 MERRY CHRISTMAS from Chilly Pepper. We did it, we saved the 7 (2 minis and 5 ponies) from slaughter. This took awhile, but all came home safely. Great news is that two of them have already been adopted. This group was by far our most expensive, but we had to save them. THANK YOU EVERYONE who stepped up to make it happen. The "tiny's" would have been slaughtered for dog food or their hides. So they say THANK YOU! At this point we have 23 horses on the property. Four of the older ones have special feed requirements . One of the 20 year olds need his teeth floated as he looks like he is starving :( But he will get those fixed soon and he is on special feed and doing well so far. We need to get a couple stallions gelded so they can be adopted. There are 9 total up for adoption. Most of our permanent residents have either health issues or are special needs for a variety of other reasons. In the last month or so,10 of these amazing horses have found their loving, forever homes. It is always bittersweet to say goodbye, but is wonderful for the horses. We recently went and visited "Sky", one of our orphans. He came up for a kiss but took off with his two new friends. When he came running back up to say hi again he ignored me and ran straight to his new mom. Hmmmmmm I know that is how it should be but it did make me sad for about a second LOL. Because that is the perfect home, where he loves his new mom best. It's so heartwarming to see them thriving. We now have 3 ponies and one miniature available, as well as two gorgeous purebred Arabian colts and 3 mustangs (once Tomahawk and the mini stallion are gelded.) Our number of permanent residents has grown, so we will need to get the rest of the acreage fenced quickly and add a few more shelters. Everyone here has shelter, but we need to be ready for the coming year. 2017 has been crazy and together we have saved so many horses from slaughter. We cannot thank you enough and are so appreciative of your ongoing support. We could never have done this without you. We are looking at quite the feed bill. We had a wonderful grant for hay, but we need lots of groceries for the special needs and the elderly to get them through the winter. Thank you for sharing this wonderful journey with us and for making the Chilly Pepper family so amazing. LOOKING FOR THAT GIFT FOR THE IMPOSSIBLE TO SHOP FOR PERSON? Make a donation in their name.

 Hi all, Well I have wonderful news, and another question for y'all. The QUESTION IS THIS? Can we step up one more time this year and save the little man shown above, as well as 5 other miniatures/ponies? I have yet to see photos of all of them, but received an EMERGENCY call a few minutes ago. I do not know for sure if we have more than 48 hours?, but I know we have to "git 'er done" asap. The bail on these guys is $275 each, although the shipper will give us a slight discount if we save them all. The pony mare has a higher bail. So we are working on a package deal. It is simply not fair for a mare to be used as a baby factory and then thrown in the trash. Obviously these guys are too tiny to survive a long trailer ride, so if they are not saved they very likely will be shot in the head and used for dog food and for their hides. Again we will have expenses for the Coggins, Health Certs and transportation, etc. but I know WE CAN DO THIS. I need to put down a deposit ASAP! Although we were, "full up", we have two of the bigger babies leaving this weekend, and at least one or two of the mares heading out as soon as we get the blood work etc. This just happens to open up the perfect little pen for these precious little ones. I really thought that breaking my leg would slow things down. However, God had a good giggle again, as life is going on as far as rescuing the needy. It has definitely interfered with training, but this too shall pass and luckily we are still able to "git 'er done", thanks to y'all! Again, we need to get this done asap. Their bail is more than we usually spend per orphan, but they deserve a chance at life. There is a reason that God put them in front of us, and I'm hoping we can save them. Let's be THEIR CHRISTMAS MIRACLE. So I am hoping that if anyone has that "impossible to buy for person who already has everything and needs nothing", the one they have no idea what to get for Christmas; how aboutsaving a life in their name? We can send them a wonderful thank you and it is a meaningful gift without any strings attached. We are bringing back our "SUNSHINE & SMILES" program, where we have horses we can share with the community. In CA we worked with the Battered Women and Children's shelter and you would not believe how awesome it was to see those kids' faces light up. The horses are so healing and we are looking forward to focusing more on this program in NV. The awesome news is that y'all have saved 30 lives since that fateful day I broke my femur. 27 of them were orphans whose moms & families had already shipped, 2 were 20 year old geldings and 1 was a 17 year old mare. All three were ready to be loaded on the slaughter truck, so we picked them up. We want to say thank you to all the folks that helped by taking on some of these orphans. We only have 6 at this time and we are working hard to place them in great homes. So please, if you can find it in your heart for one more miracle this year, let's save these mini's and ponies. We can't do it without you. Thank you for all the love and support and all the lives you've saved! We could not do this without you!
