 Another emergency in the middle of "vetting the 46". I have been asked to give "GG Norma", a chance. At the very least she deserves the best feed, love and care until she crosses over. However, even though two vet's looked at her and didn't give her much hope, she is telling a different story. Her eyes are bright and she is alert and curious and says "PLEASE don't quit on me!" Will you help me give her the best love and care for whatever time she has left? We are due for a Miracle, and I'm hoping you will help me give her a chance. We have spent over $1400 on fuel so far but are all set up and ready to go. Hauling the squeeze from NV and moving horses is a large endeavor, but these amazing horses will have safe places to land because of it. PLEASE HELP "Great Grandma NORMA"! Thank you as always for all the love and support. I still need help to give our precious rescues the care and love they need.

 My heart is shattered as I write this. Although he fought valiantly and beat all the odds, our beautiful Norman is running free in heaven with his Mama. Sadly, Norman's lungs were permanently damaged and he let me know when it was time to go. He was having seizures and was so weak he couldn't always get up. His knees were buckling over and although his heart was pounding constantly and Doc said it sounded like he was trying to breathe through a straw, he was a happy, playful little boy. Doc and I both knew it was coming, but that doesn't lessen the devastation. She said he picked the right time. He was starting to suffer and that wasn't fair. That little man lived and loved so fully in his short little life. Thank you for giving him that precious time. So now IN HONOR OF NORMAN, I want to answer the 911 call I received yesterday. The horses shown are part of one of the worst neglect cases in Idaho. My rescue is not handling the rescue per say; due to the fact that we specialize in wild or unhandled horses, and our success in safely sorting, without injury, the 907 wild ones in South Dakota, I have been asked to come in as a consultant and help get the remaining 46 their Coggins so they can be picked up by their adopters. This is the 2nd and LAST attempt to get their blood pulled. - WITHOUT COGGINS AND HEALTH CERTS, THEY CANNOT BE ADOPTED and we know what that means. Their lives literally depend on us getting this done! We need approximately $5000 for this. We have to pull 2 trailers from NV, go to WA, then to Idaho, then back to WA. We are bringing the right equipment to insure this is doable. Fuel is going to be close to $1400? for the two rigs. I have to pay my crew and the folks back home watching the horses in NV. We are also going to be on this project for possibly 5 days, if not more. Thank you as always for all the love and support. I still need help to give our precious rescues the care and love they need.

Hi, Tessa is home safe. Thank you!! That was the easy part, "saving her from the slaughter truck" and transporting her to safety. However, now the real work and expenses begin. Tessa is in much worse shape than we thought. She needs to gain at least a few hundred pounds, will need vet care for her teeth and serious farrier care. Her feet are horrific and she barely has her front right hoof at all. Her coat is rough and she is sad and was extremely depressed. However, she and Honey Bandit seem to have fallen in love across the road. So now we are already seeing less depression. PTL! Hay prices are through the roof and it is imperative that I order more asap. It is about $7500 + to get a semi load of hay right now. We have a lot of special needs guys that love to eat. Norman is still with us, although not doing so well. He looks PERFECT, is gorgeous and growing like crazy. Sadly, his lungs are not keeping up and it is causing his little heart to beat at an extremely high rate. He had a very bad seizure when I was leading him into the stall. He needs a miracle. The next step is x-rays to see how much damage he has in his lungs. His knees are always wobbling, he is shaky from the lack of oxygen, HOWEVER, inside his oxygen deprived body is a FIERCE little stallion, full of life and love. Please say a prayer and if you'd like to help with his vet bill at Goldendale Veterinary Clinic, you can call 509-773-0369. Thank you as always for all the love and support. I still need help to give our precious rescues the care and love they need. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING PART OF OUR FAMILY AND FOR SAVING SO MANY LIVES!

Meet "Tessa" Tessa is a special mare. She is in pretty rough shape as you can see, and her poor hoofers are horrible. But if you look at that face, well there is something special.. God keeps putting her in front of me, so I know I am supposed to save her. She is scheduled to load on the trailer this afternoon, on that horrific trip to slaughter. So once again I have to decide if she lives or dies based on Faith. I truly believe that we are supposed to save her. Just look at those beautiful eyes. She is asking us to save her! Will you please help me save this beautiful old girl? Norman says THANK YOU SO MUCH! He celebrated his 3 week old birthday yesterday. He is still struggling with multiple issues but every day he survives gives him that much more strength. Please keep him in your prayers!
