An acquaintance of mine has a horse rescue down in Alabama. You can vote for her rescue (or one of your choosing!) at http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/clickToGive/shelterchallenge.faces?siteId=3
The votes help allocate available funds to the different rescues.
the rescue I am voting for is Dusty trails horse rescue.
If you look at the new arrivals page, scroll to the bottom...how sad is that little yearling, with the "bed sores" and bony protrusions. There are many sad stories on her page, and Monica looks after all the horses pretty much by herself.
It is a tough situation in the US with high hay prices in many regions, high unemployment, and no "buyer of last resort" with slaughter no longer available in the US, so it is good that there are people like this to help the horses.
I worry that we will see more skinny horses around Edmonton with hay prices what they are this year. I am slightly relieved that our neighbours seem to be feeding their horses hay this year, so hopefully hillside won't have to feed them again this year.
