Rescue Story

Going across Texas to rescue horses is a pretty typical day for us. The call came from south Texas. A horse had been seized by law enforcement from a possible drug trade. He is probably a bit older than 5 years of age and gentle for a stallion. After spending several days at the local animal shelter while officers waited to see if anyone would respond to a stolen horse notice, they had to make the decision about what to do with him. Their choices were either auction or us – Habitat for Horses. They made the right choice and gave us a call. If he had gone to auction, the risk of him being going to a slaughter house would have been magnified ten-fold.
