I GO PASS THERE ALMOST EVERYDAY IT IS SO NICE TO SEE THE HORSES GRAZING AND WATCH HOW THEY IMPROVE GOOD JOB TO ALL
Creating the space for the rescue animals is only part of the battle. All rescues must be fed, vetted, and maintained, even in foster care. Please consider going to the Panhandle Equine Rescue website and making a donation or consider being a foster or providing a forever home for a rescued equine.
You can make a huge difference in many animals’ lives.
I hope that everyone knows that Diane Lowery has worked as a certified cruelty investigator and head of the organization with no salary for more years.
Panhandle Equine Rescue (PER) is made up of wonderful volunteers who dedicate resources (e.g. time and money) to ensure that animals, horses especially, who are in need of various levels of care, receive the attention and assistance that they require for rehabilitation. This organization is such a positive ray of light and hope for so many animals that have suffered at the hands of those who either could or simply would not appropriately maintain them. Like the animals they help, these people are amazing and are worthy of laud and adoration. I hope that many will consider supporting PER and its mission to ensure that it can continue its good work!
