the home he's in now and into a pasture where he can move about and graze.  And have people brush and care for him.  He's not at my rescue, but a friend has asked me to re-home him.  Call me at 9...

It's been a while since I've posted an update.  That doesn't mean that I haven't been busy with the horses.  They are all doing good.  Some have blankets and some don't.  Some need blankets and some don't.  The rescue currently needs help with donations for hay, alfalfa, Elk Grove milling company stable mix pellets and C.O.B.  Next we need horse blankets.  If you have a waterproof blanket that you are not using, or you feel like purchasing one you can mail them to the mailing address on this ...

Hi everyone.  Sorry it's been such a long time since I've updated the website, or posted on here.  A lot has been happening.  I've been moving horses, cleaning up a new property.  Moving old wire fencing and junk off the property.  Continually making hay runs, to buy more hay.  The donations are not coming in quick enough to feed all the rescues.  Therefore, I'm currently in the process adopting some of the horses out to new forever homes.  
Maalie is available, a white Arabian mare, middle ag...

Great news!  I've updated my website and now donations can be accepted.  There was a technical difficulty, so those of you who may have tried to donate in the past and found it unsuccessful, sorry for the delay.  Now your donations will be used for feed and care of these wonderful animals.  

You can also donate by mailing supplies like dewormers ordered online, or vaccinations ordered online, you can always have supplies mailed to the mailing address for the rescue.

As you all know, horses need feed.  Right now I need to raise funds for feed.  So, if you have anything, $2, $5, or more, anything will help.  It all ads up in the end.  Easier for many people to give a little, than for only 1 person, me, to give everything.  So please help.  You can use the mailing address to mail checks or money orders, or you can contact me to find another way to donate.  You can also use paypal to donate money to the rescue, for the feed or for other reasons, such as vete...

The horse rescue is successfully moved to the new location.  Although the stress of moving is over, this is a temporary location.  This year we will be focusing on paperwork and grant information in order to secure a permanent location.  

Most of the horses loaded in the horse trailers without a problem.  The last 2 had problems loading.  But after much patience and diligence the hardest one went in.  I tied her rope to the inside of the trailer and every time she made a little slack on the ro...

Howdy Folks,
It's been awhile since I've updated.  The rescue is moving to a new location.  Not just the horses from the rescue, but horses that were not part of the rescue are also being forced to move off the property.  Which means that there are horses there that need homes asap.  If you are interested in adopting a horse please contact me.

If you want to volunteer to help move equipment, or help build new pastures and pens for the rescue at the new location, please let me know.  If you want...

Happy New Year Everyone.

The horses at the rescue are doing much better.  All looking good.  Me on the other hand, not so much.  I have a broken hand and it's much harder to do everything the horses need with a broken hand.  So, if you'ld like to come out to volunteer some help it would be greatly appreciated. 

There are feeding and watering chores to be done.
Brushing coats and cleaning hooves,
lunging in a round pen to exercise the horses and learning the join up process,
brushing out knotted m...

Today was a busy day, as usual.  The horses are all getting thick winter coats now.  Ready for the cold nights.  Only a couple of them don't grow enough of a winter coat.  So, donations for winter coats would be great.  We only need 1 large coat of 81inches.  The other coats at 72 inches would be fantastic. Is it possible to write my Christmas wish list for horses needs only?  My birthday present from family was $200.  What did I use it for you ask?  HORSE FEED.  Pellets gallore!  Now the hor...

The fog has been very thick at the rescue.  The ground is wet and won't dry.  Volunteers are needed to help clean stalls and paddocks.  Donations of rock and cement are needed to improve the ground is some of the stalls.  Volunteers are also needed to help with grooming the horses.  If you are interested please email me. 

Some of the horses need to put on more weight and need sponsors to help get them supplements for weight gaining.   Some of the horses pictures and descriptions have been add...

The horses are looking good.  All fed and cared for.  I'm working on detangling manes and tails, cleaning and trimming feet, and brushing thier new beginnings of winter coats.  All the horses are special to me.  They are each unique and different from each other.
The newest additons to the rescue are as follows.  We have a senior mare who needs a blanket and to gain more weight, a bay.  We have 2 well fed and healthy mares who are beautiful to look at and are sisters, and should stay together...
