Welcome to Tiny Timbers Horse Rescue

AWARDED
THE JOHN HETTINGER
HORSE HEROES OF THE MONTH

DECEMBER 2008

By The National Horse Protection League

    Each year many equines are euthanized.  The reasons are as numerous as the horses themselves.  Maybe it’s due to the horse's age, or perhaps physical maladies.  Often, people become horse owners without fully realizing what it involves or by a horse that is just "too much horse” for their riding ability.  Perhaps the owner cannot afford the financial responsibilities or the physical demands of horse ownership.  Sometimes, the unexpected happens and the person simply cannot care for the horse any longer.  All of these situations breed a sense of hopelessness and frustration.  The owner my believe there is just no other choice for the horse other than having it put down.

    Every year, many horses will also be sold at “sale barns.”  The well-meaning owner often might believe that their horse will go to a loving new home.  Although, this may be true in some cases, a frightening majority of equines that are sold will end up on a truck bound for slaughter.  It is a myth that only old horses go to slaughter for dog food.  This simply is not true. Any horses are fair game for the slaughter house:  foals, pregnant mares, show horses, race horses, no horses are exempt.  In addition, many horses are sold for human consumption around the world.

    We at tiny timbers would like to offer a humane alternative.  If you have an old friend, companion, or "equine child" you no longer can keep for whatever reason, PLEASE think of donating your equine to Tiny Timbers Horse Rescue.  Or, if you know someone who doesn't know about us PLEASE think of us and give that horse a second chance.

    We can Guarantee your horse
medical care, food and shelter. But more importantly, we will provide a good loving home, with kind hands and open hearts to care for all their special needs until the end of their lives.  

    Every horse that comes to the Rescue is seen by our vet within a week of its arrival.

    We can't do it alone.  We at Tiny Timbers constantly need your support either by way of donations of any kind or volunteering your time.  If you can offer anything whether it is materials or time, no matter how much it is, to us it is a big help!
