SLAUGHTER TRUCKS ARE ROLLING - AN EMERGENCY CALL TO SAVE 6 (POSSIBLY MORE) PRECIOUS LIVES!3/20/2020  Hi everyone. 1st and foremost, I hope and pray everyone is hanging in there during this time of crisis. SADLY however, the slaughter trucks CONTINUE TO ROLL! I received a call to see if we can save these 6 beautiful souls from slaughter. We are their only chance as they will not be heading to an auction, simply loaded on a trailer and shipped to their death. We are working with a local rescue who will be working along side us to help us try and get these kids placed locally. I have a potential adoption for the shaggy little buckskin and for the 2 year old mare. However, none of them are safe as of right now and they need your help. We will save as many of them as we can, based on our ability to "save them", get them vetted, transported and have appropriate funds to make sure they are fed and cared for properly. PLEASE DO NOT MAKE ME STAND IN FRONT OF THEM AND PICK AND CHOOSE WHO GETS TO LIVE! That is the worst feeling. I truly understand so many folks have lost their income and things seem really sketchy right now. Please if you are in that situation just say a big prayer for these kids. When God puts these kids in front of us I know He expects us to try and save them. We can only do our best, but it is so not fair for them to be slaughtered because I didn't try. SO, IF you are in a position to donate or possibly adopt a yearling thoroughbred colt, please do so. Please share this far and wide as it will be a true miracle if we can pull this off under the circumstances. We need BAIL, TEMPORARY LODGING, HAULING AND VETTING FUNDS, not to mention feed etc. If by some miracle we can save them and there is any money left over, it will go for milk money, hay, feed, vetting etc. for the kids here. Bruiser is really enjoying his milk and says THANK YOU for saving him. PEPE's 1st surgery went well, and after his checkup the vet feels she has a chance to "finish" closing the rest of the tear in his upper throat. So one more surgery and (God Willing) he will be a happy little camper. You have saved so many lives. Let's keep on making a difference and saving lives! Hugs & Love Palomino THE MOST RECENT SOULS YOU HAVE SAVED! EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM SAY THANK YOU!!!!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

IT'S DEFINITELY GO TIME! WILL YOU HELP THIS TINY ORPHAN?? Meet Bruiser. He is maybe a couple days old?. He was found lost and alone in the mountains. His condition is fragile at best. He was severely dehydrated and has obviously not had the food he needed from his Mama. Only time will tell why he was left behind to die. We are heading straight to the vet. We also had to pick up 2 gorgeous, yearling stud colts. They are also in need of vetting, ie "brain surgery" aka gelding. Bruiser is going to need 24/7 care along with vetting to give him a chance. Hopefully he n Lil Pepe will end up keeping each other company. Please help us give these kids the best care possible. It is only going to get busier from here on out. Thank you Kari Robie n family for providing critical care until we could get him. WE NEED YOUR HELP NOW!! LIL PEPE surgery update. He survived surgery. The Doc was only able to close part of the defect, but he has a higher chance of survival THANK YOU FOR GIVING HIM THIS CHANCE! You have saved so many lives.

A TEENY TEENY TINY LITTLE BOY NEEDS YOUR HELP. HIS ONLY CHANCE IS SURGERY FOR A CLEFT PALATE...3/9/2020  "I received a 911 call to see if we could help this tiny little baby. He is ONLY 2 DAYS OLD, & he needs life saving surgery. He was at the vet today and Doc said his only chance is to perform the surgery he needs. He has a cleft palate, and the damage is severe. Without this surgery his only option is EUTHANSIA. Please help us give him a chance. He is a fighter and is strong but cannot survive with his current condition. (This falls under our pesky "& More" in our name, CHILLY PEPPER - MIRACLE MUSTANG, EQUINE RESCUE & MORE! It's time for "MORE". Let's at least give him a chance. We also need to keep getting ready for the new babies. I was warned to "be ready", as it sounds like we are going to be slammed this spring with babies as their Mamas and families are shipped to slaughter. PLEASE HELP US GIVE "LIL PEPE" THE CHANCE HE DESERVES! & get ready for the new babies. LUCY & WAYNOKA (Sweet) are both safe. THANK YOU FOR SAVING THE "OLD GALS". Now let's save this baby and make sure we are ready for the foals! You have saved so many lives. Let's keep on making a difference and saving lives!

THANK YOU for being part of our Chilly Pepper Family and for making it possible to save so many lives. We have yet another URGENT need. Texas Triumph needs urgent care for his hoof. He has a huge split in his front hoof, and it will be life threatening if not treated asap. When we were at the vet in Reno getting him tubed, they looked at his hoof and thought it was pretty much healed. (At that point his "choke situation" was the focus). However, once we were able to get the farrier working on him, it is clear that the split goes all the way through. It is really a horrible injury and he has a scar running all the way up into his leg. We need to get immediate care for him, which will involve special shoeing, sedation and maybe even further treatment. With about 2000 pounds standing on that hoof, if it splits more he will be done. He has some ongoing issues. We were told he had string halt, and he does have issues with his legs. They are random, but when the Farrier was working on his feet he had a lot of trouble in his hind legs while standing. He still cannot eat regular feed, but is actually thriving in spite of his various issues. He is loving life and we need your help to keep him healthy. Sadly, we are running on fumes. We are still reeling from the over $10,000 in vet bills the last couple months, and that was before we got the 3 new ones. Even with the wonderful donations directly to the vets, the budget was severely devastated. As we continue trying to prep for babies, we simply need your help to get this done. Texas Triumph has to get this foot repaired or we will lose him. Our fancy "Lucy" lol, has arrived and is a happy camper. She is bossy and determined to be the lead mare, but has obviously had a horrible life. Thank you for saving her. Please help us save Texas Triumph's hoof. He is a precious part of our Sunshine & Smiles program. He is just a baby and deserves the best life he can have. The Vets all told us we could walk out and he could have aspirated into pneumonia or be choked out. But I want to give him every chance and treasure every day he has. We also need to take in Big Matt and have his hoofers done under sedation. Due to the issues with his back and hocks, it is extremely painful for him to stand on 3 legs. Please help if you can. It seems like we get the crazy cases, but that is what rescue is about. Helping the ones who cannot help themselves and the ones that nobody else will take on. You have saved so many lives.

In the middle of prepping for Baby Season, we have a DROP EVERYTHING RIGHT NOW!! - EMERGENCY SAVE!!!! This beautiful, 20 + year old mare had 48 hours to be saved. This was a mare I had to commit to based solely on Faith!! My Faith that y'all would not let this mare down and help us get her home and get her the TLC she deserves. This poor girl was a PMU mare. For those of you who don't know what that is, she lived her life in a stall so narrow she could not turn around. For 20 hours a day, five months out of the year. She was bred continuously so her urine could be collected to make the hormone replacement PREMARIN. We just received word that we CAN SAVE HER & bring her home to Chilly Pepper. We want to thank the rescue Central Oregon Equine for making sure she was safe until someone could be found to take her. We also want to send out a big thank you to WHOA, who will be receiving her tomorrow and getting the vetting done so we can bring her home. As usual, we need to get her vetted, transported and home. We need to pay for her transport to WHOA tomorrow, and then get her home. She needs some groceries and to spend the rest of her life loved beyond measure. PLEASE HELP US BRING HER HOME AND SAVE HER LIFE!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

ORPHAN 911 - IT'S BABY TIME - EMERGENCY SUPPLIES NEEDED NOW - BABIES DROPPING - IT'S GO TIME2/16/2020   It's GO TIME AGAIN. 911 for baby supplies. We are already getting calls to be on stand by for the orphaned and new born foals. As we never had a break all year, our baby supplies have dwindled and these are the lifesaving supplies we need. Thankfully Chilly Pepper has folks stepping up to help with the care of these orphaned babies, as well as pregnant mares, stallions and any other horses we can save from slaughter. CHILLY PEPPER is still incurring all expenses for our babies and horses. OUR current emergency is being prepared for that phone call. These babies need IMMEDIATE care to have a chance at surviving in this harsh world. Many of these babies will come from Mares that have been shipped to slaughter. Others will be orphaned by deaths caused by vehicles and then there are the ones who are injured or too ill to survive alone. Thankfully we have 3 other locations where folks will step up and help us do the actual care for these babies. TEAMWORK IS THE REASON FOR THE DREAM WORKING! (The MOST BABIES we have gotten at once was (70 BABIES IN 2 DAYS). This was from ONE trapper in 2 days.) So we have to be ready at all locations. WE NEED TO ORDER SUPPLIES ASAP. Foal Lac Powder - 40# bags - $150 32 Bags (just a start) $ 4,800 ▪ (This would supply milk needed for 16 babies for one month). It is a drop in the bucket, but a good start.) This is only for the milk. Probios 4 - @ $47.99 (Valley Vet) Estimate w/o shipping $ 200 Foal Response 16 @ $12.49 Estimate w/o shipping $ 200 Equine Coli Endotox 16 @ $36.09 " $ 578 New thermometers 4 @ $30 " $ 120 IGG (Colostrum replacer) 20 bottles @ $105.95 $ 2,120 These are the absolute basics we use with every neonatal foal. We need more panels, shavings, meds, and the list goes on. The above is the bare minimum to be prepared for the normal neonatal babies we can expect at the beginning of the year. These are the life saving supplies that we HAVE TO HAVE to provide the best possible chance for these babies to survive. Please donate if you can. You can also purchase items directly and mail them to Chilly Pepper, 12965 Green Saddle Drive, # 233, Golconda, NV 89414. We also need baby wipes, vaseline, Biosponge, vet wrap, gauze, scalpels, needles, syringes, baby blankets, gloves, and the list goes on. Saving these babies is not cheap, but it is the least we can do for them, especially the ones whose Mom's have been shipped to slaughter. PLEASE HELP US TODAY!

With a broken heart, we had to let Dandelion go. In the midst of trying to deal with so much loss, another emergency is upon us. Another urgent 911 call. An older, WILD & PREGNANT MUSTANG is in the kill pen, and if we don't get her, she has no other option. She and her unborn baby do not deserve to ship to slaughter. We need to save her now! Her time has run out and we need to raise funds for vetting, transport, etc. so we can commit to saving her life. If we do not step up, this girl has no where to go. At this point I have not seen her, but that is not important. God put her in front of us and we need to save both of their lives. Time is of the essence and her clock is running out. _As usual, there is never time to grieve the loss of our beautiful babies. sadly, we found out that Dandelion was born with a deadly birth defect. _ Although our beautiful Dandelion was all healed up from her coyote attack and ready to head out to her "new Moms", she had a birth defect that ultimately was a death sentence. Thankfully she did not die a horrible death out on the range, but was surrounded by those she loved and her "mama"., As always, the phone rings and we received another 911. This mare and her unborn baby now have a chance, and that is YOU!. We need a "happy". PLEASE HELP US SAVE THIS MOM AND BABY NOW! I am honestly exhausted and my heart is in a million pieces. But that does not give me an excuse to not step up and try and save this Mama and unborn Baby. I may still need to grieve my beloved Christmas & Dandelion, but we don't need to add more heartbreak by letting this Mama and baby ship. On another note, the Belgian "Texas Triumph" is hanging in there. I was warned that I may go out and find he has aspirated and gotten pneumonia, or I might find him "choking" as he has what appears to be permanent damage to his throat. Both vets have warned me about the low chances he has for a long life, but we will love him and care for him as long as we can. So we had two cases from opposite ends of the spectrum, both involving a damaged esophagus. With neither one being a candidate for surgery, it means we pray hard and keep feeding Texas Triumph his mash. At this point aside from his string halt and eating issues, he is a wonderful and very happy boy!

Quick update and a great big THANK YOU to everyone who helped us with Dandelion and to get this big guy home. Dandelion is doing very well and already has an amazing couple who will be adopting her. Meet TEXAS TRIUMPH. This beautiful 4 year old was slated for slaughter. When I got the call I had to step up. Sadly, (as is pretty much the norm with most of the horses we rescue) he has a life threatening condition, caused most likely by lack of care. When I went to check on him after he arrived I saw his feed and water pouring back out his nose. Much like the 2 year old TB we rescued, he could not swallow. After nearly $3000 in vet bills for him alone, (much of that cost being for the medicine for his horrific ulcers and the infection he is fighting), we are limping along, hour by hour. His preliminary diagnosis is Esophageal Stricture, which means his Esophagus is full of scarring which is making it extremely difficult for him to eat or drink. At this point he is on liquid mash, and although he still has food and water coming back out his nose, he has been getting some down. (We had some really great poop, which means food & water are actually getting to his stomach and everything is working well inside.) He is not in pain as far as the feed and water, but had horrible ulcers. I believe the meds are working as far as the ulcers, but his prognosis is fragile at best. He has had days where he runs and plays, and then yesterday he didn't eat much. He is thriving as far as getting love and attention, and all he wants to do is "hang out". Worse case scenario is he will be loved and cared for properly until he suffers a bad case of "choke" again or gets a deadly case of pneumonia from aspirating. Best case scenario is he will live a long and healthy life, but all the vets warned me the second option is not likely. HE NEEDS YOUR PRAYERS! He is going to be part of our "Sunshine & Smiles Program" for as long as we have him. However, he is enjoying himself, wants to "cuddle" and is playing with everything he can find, interacting with the other horses and just being a great big, loving clown. So now we are struggling to catch up with the vet bills, keep feeding all the kids here, and start getting ready for foaling season. We recently got the 2 remaining stallions gelded and lots of long feet trimmed. All of this costs money and we still have 4 milk babies. So ALL help is so appreciated.

ABOVE - How beautiful and precious am I? Please help Mom save me in honor of my brother Christmas!! I begin this update with heartbreaking news for those of you who haven't heard, I had to say goodbye to Baby Christmas. He fought so long and hard, and was improving so much. Sadly we found out that the infection was so bad for so long that it damaged the inside of his neck beyond repair. His wounds were so severe there was simply no way to save him. I loved that little boy beyond measure, and he loved his Mom. Thankfully he passed peacefully, surrounded by love after days of eating his munchies and hangin' out with Mom. THANK YOU to everyone who stepped up for this beautiful soul. NOW MEET DANDELION. She shared the same daddy as Christmas, a gorgeous stallion named Black Jack.. So it's almost like we still have part of him. Now when the tears stream down my face from the agony of losing Christmas, my beautiful Dandelion seems to hug me. She was also attacked by most likely the same predator as her brother. She has horribly infected wounds that need flushed and cleaned several times a day, as well as needing 4 injections a day. We are praying once again that we get a miracle. Thankfully her prognosis, although a bit guarded, is extremely more positive than Baby Christmas' was. Of course we are still paying off vet bills for Christmas and Skipper, as well as 2 of the Sad 7 etc. etc. THANK YOU to my angels who sent payment directly to our account at the vet, or donations to us directly. You are amazing and so appreciated. It's time to stock up the barn with hay for the winter. We are currently in the middle of another ongoing rescue. We will share more when the horse is safe. We need to save him (them?), vet him and get him back home. (So glad the roads down south are not covered in ice and snow.) We so appreciate the love and support. With 4 milk babies going through about $600 worth of milk powder a week, and 30 equine here at the rescue (most of them special needs), it costs a pretty penny to do what we do.

A MIRACLE THAT BABY CHRISTMAS is STILL WITH US AND CONTINUING TO FIGHT FOR HIS LIFE. Baby Christmas was apparently attacked by Coyotes on the range. Luckily, his Mama and the band protected him and fought them off. However, he had already received serious, life threatening injuries that may still lead to his death. :( Sadly, he remained on the range for another 5? or so days after the attack, which allowed the infection to rage through his body. Issues with the quality of the Colostrum he received from his sweet Mama, combined with the lengthy stretch of time before treatment while being so injured, may still cause him to lose his life. He was unable to stand when he was brought in, and still cannot stand up by himself. He was in extremely poor condition, being close to emaciated under all that hair, extremely dehydrated, and numerous bites and punctures that had sealed over, locking the infection inside him. We have been at the emergency vet for 4 days, and he has a 50/50 chance of survival. The last blood work showed that his body was going Septic. We have since started him on different antibiotics, and he is now receiving 4 injections a day. He has so much infection draining out of his body, and is also having issues with his umbilical cord. At this point urine is leaking out, but he would not have a chance at surviving surgery. So we have been using alternate methods to try and treat that issue, although it looks like he will need surgery for that if he survives and after he becomes strong enough. This precious little man is a fighter. He definitely wants to be here, and he is drinking his milk like a champ. He is just learning about munchies, and every indication from him is that he wants to be here and plans on staying. Whether his body can cash the checks his spirit is writing is another story. We need lots and lots of prayers. The only reason he is still with us today is that so many folks are praying. We and our Docs are doing every thing possible and then some to help him survive, but it is truly in God's hands. Our bills are piling up. We want to thank American Wild Horse Campaign for raising funds and paying the $850 for the two bags of life saving Plasma he received. However, with Skipper''s Vet bill (gelding, x rays and those nasty ski's - hooves he had removed) combined with the ongoing bills from Baby Christmas, it is really going to drain the coffers. We still have other stallions with horrific feet and starvation cases from the Sad 7 to take care of, so any help with the vet bill, Milk Powder, Farrier expenses etc. etc. etc. is very much appreciated. I will continue the 24/7 care with Baby Christmas until he no longer chooses to fight. However, I do not see him quitting if he has any choice. Please pray for a successful outcome. (He also cannot use his front leg.) Our beloved Baby Christmas is definitely a hot mess. If you want to donate directly to our vet, here is the information.

BABY CHRISTMAS is fighting for his life. Another 911 Call. Walking into my physical therapy appointment I heard the phone. It was Mo, and she was calling about an orphan foal who was down and had spent the night cold and frozen in the snow. He had a leg injury and was unable to rise. So that was the end of my appointment. I called Matt and asked him to go with me and off we went. Baby Christmas is in horrific shape. He was apparently attacked days ago by a coyote or a cat. He has very infected puncture wounds on both sides of his neck. He is leaking fluids from his nostrils, which may be indicative of an internal puncture. (At this time the risk of scoping would be too dangerous.) He is on antibiotics for this and the other injuries. He was extremely dehydrated, which shows he has not been nursing for some time. When these babies are injured and have infections raging through their bodies, they can appear to be nursing and not actually be intaking fluids. Christmas was crashing when we arrived at the vet. Thankfully he had some initial critical care by Maureen and Lynn when he was picked up and transported. It was just enough to keep him alive. It actually seemed like he was leaving when we first started the IV fluids. But thankfully after a couple bags of fluid he started coming back around, and we could see he was still struggling to stay with us. This baby is beyond fragile and his condition is as critical as they come. His front leg was buckled under him and he was put in a splint. He then received meds and was tubed. He is now tucked carefully into our nursery at Chilly Pepper. We have a big vet bill today and just a few days ago we had an enormous one when we took in Skipper. He was gelded and had his feet trimmed and although still very sore, is doing well considering. We now have 4 milk babies and are going through about $600 in milk per week. We still have gelding, farrier work and extensive care for the Sad 7, as well as expenses for the rest of the kids at the rescue. Please help us with BABY CHRISTMAS & the medical and ongoing expenses for the Sad Seven. BABY CHRISTMAS needs a CHRISTMAS MIRACLE !!

A STARVING MARE AND FOAL, 3 HEAVILY PREGNANT MARES AND 2 STALLIONS NEED YOU NOW!!12/7/2019  Tiny pens, no shelter and winter is here with a vengeance. There is not enough room to move around to get warm and you cannot get away from the snow and wind. Add very little feed to the mix and you have some devastated horses. WE NEED TO SAVE THEM NOW! Failure is not an option. Meet SKIPPER, a very sad and very worried stallion. When I first saw him, my heart sank. It was like South Dakota all over again. Not only his feet, but the fact that he was actually eating his waste. He was not sniffing around for hay, he was literally chomping down on the feces in his pen. These horses will do whatever it takes to survive. (The gentleman taking care of these animals has been in the hospital and stepped up to ask for help. They are not even his horses, so I am so thankful that he asked for help, even thought the last thing I was wanting for Christmas was 7 more horses.) We need to save Mama and her little baby. Mama has had zero milk for sometime and is old and emaciated. I had to pay their bail today. I simply could not bear the thought of her and her baby out in the cold, hungry and trying to survive. Three more heavily pregnant mares and the 2 stallions need us also. Every one has hoof issues, and even the little baby has horribly long hooves. This is another thing I learned in South Dakota, (from Karen herself). A very young baby with really long hooves is the result of starvation :( It's a tough time of year to pick up 7 new kids, and Chilly Pepper needs your help. These horses need your help. We are going to have extensive veterinary, farrier and feed expenses. We will need homes for the pregnant mares and the stallions once their feet are better and they are gelded. However, there is no way I can say no and leave them there. It's almost Christmas! Let's give them the gift of happiness, love and the care they deserve!

These 2 teeny tinies need a safe place to land, and we are it. Both are pretty much unhandled and are little stud colts. Please help us get them today!!

We were able to bail out the older TB mare, as well as help save 2 stallions. Thank you everyone who stepped up.

It is go time once again. First I want to say Thank You, for saving so many precious lives. Sadly, the emergencies keep coming and we have a very short deadline to save these horses. I NEED TO COMMIT BY FRIDAY MORNING TO KEEP THEM OFF THE TRUCK!, But it is up to y'all if you want me to say yes! I received an urgent call this morning. We have three, possibly 4 who are scheduled to ship Friday, -(The Stallion call was a separate one, but we need to try and save him too.) We have an old Arabian mare. She is said to be as sweet as sweet can be. Her hooves need a bit of help, but she deserves no less than to live out her life in peace, surrounded only by love. We have another old and pregnant TB mare. She definitely needs some TLC, and being pregnant, she desperately needs the proper groceries. There is another pony who may have an adopter. We are praying that is the case. The Stallion mentioned above is approximately 4 years old, and you are his only chance. The great news with him is that he has a wonderful home offer if we can save him. All these kids will need to be bailed, vet checked, transported and cared for as always. We cannot save them without the funding needed to cover the costs and to provide feed and care. PLEASE HELP US SAVE THESE LIVES! Back at the rescue we have stallions to geld, lots of vet bills and a large need for milk powder. Our little Jack donk needs serious hoof care and he needs to get gelded before the weather is too bad. Castle, our yearling stallion also needs to be gelded immediately.

ANOTHER MIRACLE BABY - MEET LITTLE MAX, AND HIS MAMA WHO REJECTED HIM. They just keep coming. All the horses in the last batch have been saved. Luckily another rescue stepped up and helped fund raise and there is only one left at this time. We are slated to bring him home if he does not get adopted in the next few hours. Sadly, between his fees and Coggins etc., we will need another $750 just to save him, and that does not include the additional babies.. It cost $6027 ($1400 to save the horses and the rest for Coggins and Health Certs and to get the emergency vet care for our gentle giant and the tiny Max. Big Matt had a bad case of colic, and Little Matt was on his way to a certain death. In addition, one of the horses I am bringing home on this next trip needed emergency vet care yesterday for an infected hoof. So that pretty much wiped out the coffers. We try to do as much of the vetting as we can, but sometimes you have to bite the bullet and save the lives God puts in front of you. So we need more help now! I have to get to WA, so we can save the 4 babies waiting at the feed lot. Then those horses have to get vetted and we have to get back home. THE MIRACLE OF MAX-AMILLION I received the call for MAX, hours after he was born. His Mama absolutely refused to have anything to do with him and shoved him into a water tank. So this newborn (probably a preemie) ended up with no care, a Mama bent on hurting him, and wet and frozen cold out in the freezing winds. It was a horrific way for a tiny baby to begin life. I was told that he was given colostrum. He couldn't really swallow, and had no suckling reflex whatsoever. It took forever to get even tiny amounts of milk down him. The next morning we had the vet check him. Everything seemed fine. That afternoon little Max was unconscious.. We gave him glucose and Mel worked on waking him up. When he came back to, he sat up and drank his milk like nothing had happened. I was pretty sure we had turned a corner, but that little voice said take him to WSU - the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. It was 4 hours away and I was exhausted and dreading the drive, but I knew God was telling us to go. THANKFULLY WE DID! Max-amillion had zero Passive Transfer, which means he had no colostrum. Not enough to even register. He has pneumonia, fluid around his lungs from the pneumonia, and he would have died for sure. Between the vet bills for Big Matt and Little Max-amillion, and the funds spent purchasing the rescued horses, we simply need to recharge our funds. We need to get the rest of the kids and bring them home. I was told several are still needing milk, although I have yet to see them, THANK YOU to everyone who made all this possible. Please let's finish this long rescue and get these babies to safety. MAX says, THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE AND MY MAMA TOO, even if she doesn't want me.

ANOTHER 911 CALL! They just do not stop in our world. 2 More wild babies at the shipper's so far, (and most likely more to come!) Folks have seen multiple "traps" that are currently full of wild horses, right now, today! We received an urgent call for a group of kids that are shipping in a few days? 6 Domestics, 3 more older, "gentle giants", who were purportedly driving horses, and 3 older saddle horses. All of these horses worked their lives away, and now that they are no longer needed, they have been thrown in the trash. Let's show them that timing aside, no matter what time of year, their lives DO matter! Rescue is never convenient, and this is the worst time of year to be taking on more horses. However, their lives ALWAYS matter, even if it is freezing outside and it takes tremendous amounts of work to care for them. We will save as many as we can get funding for. But this means being responsible and knowing we have enough money to not only "buy them", but to vet them, transport them and feed and care for them properly through the winter months, or until we can get them adopted. So it will be up to y'all, as always. YOU decide how many more we can save. Y'all are amazing, but we simply cannot do this without you. We are exhausted, but we had to put it out there and give these guys a chance. Big Matt was colicking the 2nd night we got him. He is a hot mess, and needs lots of prayers. His heart rate was double what it should have been and the vet was very concerned. Sadly, he is a very long way from being "out of the woods'. We are hoping and praying his new drug protocol will provide comfort and not too many side effects. We have already spent a fortune on him, but he needs as much help as we can give him. At this time, he cannot seem to lie down. A horse HAS to be able to lie down, or it will be a death sentence. He is exhausted and when he tried to lay down, he got half way down, and it was too hard for him. He started moaning, and then finally stood back up. Vet has him starting on some good meds, so we will see if we can make him comfortable and give him a good quality of life. Can you imagine weighing 1900 pounds, your feet and legs hurting, and not being able to lie down to rest and get off of them? We HAVE TO MAKE SURE his quality of life is one that he deserves! Horses also need to sleep. :( We will be heading home with this current group of kids tomorrow. How many we will be able to pick up when we come back depends on you. Please help us save and take care of as many as possible. We are also praying other folks will step up and help these horses, but for now, all we can do is try and save as many as we can. Thank you as always for your miracles and your prayers!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

We simply do not have enough funds to save all these kids. We have to be responsible to the horses already at the rescue, and we cannot take on more if we cannot properly care for them. That being said, I believe there are enough folks who care about these precious souls who will step up and help us save them. We have committed to paying for 5, but have not covered the costs yet. Again, we are going on faith, even committing to those 5. It takes an average of approximately $350 per horse, to purchase, get them vetted and have their blood drawn, (so they can be transported) and get them home. That is just to “save them”, and that is just the beginning.. That does not include basic feed or any additional vet care etc. We HAVE to have additional funds for feed & care (hay, grain, vaccines etc.), or we cannot commit to saving them all. Matt and I are willing to do the work, but the horses need your help now! You have saved so many lives, please let’s keep on “Gitten ‘Er done”’ and save ALL 9 of these lives. The donkeys are in extremely poor shape health wise. The stud is extremely aggressive, and has not only plowed over one of our favorite people and sent him flying, he BITES! Their hooves are in horrible shape, and they will need lots of extra care and vetting. I am out of town, and was actually trying to take a couple “rescue free” days to have time to say good bye to a much loved friend. But this was a call I couldn’t ignore. (I know she would be unhappy if I let these innocent babies die, just because my heart is filled with sadness by her passing). So in her honor I am continuing the fight, and asking y’all for another miracle. Let’s save these lives. PLEASE donate now!!!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

Another 911 call today. Shipper in WA has at least 3 for us. I need to let him know asap if we can take them. TWO of them are easily big enough to ship, but we were offered the chance to save them. However, as always, there is a looming deadline. We are so grateful to y'all for helping us save the 71 babies in August and September, but these lives are just as important. We have been absolutely swamped caring for the nearly 90 horses we had at Chilly Pepper, but thankfully, our angels stepped up to help us find placement for many of the babies. We are now close to 30 horses, but that is still a very large number going into winter. We need to stock up on groceries and meds. With temperatures sinking in to the low 20's in the next week, we are fighting the cold weather, "water blues". (Low 20's means freezing water tanks, frozen hoses, broken water lines etc. So we need to buy new tank heaters and get ready for the cold immediately. It's only September, ugh.) We are working on more shelter so all these kids will be comfortable and warm. In the past, this much shelter was not needed, as our numbers were normally lower. However, as we are sitting on close to 30 horses and the weather is already going to be brutal, we need to get the extra shelters set up. Especially as we are (hopefully) heading out to get more. The (4 legged) kids are also eating us out of house and home. We need to order more hay, grain, milk pellets etc. and are now heading to WA, IF we can save these babies. This will mean more vetting etc. (It was over $500 for the last 5). As our coffers were nearly wiped out with the 71 needing so much special feed, milk pellets, vetting etc., we need to get back on track. Please help us save these lives and prepare for the upcoming winter. We need your help and together, as always, we can "git 'er done" and keep saving lives. Thank you from all the horse kids and the rest of the critters. Your donation makes a difference. Every single penny adds up, and it is clear that when we all come together, we CAN make a difference.

Yes, Matt and I work non-stop, but it would mean nothing without the love and support of people like you. Together, we are making a very real difference and we are actually saving lives. So many people complain about the issues, but do nothing. Your wonderful donation has actually saved the lives of real horses. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. The picture of Whiskey is a perfect example of one of the lives you saved. He is a very happy, nearly normal, little baby. Thank you for making this happen, and thank you for your donation. Hugs, Palomino. I am sorry that I am behind as usual on my "thank you's" - (I am working on getting better and quicker, but y'all have made it possible to save so many lives that I am running non-stop just to feed and water everyone.

MEET TATIANA - CAN WE HELP HER? SHE IS IN EXTREMELY CRITICAL CONDITION! SHE NEEDS HELP NOW!9/1/2019  Thank you for helping us save all 71 babies. In the middle of all that, we rescued another Virginia Range yearling with a nail in her foot. Sadly, the only option was to end her excruciating pain. ANOTHER EMERGENCY CALL YESTERDAY. We picked up this beautiful little girl last night. She is about as critical as they come. We also found out she has extreme issues with peripheral vision and appears to be completely blind behind her. She was terrified, shaking and lashing out, kicking viciously out of utter panic and terror, if anything accidentally touched her hind end or she herself touched something. She is beyond sweet and NEEDS YOUR HELP! She stayed right outside the nursery door, surrounded by babies, babies, babies on either side. She ate and as I was awake all night, I heard her urinate twice. That is why you "sleep (or stay awake lol)" with your critical cases and your babies. I would have no way of knowing if she was passing any fluids if I couldn't hear her. She will need veterinary care, blood tests, medicine, special feed etc. and we still have close to 70 horses here. 19 went to their new homes yesterday. PTL! So if you can help us give her a chance it would be much appreciated. Tatiana was named after Titan,our beautiful boy we rescued last year. He came in to us in about the same shape, but the damage the starvation did to him was too severe. He had a year of love and happiness, but yesterday he was done. Please help us save her and honor his memory. She truly needs a miracle, and if we can save her, she most likely will end up a permanent rescue in our blind pen with the other kids.
