The sanctuary is open to all visitors. The children seem to connect more to the mini horses and donkeys, they aren't so Intimidated by their size, but they also see the larger horses are just as gentle.
Our Needs
This year we're rescued 3 donkeys and 4 mini horses. One of the mini horses came to us pregnant. May 27 Lacy went into labor, labor lasted too long the baby got his foot stuck and tore in Lacy uterus into her intestines. It was heartbreaking, we lost the beautiful baby. By this time Lacy's life was in jeopardy but we were blessed, she pulled through with the help of the vet in Athens. We've also rescued a dog that was dumped close to the property and one stray cat. The duck are having babies right and left, about 100 Moscovy ducks now. We now have 33 horses and donkeys, almost 100 ducks, 2 dogs, 2 guinea pigs, 3 cats.
Sadly to say, we lost Hannah, Golden retriever/ Great Pyrenees mix. Hay delivery left the gate open, she got out then he closed the gate behind. She couldn't get back in so she wondered and has hit by a truck and didn't survive.
We were able to purchased a horse trailer last year. We are still need electricity for all the sheds.
Donations are "very" much needed and appreciated! All donations are spent "exclusively" for the care and maintenance of the animals.
