 Another 911! A stock trailer full of starved, injured, wild/domestic horses heading to slaughter. WILL YOU HELP ME SAVE THEM?? We don't have the funds, the time or the space, but God put them in front of me. Please help me save them. I already had to postpone my surgery until December, but how do I walk away from a trailer load sitting in front of me. I am exhausted and overwhelmed and completely worn out. However, once again I will suck it up and do the work if y'all will help us save them. The injuries are horrific and a couple may have joint infections which could be deadly. They are both in excruciating pain and need our help asap! Molly the mule is in the hospital for a bad case of colic. The good news is hopefully I will get to pick her up tomorrow and she has a wonderful new family waiting for her. The truck is still broken, but God has always blessed this rescue, and I know we can save these horses! Thank you for all you do!

 Above - some of the latest group. The horses just keep coming. However, EVERY SINGLE HORSE in the photo would have shipped to slaughter if you had not helped save them. On top of the "normal" emergencies, Clifford, our rescue truck, is down. It is being "assessed" today. It broke down on the way to WA and is sitting in OR. I need funds to get that truck fixed asap to get these ponies home. We were warned it could be bad and that he might have "thrown a rod". There were 42 horses here a few days ago. Sadly, we had to end Uncle Fester's suffering. He was starved beyond measure, 25 plus years old and his blood work showed signs of cancer. He was miserable and ready for peace. We need your help now!! Standing in front of all the horses going through the chute, I said YES to way more than I should have. However, every single horse I said "no" to, shipped to slaughter. I am literally sick. I did not have anywhere close to enough funding to pull so many horses, but I am running on faith and trusting that everyone will come through so we can afford to get these horses vetted and safely home to NV until they are adopted. I need to buy more feed and milk pellets as well. It is a new and horrifying world for me. However, If I don't "pick and choose", they will ALL ship. So please say a prayer I can keep doing it and that folks will step up and help me save them.

QUICK UPDATE - Meeting with Catcher yesterday - Sorting today! LOTS & LOTS OF MILK BABIES!10/18/2021  Met with the catcher yesterday. There are LOTS of milk babies. IF we don't save them, they literally have no other chance. They will not survive on their own. Logically I should walk away. However, this is God's rescue and it runs on faith and your love and support. Do we save these tiny lives or let "nature handle it"? It is so heartbreaking. I am heading over there this afternoon to say "yes" or "no" as they are run through the shoot. It's up to you - do they live or die? I know everyone is tired of these emergencies, but the cold fact is that if I didn't ask y'all for help, every single one of the horses we have saved together would be dead. I will do the work but I need your love and support to make it happen! THANK YOU for all the wonderful donations of milk pellets, syringes, gloves etc. The babies are devouring the pellets and their milk. THANK YOU!

Catcher called again!!!! 24 HOURS! My heart is breaking as I write this. I am so full, but the only chance for any of these horses is us, our Chilly Pepper Family. My funds are low, but my Faith is high! IF there is a chance for me to pull any, I need your help. Even with the wonderful donations from some of our treasured donors, the vet bills still linger close to $5000+. (We just had 2 euthanasia and burials, and bunches of coggins). Blood work for Uncle fester was covered by our wonderful angels Jan and her crew. I HAVE to be able to support and care for ALL the horses. We need to raise funds for bail, vetting, transport, and to feed and care for them through winter, at the very least. I have to go pick tomorrow! This is an emergency situation. I truly hope we can at least pull some of them. I have to start transporting the un-adopted to NV in between my pre-op and the surgery. This is an urgent situation! THANK YOU for all the wonderful donations of milk pellets, syringes, gloves etc. The babies are devouring the pellets and their milk. THANK YOU!

YOU kept 11 horses off the slaughter truck, but we need funds to feed, vet & care for them!10/13/2021  We did it! We saved 11 lives. Once again I went on Faith, as we had enough to save them, but need more help to get them home safely. We had enough funds to purchase the horses, and now I need to pay for the hay that has been delivered. I have 27 horses with me at camp, not including the ones back in NV. I needed $1500 worth of hay delivered to "camp", and this was definitely not in the budget. Sadly, Jan had to be euthanized due to a horrific injury she has suffered with for a very long time. (I tried to treat her but knew immediately she needed emergency vet care.) She literally had a broken bone sticking out of her side. What a horrible feeling to try and remove something that was actually her broken bone. Doc pulled out numerous pieces of bones that were floating inside her. It was horrible and devastating. I thank God that you all made it possible to give her the help she so deserved. She is finally pain free and running free in Heaven. I just can't do this sometimes. It's too hard! As you know, I do all of the vetting I possibly can. I deal with mass amounts of pus, have to remove chunks of dead flesh etc, but when I try to remove what looks like a scab and find out it is literally her broken bone, it is not only sickening, heartbreaking and devastating, but it is way beyond my ability to care for properly. We have had horribly high vet bills due to the number of devastating injuries we have had. The vet bills are in the thousands, or close to at both places. I have another batch of Coggins scheduled for Friday, but need to pay off Harrah prior to that. Harrah Veterinary - $1364.58 is what is needed BEFORE Friday. If I don't get that paid, I most likely can't get the Coggins on the new batch and I won't be able to go home in time for my surgery. The total for Goldendale Veterinary stands at $3524.87, and that does NOT include the starved "Uncle Fester's" recent visit and specialized blood work. We are in desperate need of help for these vet bills. Having so many lives saved brings a serious need for help. Thank you for keeping them off the truck, but these horses are still in need of your help!

Update - I met with the catcher yesterday. Sadly, as you can see, folks are starting to dump their domestics. So now Uncle Fester is in the mix. I have until tomorrow night to fully commit to saving these precious souls. One of them has a horrible injury/infection and I need to pull her for sure. We have received some amazing donations, but I need to know I can provide the care and feed needed. I'm hoping to pull 10??, but have nowhere near enough funds to provide what will be needed. So I am hoping for a miracle between now n tomorrow night. So please let me know what we can do. Please help me keep saying YES, to saving these lives.

Catcher called AGAIN this morning! Who and HOW MANY can we save? Thank you to all of you who donated for the weanlings. Sadly, the Catcher called me this morning and wants me to go over and see if there are any others I can "save". This is the most painful and horrific part by far of doing rescue. To stand in front of a corral filled with precious lives and know you cannot save them all. To look into their beautiful eyes and know what fate awaits them if you don't choose them. I'm sure folks are extremely tired of all the 911's and the emergencies, but think about this. I have to live this every single day. I get no breaks, (except for my broken femur - arghh), I have to lay in bed every single night seeing their haunted eyes begging me for help, It's as if they know. Instead of hiding and turning away, they all face me, many never taking their eyes off mine. It is horrible. I am already physically ill just knowing I have to pick and choose. I seriously need to at least have $1500 per horse to save them. This time of year is the slowest for adoptions and I can be pretty sure that I will have to feed and care for most of them throughout the winter. That amount won't even begin to cover expenses after I bail them, get them coggins and have them hauled back to NV to feed this winter. I CANNOT only "choose color". I CAN'T! So I already have 5 "brown horses" that will most likely be traveling back to NV with me. The old stallion will no doubt live out the rest of his life at Chilly Pepper, (unless we get a miracle). It's so hard, because color adopts out the fastest, and you need to get them placed. However, no horse deserves to die because it isn't "fancy". So once again I am reaching out. I know I can't save them all, but I have to go and see who we can pull this afternoon. I was so happy because the weanlings were supposed to be delivered to me. (My trailer won't do the steep driveway). But apparently there is a chance to save more, and I can't in good conscience not try. So please let me know what we can do.

Catcher called this morning! Will you help save more? Meet Nicole - the injured filly from the last 15. I pulled 15 out of the last group, and that was pushing the envelope as I am way short of the funds needed to care for them long term or until they are adopted. Catcher wants an answer. These babies are big enough to ship. You decide who we save! Thank you for saving the last group! Below meet Phantom, a stallion who definitely earned the right to live out his life!
