Horse Rescue Haven Expands Its Charitable Mission to Help Prevent Neglected and Abused Horses in America
Horse rescue non-profit charity, Horse Rescue Haven, expands its mission (beyond rescuing and caring for neglected and abused domestic horses on its Northern Nevada ranch) to include a comprehensive national preventative program to help prevent and reduce the incidence of these distressed horses, since there simply are not enough horse rescue organizations and facilities to care for the unprecedented need nationwide.
Sparks, NV, January 29, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Babette “Babs” Clough, the Executive Director of Horse Rescue Haven explains...
“There are thousands of neglected and abused domestic horses nationally; which is a terrible waste of the most regal member of our traditional-American-family, who selflessly helped us discover and develop our country."
"Today, they have become too costly for economically-distressed families, who are unable to sell them. So what do they do? It is illegal to destroy a healthy horse, so horses are now being secretly destroyed and buried, shipped to foreign countries for meat, released into the wild to face certain death or they remain with families who cannot, or will not, properly care for them. These are fates no horse deserves."
"Without our intervention, I fear hundreds of additional horses will rapidly be added to this endangered population. They face a miserably lonely existence, at best, and starvation and death, at the worst. There simply aren’t enough horse rescue organizations across the country to care for these horses. Prevention is the only answer. It has become obvious Horse Rescue Haven has to act to help save and improve the lives of horses, by taking this important initiative."
"Imagine not having enough food, water; let alone satisfactory medical and emotional support. Once we learn about a needy horse, they are usually emaciated, can hardly walk, have parasites, major skin and digestive problems. Government takes care of wild mustangs, but very little is done to protect and save domestic horses from neglect and abuse."
Mrs. Clough said...
“Horse Rescue Haven is a Nevada-based government-approved charity dedicated to directly supporting neglected and abused horses on its facility in Nevada, but now we are expanding our mission with an urgent national campaign to…
- Educate opinion leaders and the general public about the plight of horses and to help prevent their mistreatment.
- Help uneducated potential horse owners understand a horse's total needs and expenses, compared to other pets; to forestall unwise future adoptions.
- Promote the donation of unwanted horses to those who can afford them.
- Help fund horse rescuing activities.
"These are critical missions we are well suits to help accomplish, since our founders and directors have decades of national expertise supporting major issues."
Mrs. Clough went on to explain...
“Horse Rescue Haven relies on the assistance of others, who share our heart-felt love for horses. We appreciate their financial contributions, and donations of hay, grain, etc. Those willing to help can contact us on the Internet at horserescuehaven.com with their comments and offers of assistance."
