Horse Rescue Group Needs Foster ‘Parents’, Financial Help
July 8, 2015
A local horse rescue groups is turning to the public with an urgent need for foster homes and financial donations.
Panhandle Equine Rescue in Cantonment needs experienced horse owners to take any one of their special needs facility horses. The PER facility is full and seeking foster homes to make room for a rescue horse. “Jumper” needs to return to the PER facility for treatment, but they are full after taking in six rescue horses during the month of June, according to PER board member Georgia Brazzell.
Under PER policy, no barbed wire is permitted where horses will be fostered and full shelter must be provided. Financial donations are also needed to assist with veterinary care if six rescue horses.
The only horse rescue in Escambia County, Panhandle Equine Rescue was founded by a small group of concerned citizens with a mission to rescue, rehabilitate and provide adoption services for abused, neglected and abandoned equines. PER is authorized by the court system to investigate equine cruelty in Escambia County.
For more information on Panhandle Equine Rescue and how to donate to the organization contact Diane Lowery at rlowery@panhandle.rr.com or visit www.panhandleequinerescue.org to print a foster application.

I have the room but no fence or shed for the horses. I wish i could help!
If you have a few dollars to give, this is a good organization to donate. You money will get to the animals and not to a CEO’s mansion and yacht. Mrs. Lowery and volunteers work hard to save these horses. I wish that I had some land so that I could offer to foster.
