UDATE: 5/13/24- We took the mares to their new home on Sunday! It’s a beautiful place and they will be taken care of for the rest of their lives there! They won’t be ridden, but just will be companions to each other and will enjoy their retirement! It’s so wonderful that people are willing to help others in need! Thank you again to everyone who helped make this happen!
UPDATE: 5/10/24- We have found a wonderful home for the two lovely mares, and they are SAFE! We will take them up to their new home on Sunday, where they can wander around several acres along with some donkey friends.We are so thankful that there are people who offered to take these girls! Thank you again to everyone who shared their story!
UPDATE: 5/6/24- Moon has found a lovely new home, but we desperately need homes for the two mares. If you know of anyone who might be able to take them, please let us know, or if you are able to take them, please fill out our horse inquiry form! Thank you!
We received a call from a woman about three Quarter horses in Norco who need immediate rescue. The owner passed away from cancer, and the husband does not want the task of caring for the horses so his plan was to take them to auction. We are trying to work with him to get the horses safe before they are sent to auction and an uncertain end.
The horses have not been ridden in several years because the owner was sick. They have been fed, but they look like they need some grooming and TLC. They are all barefoot. The owner’s husband said that they trailered in well but it has been several years since they were trailered. They both need their feet trimmed at this point.
We have been trying to work with the owner to get the horses placed, but we have had a lot of issues with people not returning phone calls or not showing up and the owner is getting frustrated- we really need to find homes for these two. If you are interested in helping Holly and/or Bear, please fill out our horse inquiry form and we will get you in contact with the owner. We are really hoping someone will help these two souls.
Holly
Holly is a 25 year-old dun AQHA mare. She was ridden around Norco but it has been several years since she was ridden. The owner said she was very peppy under saddle when she was younger. She is Mr. Moon’s dam. She is barefoot.
Bear
Bear is a 30 year-old dark gruella AQHA mare. She was also ridden around Norco, but it has been several years since she was ridden. She is also barefoot.
Again, if you are interested in these two, please fill out our horse inquiry form and we will get you in contact with the owner. Please share!
