a non-profit horse rescue working with abandoned, neglected and abused horses. Stop horse slaughter NOW!

Update: Quixote (August, 2020)

By

Quixote is an Andalusian/Thoroughbred cross who came to Hanaeleh in July, 2013. He was a complete mess when we first got him- he was so completely attached to the other horse we brought with him that he was dangerous- we couldn't even get the horse a few feet from him without him freaking out! Finally we just had to make the decision to separate them completely for everyone's safety. He ran around screaming for about two day straight, and then finally calmed down. We learned after a few months … [Read more...]

Update: Ulysses (August, 2020)

By

Ulysses is an Appendix gelding and he came to Hanaeleh a little over eight years ago! Time flies when you're rehabbing horses! We rescued him from the Riverside shelter on July 21st in 2012. He was scheduled to be put down two days later because he was diagnosed as being neurological. In addition, he was emaciated and it was obvious that he had been severely abused- there were scars and wounds all over his body. It took a long time for Ulysses to learn to trust people again, but now he is the … [Read more...]

Update: Hope and Grace (August, 2020)

By

Hope and Grace came to Hanaeleh in 2018. They are both Arabian mares- Grace was a little over 30 and Hope was in her mid-20s. They had not been cared for well in some time, and were thin and neglected. We were able to provide them with regular food, farrier care and veterinary attention, until they were healthy enough to be adopted out. We had found them a lovely home with a couple who was using them for equine therapy in Malibu. They were doing very well until the Malibu fire in February of … [Read more...]

Update: Ruby (August, 2020)

By

Ruby is a beautiful Thoroughbred who came to Hanaeleh a few years ago because her owner no longer had the money to feed her. She was losing her ranch and other rescues had taken all of her other horses, but none of them would take Ruby. Ruby's future was uncertain so Hanaeleh offered to take her and rehabilitate her. Over the past few years we have rehabilitated Ruby and trained her under saddle. She is a beautiful mover, although she has never been very happy with anything around her ears, … [Read more...]

Immunovet EQ

By

Hanaeleh participated in a short trial, feeding Immunovet EQ fermented wheat germ extract (FWGE) to six of our horses for 45 days. It comes in a powder form, and was easy to add to their grain. Because it is fermented, it is much more stable than other wheat germ options, and has a longer shelf … [Read More...]

L.A. Fires Our hearts have been heavy in watching the destruction of the fires in L.A. and seeing the loss of both property and of life. We know firsthand that evacuations are incredibly frightening and stressful, and the aftermath of an evacuation can be as stressful as the evacuation itself. So … [Read More...]
