Let's talk about Animal Rescues

 They are everywhere, and for every kind of animal you can think of.  
Rescues are growing and quickly filling up to overloaded capacity. 


  • Do horses really get shipped for slaughter?
  • Are rescues legit? or just someone making bank?
  • Why do they charge so much?
  • Are the contracts real?
 Yes the auction houses allow shippers to buy 'what's left'. The horses are then transported to Mexico or Canada where they are slaughtered.

 Yes wild horses are rounded up on the native reserves and sold at auctions and to Mexican rodeos. This is a source of income for the tribe. The babies would be left behind to die because they couldn't keep up with the herd. The herd does not return for them. So rescues were formed.

 Yes, horses are bred and in days of old, their babies would be killed so that they could be a substitute mom for Thoroughbred  babies. 
Race horses have specific rules about breeding.
This has been stopped in many places.
We did speak up.

 Yes Mexican rodeos are legal in Washington state. 
We can put a stop to it.
We have to speak up.

 Dogs and roosters are bred for fighting. 
Breeders are the worst!
Something else we can put an end to.
We have to speak up.

Animal abuse is something we the people have the power to put an end to. 
We have to speak up.

Most rescues for horses, dogs, cats and misc farms are LEGIT. Some are not. Visit them. A true rescue allows and encourages visitors. See it for yourself how they care for the animals in their care. 

Why do they charge so much? They are only asking for what they have invested. The rescues take in sick, injured and unwanted animals. They help them heal, restore their faith in humans, and train them towards their full potential. You know what your getting. They have worked with and come to know that animal and it's personality and behavior.

The contract and return policy is for the ANIMALS SAFETY and assurance that they will never SUFFER the trauma that has already been inflicted on their lives. 

We need to ban MEXICAN RODEO'S IN all states.
We need stronger penalties for ANIMAL ABUSE
We can put a stop to the problem
We have to speak up.
