27 horses where found dead on a San Joaquin woman’s properties. 4 more horses and a bull had to be but down due to the condition they were in. The 16 of the survivors are being taken in by Oakdale Equine Rescue, their expecting 60 more.

The rescue is all ready getting calls to see if the horses are available , they’re not, most of the horses are in triage, they’re evidence in a criminal investigation and they are currently property of the county.

People are also demanding information which is understandable, but they are evidence in an ongoing criminal investigation.

It’s unknown if there’s going to be any more fatalities.

The Rescue is asking for help. Here’s a link directly to their site if you don’t want to find them on Facebook

fic ask game!

✦ what was your easiest fic to write & your hardest?

Thanks for the ask!

I think for easiest - hm. every right thing will find its right place and who told us we'd be rescued both just sort of fell out of me, so I'll say those two!

And for hardest - the crown that nobody knows you wear took over a year and a Lot of moving things around to make it really shine. I'm very, very proud of that fic. And it's still unfinished, but I have to give a shout out to the way that you learn when you fall (and how you get up regardless). In addition to being my longest fic title, it's the longest draft I've ever written. No matter how much of a struggle it is, it's very close to my heart.

For years I've followed the advice of Joe Shelton of TB Friends: Always Remember to Hug Your Horses.

Unfortunately Cody barely tolerates this; every time it's, 'The fuck're you doing, Lady? Get off me.'

GSHM Horse Rescue Raffle

Tombstone Redemption (2023) exclusive mini-keg signed by the attending cast of RDR1/RDR2 and Red Dead Revolver, plus Roger Clark (at a later date).

[100% of proceeds for this piece of entertainment memorabilia will go to a 501c3 non-profit charity horse rescue in Arizona, to help feed and provide vet care to 25+ horses in need]

A dear friend of mine works with this rescue ranch, helping it get through some real tough patches recently. This raffle is meant to support the rescue. It'd mean a lot if y'all checked out the raffle, considered supporting it. Can confirm the barrel itself really cool, I got to see if after the attending cast signed it last year. A+++

Hugs, Kichi

I forgot to post this photo of Yuki from the horse rescue. Like most Shetlands, she is a character and master escaper

Does anyone on here have any experience with Premarin or Nursemare foals? A local lady just bought a six month old filly from an auction or something (apparently ‘saved from slaughter’ and is very kindly going to include me in the process of raising this horse. Her origins are super murky- all I really know is that she’s one of around 150 foals and from Texas. Does anyone have any insight on what I might be able to expect?

And Round Number Two.

Appeal for help:

A mare I once took care of, which was the sweetest horse as long as you spent time with her, has been bred. She has doubtful genetics, the stud used has even worse genetics.

The people that currently own them own a notorious horse-butchering operation (for dog food). It’s all barely legal, the horses get stalled in with pigs, the stable is ill-ventilated and perpetually kept dark.

They have a tiny pasture to share with 30+ other horses (it is continually added to the herd as fattened up horses get taken to the butcher’s block). For forage they get, at best, cow silage, at worst incredibly moldy hay. And no vets get called there, since the old head of the whole operation does not want any strangers on the property.

Most people I have spoken to about this just tell me to call the authorities, but in Austria there is no way to help the horses in this way. As long as they get fed (even with moldy hay), they have shelter (a mud paddock that is just knee-deep mud all year with a few pillars and a tarp over it for shade), water and a stable (to share with pigs) they don’t consider it a matter of urgency.

I would buy the mare and foal from them, just to get them out, but I have my wonderful heart horse to take care of first and foremost. Not to mention that I am only in my twenties and therefore do not have the best income.

I’ll add a picture of the mare and of the foal (born on the 18th of August 2023) in the comments, together with a comparison of the mare from back when I was working with her versus now.

I know this is unconventional, but I’ll be trying my best to get them out of there. However, I will need help, so my friend and I set up a GoFundMe for Sally and her foal, to both post their bail and deal with the extensive vet and farrier care they will both need.

Any help is appreciated, whether through donations or sharing this post.

TL;DR:

A sweet little mare is in need of rescuing from a horse-butcher / puppy mill but for horses. It’s in Austria, and flies under the radar of the law, and there is no legit horse rescue here.
