Draft horses comprise the smallest percentage of the US horse population, yet they are grossly overrepresented in the number of horses being shipped for slaughter every year. Born into communities who see no soul behind the eyes of these gentle horses, they endure horiffic neglect, living lives of servitude until their powerful bodies and gentle spirits are broken. Even emaciated and feeble, their huge bodies are a prize to the vicious meat men who line their pockets, getting paid by pound of flesh.

With you by our side, we can magnify our efforts to end the brutality and agonizing misery for these precious, sentient beings. Healing the physical and mental wounds of their past is both an arduous and profoundly rewarding experience. The sheer resilience and will to live despite the horrors they’ve faced is a testament to their strength and courage, and we are honored to be a part of their recovery.
