 911 FOR 19 MORE LIVES!! ANOTHER CALL FROM THE SHIPPER AND THE CATCHERS! 16 MORE BABIES AND A RARE CHANCE TO SAVE 3 PREGNANT MARES! (We are still in the middle of rescuing the 27, and I NEED MORE HELP TO SAVE ALL OF THESE LIVES! Thankfully we have had some wonderful adoptions and I am down to 6 babies with me now, as well as the 9 babies in Golconda with the rest of the kids. Both Strawberry and the abused TB are safe and sound in their new homes. PTL! We have had some significant injuries in the last group, and the vet bills take a huge chunk of the donations. One of the HIDDEN COSTS of rescue are Brand Inspections. I spent over $660 in the last few weeks for a simple piece of paper that is required for every horse. But most people have no idea that we spend so much money on these. Legally it is required, and it hurts badly as it eats into the budget. __ As you can see in the photo, this mare was desperate to escape. They are terrified and cannot understand why they are suddenly trapped. (Not to mention what they have been through during the roundups.) It is supposed to be the end of the catching season. Today, I was sent pictures of these mares. PLEASE DO NOT LET THEIR FACES HAUNT ME FOREVER! I truly need a break, but these lives were put in front of me for a reason. Obviously it is God's plan for us to try and save them. I cannot do it without you. Please make this happen! The clock is ticking..... I NEED YOUR HELP TO SAVE THESE PRECIOUS LIVES! The mares are very thin and very pregnant. I cannot stand the thought of them on the slaughter truck. I know it is easy to run on "faith" when things are a bit difficult, but it is even more important to trust in the really hard times, or it doesn't mean anything. So I am trusting we can raise the funds we need to purchase all 19 OF THE NEW GROUP OF horses AND to get them vetted, hauled home to safety and fed and cared for until they have found their forever homes. I HAVE TO RAISE ENOUGH FUNDS TO RESPONSIBLY RESCUE THESE lives. They all need to be fed and cared for after they are saved. This mare is extremely thin, and very pregnant. Let's get her to safety so she can get her groceries and have her baby in peace, not have it ripped out and thrown onto the slaughter floor. She needs your help now!

I AM AT 27 AND MORE TO COME??? DO I SAY YES TO THE REST? IT'S UP TO YOU. THEY NEED YOUR HELP NOW!10/8/2020  STILL MORE BABIES NEED YOUR HELP!! This rescue is at 27 so far, and still growing. Catchers are running like crazy before the bad weather hits. Do I tell them, YES or No? It's up to you! THE NUMBERS RIGHT NOW ARE AT 27 - 23 BABIES, 1 Pregnant wild mare, the other abused wild TB mare, and still working on the pony. 5 of those are still at the Shipper's, which pretty much guarantees by the time they are "ready to go", there will be more. So far, there has NEVER been a pickup that didn't have more babies. I appreciate every penny that has been donated. Sadly, if I am going to be able to save ALL these precious lives, the horses simply need more help. It is kind of terrifying to think about so many mouths to feed etc. However, our wonderful adoption coordinator has found homes for 6 of the babies and I have both mares adopted out as well. I still have 9 babies in Golconda, and winter is coming. I am willing do the work, but I need your help for the funding. I want to send out a big thank you to Matt. He came up from Texas to fix my water lines and decided to come and help me on this rescue before heading to CA. He has been a big blessing and it was nice to not be here on my own this time. For the folks who feel like reading, I wanted to share a day in the life of a rescue with y’all. It is pretty much the reality of what it is like to do this work. This morning I woke up, ran to town for supplies, spent a couple hours with an amazing adopter, picked up more orphaned foals, fed, watered and vetted the ones with injuries and finally sat down. As I write this, the reality sets in. I have a beautiful camp site where I have my “temporary corrals” set up. My veggies are simmering in butter over the fire, and it is so beautiful out. The air is soft and clear, and as the music plays, my heart swells thinking of how beautiful everything is. I try to enjoy as much as I can each, and every day and appreciate what is in front of me. Reality is the knife that comes deep in my heart. The beauty tonight is pierced by the horrors that brought me here. Although I have made this the absolute best “home away from home” I possibly can, the night is pierced by the screams of babies torn away from their Mamas and their families. Their anguished, wailing cries, hanging heads and beat up bodies show the horrors of what just happened. The absolutely, bewildered look in the eyes of these broken babies rips out your heart. At this very moment, their moms, brothers, sisters, and dads are crushed in a slaughter truck, able to make no sense of what happened. Days ago, they were running free, and tonight they are kicked and bitten as too many of them are crammed together in the truck of death. I am so grateful to have a place to set up and take care of these broken souls, and as most of you know I spend weeks living in “camp” in my horse trailer so I can save these babies, pregnant mares, old stallions and anyone else God throws into the mix. But listening to these babies scream for their mama’s all night long, is ripping my heart out. As the tears stream down my face, the pain is so physical it nearly makes me ill. This was NOT my dream, to be buried in the sewer that is the slaughter world. But God puts it in front of me, so this IS my world. It isn’t bad enough that only yesterday as I drove here, I was up to 16 weanlings, not including the pregnant mare, the other crazed, injured and abused wild mare, and the bratty pony. TODAY, I picked up 6 instead of 4, and there are ANOTHER 5 at the Shipper’s. So today’s number is 23, NOT 16, and that is just the babies. Every day it seems to grow…… When I think about trying to explain the need for help, it is simply overwhelming. I so say “no” all the time, but when I am the only thing standing between death and these babies, I have to give it my all. Honestly, I am beyond tired. I want to cry I am so tired. Emotionally, physically I am exhausted. But I cannot have that negative energy with these babies. They need to feel safe and like they are loved. So I sit here wondering how much more I can take. I know God won’t give us more than we can handle, but sometimes I wonder how tough He thinks I really am. _This is my evening. Trying to make the best of the situation put in front of me. Wondering how soon everyone would quit reading the sad news that I spout as I try to save these precious lives. So many 911’s and emergencies. THIS IS MY LIFE ON THE FRONT LINE!_ Listening to the heartbreaking screams of the babies. Knowing their families are rattling around in a slaughter bound trailer, terrified, and missing their babies. Yet I have to struggle on, because if I quit, all of these lives will be lost, and not in a humane fashion. Once again saving ALL of these souls depends on you, my Chilly Pepper Family. YOU are the Angels that make it happen. The chance of it only being 27 is nearly impossible, but one can hope. Thank you for saving so many lives!

TRAWBERRY, the pregnant roan mare has been saved, along with 8 of the babies. THANK YOU to each and every one of you who helped save them! THERE ARE STILL 4 MORE BABIES PLUS THE 2 that I JUST GOT CALLED ON (while I was typing this). I need to commit to the babies, and we now have this sad little pony and the injured mare on the "URGENT - CLOCK HAS RUN OUT" list. WILL YOU HELP SAVE THE REST OF THEM? I am hoping and praying this is NOT the time I have to leave horses behind. I know I cannot save the world, and I say "no" constantly, but this rescue is drawing out and I need to know if we can come up with enough funds to save ALL OF THEM! This poor mare has been given a bum rap. She was mishandled, horribly abused and now is simply terrified if too much pressure is put on her. Her baby was just stripped away and now she is being thrown away. She was also injured. She does not deserve to die! So many times people only want the baby, and somehow there is an excuse to throw away Mama. Let's show her that HER LIFE MATTERS! These are some of the kids you have saved already during this ongoing rescue! Thank you so much for each and every one of their lives.

IT'S GO TIME AGAIN - Just got the call for a pregnant wild mare who is slated to ship tomorrow. I have to commit asap so we can keep her off the slaughter truck. Catcher called, and so did the shipper. I have AT LEAST 12 MORE BABIES AT THIS MOMENT - and more expected by the time I get there. However, I CANNOT say yes to saving these kids without raising enough money to pay back the emergency funds that were depleted with this last rescue. With the balances left for the unexpected repairs on the trucks and trailers, the last batch of hay and the previous vetting, even the emergency funds are depleted. Chilly Pepper cannot responsibly commit to saving more horses without having enough money to care for the horses we already have saved. I am sure if there are 12 babies now, by the time I get up there we will be looking at a much larger number. The catchers are out in full force trying to get as many rounded up as they can before winter. I realize the world as we once knew it is upside down. I am having to make decisions based on the reality of our current situation. I can only save horses I know I can provide and care for. I am hoping that y'all want them saved enough to skip a latte, or a night out, or that much loved pedicure. Times are tough, but these horses do not deserve to be slaughtered. More and more people are dumping horses and it seems like we are doing quite a bit of "hospice type care". Saving these animals and providing the love and care they so deserve for the short bit of time I often have with them is important. YOU decide how many I (we - together) can keep saving. CAN WE RAISE ENOUGH FUNDS TO SAVE THIS PREGNANT MARE AND ALL OF THE BABIES? I am praying so.  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

THANK YOU FOR THE LOVE AND SUPPORT AND FOR GETTING THESE "GRANDMA'S & INJURED BABIES" TO SAFETY9/15/2020  Thank you for your wonderful donation and all of the love and support. I wanted to take a couple minutes to stop and say "thank you" for your life-saving donation. I cannot begin to express my appreciation for your help saving these precious lives. This group is a hot mess. We have two babies who had huge chunks of their faces ripped away by "an adult horse?" (That is the info I was given.) The injuries are pretty horrific and we have 2 others with infected legs and another who was stepped on and can barely walk. So sadly, lots of injuries that need a lot of special care and medication. Grandma Sue is in with one of the babies and loving it. She is missing most all of her teeth, so is another "special needs" lady. It is so nice to watch her with the baby. They bring so much comfort to each other. Sadly Great Grandma Lilly most likely has very little time. She was down this morning and I was not sure if she would be able to get back up. Thankfully our prayer chain was answered and she is up again. SHE IS A VERY HAPPY GIRL THOUGH. We had her hoofers done, had her vetted yesterday and have given her every thing the vet could think of to help her get stronger. Her teeth are horrific, but Doc said "her legs are even worse", and that is not good. She is simply enjoying the loves and having food that she can actually eat. She is drinking and eating well, but there has been a tremendous amount of damage done to her poor body. I am afraid she will only be here for a short time, but at least she is not going to die scared and alone, but rather surrounded by love and having a full belly and no pain. She loves to cuddle, and can do so much longer than I can stand on my leg. She is obviously feeling very safe and is surrounded by other horses, but none can steal her feed. It is a gift to be able to spend her last days loving and caring for her. I hope God has His vengeance with the man who did this to her. :( Below, one of my favorite little "would have been a lead mare lol"  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

A HEARTBREAKING CALL FOR AN ABUSED, EMACIATED "GREAT GRANDMA". Lilly is a 35? year old mare who was on her way to a horrific end. Her feet are horrible, she can barely walk, she is starved beyond measure and her teeth are a nightmare. Yet even after being abused and neglected, she is still the sweetest thing on this earth. WILL YOU HELP ME HELP HER? You can clearly see by how uneven her teeth are that she has had no care, and has been slowly starving to death. I honestly don't know if we can offer her more than good food, comfort, and no pain, but I will do every possible thing I can to make the rest of her short life the best of her life. But I need your help to do that. ANOTHER HEARTBREAK - Grandma Sue is a wild, very old, very thin mare who does NOT deserve to be crammed into a crowded trailer and trampled on the way to the slaughter house. I honestly do not know if she will much time left either, but it should certainly be one where she is loved and cared for. I have AT LEAST 9 MORE BABIES coming, NOT INCLUDING the 4 we just got. So we need to vet 15 more kids on Monday, so I can hopefully head back to NV. The stock trailer is finally fixed, to the tune of $2500+, but we have to be safe when we haul this precious cargo. I realize the emergencies keep on coming, (believe me, I am emotionally and physically exhausted, especially because I am here alone), but these babies and these "old ladies" feel like their life is just as important as the other ones we saved. So PLEASE help me save them if you can. The Shipper is loading tomorrow, so I need to commit to "Grandma Sue" immediately, and let him know if you want to save her, and if I can take the babies. I have to raise enough funds to safely do so. If you want me to save these before I head back to NV, I need your help now! The babies have no where else to go. Every life matters, and I guess these kids are also part of the reason God kept me here, because if I had gone home, Grandma and Great Grandma would be facing a horrific ending, and we all know what that means. However, since I am still here, with your help, we can save them both. AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU to everyone who donated, shares the posts and lifts the much needed prayers. Together, we ARE making a difference! Dakota is hanging in there. Doc said his eye will most likely need to be removed when I get back home, but at least some of the pressure has been relieved and the horrible wound on his side is draining nicely. THANK YOU for helping him! Below, the photo that was sent of "Grandma Sue"  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

TODAY'S EMERGENCY INTAKE - THE REASON WHY I AM "STILL HERE"? A LIFE SAVING CALL FROM THE TRAPPER!9/6/2020  Meet "DAKOTA" - Chilly Pepper's newest critical care child. I had an emergency intake today. A 911 call from the Trapper to see if I wanted to help an injured colt. The decision had already been made to "destroy the colt", when the trapper heard "I was still in WA". Is Dakota the real reason I was stuck here for so long? I knew God had a reason, and if I had left for NV as planned, this beautiful yearling would be dead right now. I am so grateful for the call and the chance to save him. Dakota will most likely need his eye removed due to the amount of trauma. It is horribly injured and he is on pain meds and antibiotics. He will be vetted at the earliest opportunity, and sadly, his care will be spendy to say the least. God obviously kept me here for a reason, and it was clear to me that I was supposed to be here for Dakota, so of course I agreed. ( I was actually expecting a call for something like this, critically injured or ill. ) However, I am praying hard for a different outcome than we had with my beautiful "Miracle Girl". Dakota was wild, but is gentling up quickly as he seems to understand we are helping. Mama Mel and Cam rushed right over so we could get him vetted and some pain meds on board. Teamwork makes the dreams work! *So grateful for the amazing folks around me!* He also has a huge hard lump behind his right leg, which actually concerns me nearly as much as his eye. I am praying it is nothing too serious. At this point he is much more comfortable than when he arrived and is munching his hay and enjoying his pain meds. Please help this little guy if you can and say a prayer that the infection has not spread too far. Chilly Pepper was obviously not in a wonderful financial position to take on a baby with his needs, but he is here and he is staying with me. Again, this was a "faith decision". How could I not when it was so obvious that I was not going home on my schedule. I am so grateful to God for all the hiccups or this little man would not be here with me. When I get these calls, I never know what the injuries will look like or how badly they are hurt. You just get to say "yes or no", so I said "yes"! Please help me provide the care that he needs. Your love and support are SO APPRECIATED! Thank you to everyone who is helping us get the vehicles back on the road and the horses home safe! Below: The Pregnant mare y'all saved!! She came with a baby, but sadly it was not her baby. The filly has been adopted by some wonderful folks who are constantly stepping up to help me when I am up here. So again - a 3 life save!

We have the mare above that I still need to pay for, (I simply couldn't wait to fund raise and had to commit on faith.) PLUS - MORE BABIES are coming from the trapper and the shipper! It's been a super rough week, and as usual we don't know for sure how many horses need us. One of the catchers had at least 3, and that is just for today. Shipper has ? The rescue has been hit all at once with the need for truck tires, (and it was imminent - one was ready to blow), transmission repair and brake work for the truck and wiring on the horse trailer braking system. After getting the transmission fixed, thanks to some amazing people out there, the hauler was on the way when the brakes started to malfunction. After checking both the truck and trailer, we are looking at another bill (not including tires or transmission) that will be anywhere from an expected bill of $1500 to $2000?? or more. (It was internal, brake pads are fine, but we still have to get the necessary repairs to actually have working brakes, and the stock trailer has some wiring that is old and sketchy ie. dangerous. I still can't get back to NV until we get the 2nd truck and trailer fixed. However, instead of being gone back to NV, I was here to treat one of the colts that came in with an injury. He is beautiful, but it took all of us to safely treat him without causing him unnecessary stress. He has certainly been through enough. I know there is a reason for the delays, and the babies and emergencies have not stopped. ONCE AGAIN, THE HORSES NEED YOU! HOWEVER, the transmission AND the new tires were covered by some amazing angels who donated specifically for that! THANK YOU ANGELS! That means we need another $1500 plus ? just to finish the brakes, front end repairs and wiring on the trailer. THEN, we still need funds to save these new kids and vet them, get them home etc. etc. IF YOU CAN HELP me save these babies and the mares, PLEASE DO SO! This has been a crazy 3 weeks and I am going to have to turn around and come back, but I know we can save these horses, IF you help make it happen! BELOW - The injured "Slide" stares longingly at what used to be the path to his home. It is so traumatic for these babies to be ripped away and stuffed into what must feel like prison. Help me save him, (and the rest of them), and give them the best life we can!

I realize the groups are running together, (believe me, I want to go home...) But as usual, in the middle of the last 20+ rescued, as I wait for paperwork I get another call for more. MORE BABIES need us NOW! I have to give the catcher and trapper an answer by tomorrow to see if we can take on the new ones in front of us. We need to save the stallion too. LET'S SAVE THEM ALL!! I realize the pandemic has wiped out so much income and caused so much hardship, and I so appreciate every penny that has been donated. However, I can only rescue as many critters as I have funds for. I need to raise the funds to finish this last group (we still have 12 available for adoption) and then have enough to safely and responsibly save this next group. I will keep going as long as I can, but right now I cannot responsibly say yes to more horses without your help and commitment! WILL YOU HELP ME SAVE THEM? Just this morning they were with their families. Tonight, alone but together, they scream for their Mama's and their band. Please help us give them the gift of life. I asked, and there is no where else for them to go, and we all know what that means. Some sad/glad news, we had to say goodbye to Ranger today. Ranger was a supposed 20 year old that y'all saved years ago. In reality he was 30 ish at the time and he has spent the last years in absolute heaven on earth with a wonderful family and their 3 kids. He has been a special needs and on mash and this morning I had to say goodbye. He had the most beautiful ending to his life, but it still hurts and it broke my heart. THIS is a big part of what y'all do. You not only save lives, but you give these animals the most precious gift possible, by allowing them to be loved and spoiled the last years of their lives.

Since my last update, including this little angel, y'all saved 12 babies lives!!!!!** AS ALWAYS, the calls KEEP COMING! The new number is 12, YES - ANOTHER 12, and I am currently on standby for babies from 2 other catchers. So most likely by the time vetting would come, I will be even more buried. DO I tell him yes? Their Mom's and Dad's literally just loaded onto a slaughter truck, and I need to be able to say YES to all of them!! This will put Vetting, coggins and paperwork in the multiple thousands. DO WE, our CHILLY PEPPER FAMILY - SAVE THEM??? I cannot do this without raising funds to pay for them, feed them, etc. etc. I honestly would rather crawl into a hole and not talk to anyone or see anyone. I lost my beautiful "Little Miracle Girl". It hurts so much and it is like she literally climbed into my soul. She certainly crawled physically into me.. More heartbreak - I simply do not have words that will do this beautiful girl justice. She survived predators, ie bears, cougars, coyotes and a harsh environment with little feed and water. Her whole life must have been excruciating, except for the last 4 days she was with me. Thankfully she had pain meds and oh so much love. All she wanted was to be in my lap. She literally would try to crawl into me and was ALWAYS nuzzling my knee. It was as if she knew that we shared the same excruciating type of pain, although hers had to be worse. She was a completely wild filly on Sunday and could kick like a pro. We bonded the second our eyes met. It sounds funny, but if you look at her in the pictures it is like we were together forever. Sadly, when the vet took x-rays BOTH of her joints had huge broken pieces of bone floating around. It had to be beyond excruciating. Add that to her pneumonia and swollen joints (which ended up being septic), her life could hardly have been more painful. I was so not expecting this. Her pneumonia was a thousand times better, and she wanted life so badly. It was an excruciating decision, but the ONLY RIGHT DECISION FOR HER. All I can do is crawl out of my hole and save the next 12 in her honor. My beautiful girl took so much of my heart with her. THANK YOU EVERYONE who gave her a chance. She had the heart of a lion and if we didn't have the bone chips we could have at least fought longer. At least if you look at her photo's it is obvious how loved she felt and at peace, knowing she was being helped. I treasure every second I had with her, but now I have to fight for the new ones to honor her spirit.  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

A SHARP KNIFE - OR A CHANCE AT LIFE? ANOTHER EMERGENCY CALL, - MORE BABIES? WHICH ONES DO WE SAVE?8/16/2020  Where to even start. Above - MY LITTLE MIRACLE GIRL Another 911 call this morning. Would I give this little girl a chance?? When she was brought in off the range, the choices were a sharp knife or give her a chance with me. We have seen worse legs that healed, legs that looked better but did not heal, but never have I seen such a healthy little girl with such a fighting attitude. I had to say yes. Yesterday I was looking at 8 babies, heading out to pick up 3 more and wondering how on earth I could say yes to all of them. Once again it was on faith. Faith that someone will skip a coffee and send that money. I know Covid has changed our world and funds are tight, but we funds are nowhere near where we need to be. Vetting the 13 that are in front of me is going to be hideously expensive. We have several babies with injuries, most of them I can treat, but at least one of them will need surgery and of course this little one will need some veterinary intervention and I will treat her under my vet. MY LITTLE MIRACLE GIRL needs a miracle, and I have every intention of fighting with her as long as she wants. LOOK at how beautiful she is. That big toned butt, her shiny coat. This little girl wants to thrive to survive. As always, I am on the front lines and it is one emergency after another. It is exhausting and my silly shoulder is not working so that adds an extra special element of fun to the whole rescue. I wonder sometimes if that is why God sends me the worst cases, because I can relate??? Anyway, as usual the success of the rescue is in your hands. THANK YOU for doing so much to save so many lives. Please say a prayer for "My Little Miracle Girl". She needs so many. Reba is struggling so we are changing up her feed and running more blood work. I have also had another sort of rescue put in front of me. There is a starving Mama kitty and 4? out of 5 babies left? So I am also working on trapping them. Apparently the local dogs have been killing the cats left and right and "taking care of the issue". So prayers that I can trap them and we can get them fixed and homed. THANK YOU EVERYONE who is part of this ongoing journey to save God's creatures. There are simply no words to express my appreciation. Y'all Rock!

Above - one of the babies y'all just saved. Another 911, 2 urgent calls for orphans today. One from the shipper - and another call from one of the catchers. I know there are 4 at the catchers and not sure how many are at the shippers. It's up to y'all if we can keep saving these precious lives. I simply cannot do it without your help. You save so many, and I am praying we can keep saving more. I will do the work if y'all keep helping with the finances. (I am sure by the time I get there the numbers will have grown as usual. But I am guessing 8 or more?) We are tapped out from all the vet bills, bail, medications, transport etc. etc., not to mention feeding our special needs kids. These babies have nowhere to go, and as you can see, our beautiful REBA, (shown below) is going to need vet care, blood work, and can only have mash for the rest of her life. She needs help now. She did ask me to tell you - THANK YOU FOR SAVING MY LIFE, NOW PLEASE HELP ME FEEL BETTER........ Please help save more lives. There are so many times I think I just can't stand the heartbreak anymore, but how do I limp away? Each and every single life matters. In all reality though, you decide who we save.

Some of the last group of babies y'all saved. THANK YOU, ALL OF YOU, who are making a difference whether it is from sharing, caring and praying, or donating. Together we can keep saving them. I wanted to take a quick moment and say how grateful I am for ALL OF YOUR DONATIONS and the LOVE AND SUPPORT! My heart is broken once again, and *only YOU and the faith I have in God has gotten me this far.* Lindsy, the beautiful 30 year old + paint pony, was always a possible "humane euthanasia". When Doc recommended giving her a chance and the medicine which could help her, I did every possible thing anyone could do. She had more love in the last few weeks than a lot of horses ever get in a lifetime. It was expensive to get her medicine and get her lil hoofers done, but thanks TO ALL OF YOU, she had EVERY chance and oh so much love. She DID NOT ship to slaughter. So although it hurt so much to love her enough to end her pain, that is what had to be done. Losing Samantha, the little pony with the horrible injuries to her face, and eye, just about did me in. After spending lots of time vetting and caring for her, she was at the vet to have her eye repaired again. Before her surgery even began, she passed under anesthesia. With all the damage done to her face and skull, there was a really good chance she had either a brain bleed or even a heart issue. When Doc called me it was beyond devastating. She was just a baby. We have to remember once again, she had more love and care in her short time with us than she had ever had. I really like to think that all the mischief she caused was for fun, and not from pain, but all I know is that she is at peace and running free in heaven. Rescue is beyond hard, but every single horse you saved AVOIDED the slaughter truck and knew love and tenderness before they left this earth. Again, THANK YOU for all your donations and for helping so many of these precious souls. Hugs from a devastated heart, P  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

Wow - the calls just won't stop. I've been home all of 3 days, and this injured and starving mare was today's 911. We have to save her. She is super sweet and can hardly walk and is obviously starving. She wouldn't even make the trip to slaughter and would be trampled in the truck. That can't happen. Shipper called and the babies below are in the trailer. Mom's and families have been loaded and are on their way to slaughter. We have to take these babies - they have no where else to go. Sadly, the beautiful Granny passed away last night due to the head injuries inflicted on her at the same time they destroyed her lip. Our hearts are broken but there is not even a moment to grieve, or even breathe. At least she is out of pain and was surrounded by love for her last few days. I can only imagine what the numbers will be by the time I actually get there to pick them up. For now, Mama Mel will be taking care of the babies and I need to call tonight and let them know if we can take Reba, (the starving/injured mare). Our vet bills were just a few dollars shy of $5,000 for this last rescue, (before I even got home). Sweet Sally, the donkey, needs more x-rays. Samantha, (the little mini) needs her eye either repaired or removed. The stallions need to be gelded and the kids with Cushings need more meds. The list goes on and on. I know the world has turned upside down, but my life didn't really change. I keep getting calls and as long as y'all keep helping and want to save these lives, I will keep on fighting. This is beyond exhausting, but if you look at that worried face on Reba, well it is almost as if she knows something bad is coming. Let's make sure only good comes to her for the rest of her life. THANK YOU, ALL OF YOU, who are making a difference whether it is from sharing, caring and praying, or donating. Together we can keep saving them. Off to feed and give meds.

 IT WON'T STOP! MORE BABIES ripped away from their families n their Mama's. Sometimes this feels so overwhelming. Trying desperately to get back home. I have the Haulers lined up and WHAM - another phone call. Catcher called - AT LEAST 5 BABIES, and one who "really needs a drink". I can only imagine what shape he is in. It's over 100 degrees today. We have huge vet bills from these last two groups and spent a fortune for professional trims and to pay the family. We need help to get these babies safe. I literally cried when I got the call. I'm sorry but I am worn out, emotionally and physically. It can be devastatingly heartbreaking as well as rewarding. I have been living in a hot horse trailer for about 10 days. I also have to be able to pay my wonderful folks at the ranch while I am gone. I am going to say yes, and will save these babies, but need your help to make it happen. Thank you in advance for making this possible. All the horses have been adopted from this last rescue. Sally, the long haired Donkey will be staying with me at Chilly Pepper. Her hoofers were horrible and she has major health issues from her lack of care. Thank you for helping with that unique rescue. However, these babies need help today!! I need to get them safely out if this heat. So appreciate ALL you do!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

I don't even know how to write this post. A happy family, a horse trainer by trade, a gorgeous stallion raised from birth - and in a split second - tragedy struck. That horrifying day, their beloved stallion turned without warning, charging and stomping his owner in the face, nearly to death. If his wife hadn't interfered, it would have been over. His injuries were horrific and devastating. After fighting through and conquering life threatening injuries and unbelievable pain, his world would once again collapse. With the craziness today, no financial help was available. On top of that, their home was sold out from under them with no warning from an unethical landlord. With no warning, only days to move, no income and still fighting ongoing, life threatening issues, they had no choice. THEY HAD TO FIND SAFE HOMES FOR THEIR HORSES! This is what rescue is supposed to be about. These amazing people did EVERYTHING right. Yet they were dealt every heartache imaginable. It is obvious that when the choice was there, the horses and animals were cared for first. Now they simply need our help. Chilly Pepper was asked to step up and take on the horses until we can find homes. Some of these horses are well trained, valuable, papered horses and the only money these folks have to survive on is what we can pay for their beloved "kids". I saw them today. We sat and cried and talked about why things happen and having faith that somewhere out there is something better. Trusting God is the only way to survive something so hard. At this point he cannot even step into the pen. The slightest bump could end everything, his injuries are that severe. Let's help at least keep his horses safe. I will be picking them up and getting them vetted before bringing them to NV. We are praying folks will step up to purchase them as there are some wonderful horses available. THE FAMILY WILL BE PAID FOR THEIR HORSES! (We also need to cover vetting, transport, care and feed etc. until they are all re-homed.) Imagine the horse you raised from a baby "snapping" in a single second. On top of that, your income is gone, your heart is broken, and in the struggle to take care of your family and do what is best for your horses, your heart once again is breaking into a million pieces. These horses simply have no where to go. So let's show this family that there is still love out there in spite of all the ugliness. It's time to do everything we can to show love and compassion and keep his horses safe. The tears are pouring once again as I write this. I live with chronic pain, but there is nothing like the pain of not even being able to go and love on your horse. He is struggling so hard to do the best thing for not only his horses, but his family. Please help us help him!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

RARE CHANCE TO SAVE AN OLD, BADLY INJURED STALLION FROM SHIPPING TO SLAUGHTER! DO WE ADD HIM TO THE MIX?  MEET "TONTO" He is beat to snot, old and exhausted. He also has a horrible injury to his leg and needs immediate help. What's one more horse they say??? Ha ha. But he is heartbreaking and needs our help. I was in my nursery and said out loud "no more big horses". This covid thing is wreaking havoc with the rescue world. God laughed and said "Here's a Mule" when He sent me Evie. Now He put Tonto right in front of me. (Shows what I know.) I am willing to take on his care if y'all are willing to save him. TONTO is calling 911. It is such a rare and beautiful opportunity to keep one of these "GRANDPAS" off the truck. It has been so crazy and a bit stressful on these past few rescues, all jammed into one. But I have to be Tonto's voice. Please help us save him. I know this never ends. (Trust me, I am exhausted and need a vacation from the heartbreak and stress.) However, I have to try and save as many of the ones that are put in front of me as we (our Chilly Pepper Family) safely and responsibly can. It is so frustrating to have to continually be trying to raise funds, but what is even more frustrating are the calls that NEVER STOP, and the lives that are continually thrown away. So we do what we have to do. THANK YOU for stepping up and running this race to save them with me! GREAT NEWS! Y'all saved all the babies, the pony, Granny the Donkey and Evie. Yesterday, in spite of the 100 degree heat, our beautiful Evie got her pedicure, and Samantha got her eye stitched up. (At least you can see where your $ go. Y'all are awesome and so very much appreciated.) Upper right corner is the new and improved Evie.

 ANOTHER 911 - WHO DO WE SAVE?, it's UP TO YOU! I am willing to fight for these kids, but they NEED YOU TO HAVE A CHANCE! IT TAKES OUR WHOLE CHILLY PEPPER FAMILY! Granny DOES NOT need to be loaded onto a slaughter truck. She is in horrific shape, but too cute in spite of it all. We\n were notified of the catcher's running and have at least 2 babies, as \nwell as the pony with the face that is now distorted. Her eyes are no \nlonger level, her face seems to be twisted and we know she has a head \nand eye injury. I am on the way to get Evie all fixed up, (had to wait for my truck to be ready), and in the middle of the trip received the 911 call. (Throwing out a quick plea for help from the LQ.) WILL YOU HELP US SAVE ALL OF THEM? Obviously Granny needs alot of help, and hopefully she has no debilitating issues that will keep her from a happy life. YOU decide if we can save them all! Thank you for always being there and saving so many lives. Let's give these beautiful souls the love and care they deserve! They are counting on us. It\n is so frustrating to have to continually be trying to raise funds, but \nwhat is even more frustrating are the calls that NEVER STOP, and the \nlives that are continually thrown away. So we do what we have to do. \nTHANK YOU for stepping up and running this race to save them with me!

MORE HELP still NEEDED FOR EVELYN! THANK YOU for helping us keep her off the slaughter truck. However, EVIE's needs are just beginning. She is now safe at our friend Mama Mel's, and as soon as my truck is ready I will be heading up there. Right now she is slowly decompressing and this is where we start her recovery. Y'all covered her rescue, but we are expecting some big vet bills. We need to do x-rays, and I am extremely worried about all the twisting in her legs. Getting pix of all her feet, sedating her for x-rays & trimming and hiring a qualified trimmer will add up. (She is unhandled as far as I know. That is the information I was given.) Then we still have to get bloodwork, a Coggins & health certificate and bring this beautiful lady home!! There are less expensive ways to get her x-rays and get her trimmed. However, there is no way I am having her roped and thrown on the ground and hogtied. Sedation is more expensive by far, but no one will be putting this beautiful girl through any type of rodeo. She has obviously been through heck and from here forward she will know only love. We have no guarantees of her viability, but for now she is loved and will be treated with the utmost care and kindness. THANK YOU to everyone who has stepped up to help get her to this point, but sadly she still needs more help. Again, we are on the front line and have to save them now. You don't get to choose "how many". It's ALL OR NOTHING!! Thank you for helping us continue saving lives. Below, EVELYN SAYS THANK YOU!

SAVE EVELYN - HER TIME IS RUNNING OUT! ABUSED & READY TO LOAD ON THE SLAUGHTER TRUCK! WILL YOU SAVE HER?  URGENT HELP NEEDED FOR EVELYN! A TRULY HEARTBREAKING 911! Meet EVELYN. (Evie for short). SHE NEEDS US NOW!! Look at those horrific feet. Can you even imagine how much pain she is in? Can\n you see her forced into the slaughter trailer? Being jostled and shoved\n around while the other terrified horses tripped & stepped on her \nfeet? It would be a miracle if she even survived the trip \nto the slaughter house without being knocked down or having her ankle \nbroken. She needs your help RIGHT NOW! We HAVE to save her and keep her out of the slaughter pipeline. The clock is ticking and I need to commit. WILL YOU HELP ME SAVE HER? Sadly,\n Evelyn's outcome may not be what we want. She will require x-rays to \nsee if her coffin bones have twisted. I am praying she will be ok. She \ncertainly deserves every chance. Worst case scenario we are rescuing her for humane euthanasia. However, we have seen LOTS OF MIRACLES! Either way, she cannot get on that slaughter trailer. So please, let's save this beautiful lady. She obviously has not been shown any kind of love or care. The abuse stops today. Thrown away like garbage, let's give her a miracle. PLEASE HELP NOW!! Again,\n we are on the front line and have to save them now. You don't get to \nchoose "how many". It's ALL OR NOTHING!! Thank you for helping us \ncontinue saving lives. Below, EVELYN SAYS THANK YOU!  IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP HELPING US SAVE MORE LIVES, YOU CAN GO TO:

ANOTHER 911 - THEY JUST KEEP COMING!!!! (MANY NEED VETERINARIAN CARE ASAP) Folks came through at the last minute to help us save the 4 beautiful geldings. In addition to the 4 orphans and the big boys, y'all saved an injured mare called "wire cut" and a pony with horrific feet. YOU SAVED THEM - THANK YOU!!! We are right in the middle of this rescue, and bam, the phone rings and we are on "emergency go mode'. We barely squeaked through to save the Terrific Ten, and now we need to save more. We are looking at another 8 minimum IF WE GET FUNDS TO SAVE THEM! The big guys got their blood drawn for their Coggins today. I am heading out tomorrow to prep for the new babies and pick up the horses in WA that are heading to NV. It is simply "THAT TIME OF YEAR" when we have to ask for help almost daily. You can see whose lives you are saving and y'all know where your money goes. THANK YOU for saving the TERRIFIC TEN, but now we need to save these babies and I have to commit asap! PLEASE DONATE NOW AND HELP US SAVE THESE PRECIOUS SOULS! LET'S GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO CELEBRATE THIS 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND. FREEDOM AND LIFE!! Again, we are on the front line and have to save them now. You don't get to choose "how many". It's ALL OR NOTHING!! Thank you for helping us continue saving lives. These horses and the babies need help now! Thank you. The TERRIFIC TEN!

UPDATE - We have 2 orphan foals safe at Mel's, and have enough money to save ONE of the 4. I am hoping the Pandemic is not the reason and that this will NOT be the first time we couldn't save the kids we are fundraising for. It takes roughly $3,000 to save the 3 remaining geldings. (Apparently they are closer to 4 years old.) This includes Bail, Vetting, Transportation, and that just gets them to safety. They still need care and feed until they are adopted, and I have to pay board on them once they are rescued until they are picked up. I am praying this will not be a situation where I need to choose who lives or who dies. I cannot "pick" one or two to save and leave the others to die. This has never happened before. I know things are tight and the world is upside down. I just wanted to let everyone know where we are. I was told if we are lucky we may have until Tuesday. It can change in a moment. If they are not saved they can be loaded at any time. We were asked to help save them, so that is what we are trying to do. Thank you everyone who donated to save the others. So much for a break.... (I apologize if you get this twice - having computer issues) UPDATE - So far we have 2 babies and have been able to raise enough money to save 1 out of the 4 geldings. We got a reprieve, and still have a couple days to raise funds for the last 3. I know I certainly don't want to have to pick which ones we save and who dies. TRAPPER AND SHIPPER CALLED TODAY! These 4 youngsters' need saved now! "TIME HAS RUN OUT". Once again I need to act on faith. We simply cannot let them ship to slaughter. They are babies, approximately 2 years old? (Sorry for the poor quality of the photos, but that was all I had.) I was notified that they will be shipping asap. On top of that there are orphan foals coming in tonight. Again, we are on the front line and have to save them now. Thank you for helping us continue saving lives. These horses and the babies need help now! Thank you.

Thank you so much for your wonderful love and support. Your donations have saved so many lives and make it possible to keep our "special needs" critters safe and happy. Y'all have made such a difference for so many innocent animals. I wanted to take a quick minute (while I had a chance before the next big emergency), to just stop and say "THANK YOU" for all you do! I realize I am always sending out "911"s, but that is what Chilly Pepper deals with. We never have time to calmly plan out our rescues. Time is ALWAYS A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH, and I cannot thank you enough for always stepping up and making sure we can save these beautiful souls. Above is Destiny. Thanks to you, a lot of prayers, TLC and the magical French Clay, she has only the tiniest scar! Big hugs and appreciation!
