Buttons, Bobbins, Beeswax, Doodlebug, Simon & Coro were waiting patiently for us this morning to let them out to play! Don't all these weanling babies just melt your heart?
We loved coming to their rescue, but we need to feed them and provide for all their needs, too.
We are in desperate need of donations to buy hay and grain for the rescued horses. We could really use your help.
Your donations literally make it possible to continue to feed these precious souls who depend on us. Our donations have become so scarce, we have not been able to afford to buy the hay and feed that they need, counting on our personal incomes and savings to cover the loss of donations we have experienced from the beginning of the Covid pandemic and through the various economic hardships we have experienced in the last year. It has been a very challenging couple of years for us, as we lost many donors who could no longer afford to donate, including 2 large donors who passed away and 3 large donors who had financial hardships. We have barely been able to hold on, and the inability to get enough donations to buy hay is telling us we may need to close down our rescue. We are actively seeking loving homes for our healthy and sound rescued horses but the very high hay and feed prices are keeping people from adopting horses. As a result, our adoption rate is way down.
With hay and feed prices continuing to rise into new record highs, the struggle worsens for us. We appreciate all donations, even $2 given by enough people can make a huge impact.
Our usual hay provider has just baled ryegrass round bales for us. Our horses can benefit by having fresh hay for the first time since last summer and more nutrition but the price is still high - $120.00 per round bale. Before the gas and diesel hike and the drought, the same grower's hay was $65 - $85 per round bale. At this time, we are grateful for $120.00 fresh round bales and are desperate to get enough donations to buy them. We can get 50 round bales if we can get enough donations to buy them. Please, please help if you can.
We are 100% donation operated; without your help, we would have to close our doors and PRRHR would no longer exist.
Thank you.
We have a *Donate* button at the bottom of this page.
