PLEASE READ, HORSES GOING TO SLAUGHTER 🚨

Thanksgiving in America approaches, and Christmas is just around the corner.

The end of the year is time for reflection, and also a last ditch chance to do something good for someone else… if you haven’t already.

Last night I received the below photos of horses who will not be spending either holiday at home with their families.

Instead they sit inside the slaughter holding facility, waiting to be shipped across the border to Mexico or Canada where they will be brutally rendered for their meat.

Most of them are draft horses. They come out of the Amish after they can no longer pull plows or wagons.

Spring planting will come, fall harvest has gone, and now there is no reason for their previous owners to keep them any longer. They are being dumped daily into the auction and slaughter pipeline across the country.

They are thought of as broken tools who no longer work.

They are unwanted mouths to feed.

They are cast aside like yesterday’s garbage for a newer and younger versions.

Their life has been hard grueling work and their bodies show the mileage.

The halters or harnesses strapped onto their face show the value placed upon them now— held together with baling twine, rusted metal and fraying nylon rubbing oozing sores into their skin from poor fit.

They’re all going to die and soon…

We had no plans to go back to the slaughter holding facility until December, and it wasn’t until I saw these pictures that it really hit me that some of these horses will spend Thanksgiving hungry, scared, injured and alone. And it will be the last things they know before they die.

I know there’s suffering all around, and I can’t stop all of it… but I could do something about this, with your help.

It’ll be bitterly cold to sit outside on live feeds trying to save these horses but if we don’t try to save them, who will?

I don’t know that I can sit at the table with my family at Thanksgiving, blessed beyond measure as I’m surrounded by loved ones, with food on my plate and love in my heart and NOT think about the horses in the photo.

They have NONE of those things.

They have nothing.

No food, no warmth, no love.

Ally and I made our decision quickly.

We’re going back.

We’re going to try to leave the pen empty this Thanksgiving holiday.

Giving Tuesday might be coming a little earlier this year for CCR.

But what a triumphant thing it would be on Thanksgiving, when this evil place stands empty, and our green fields of quarantine and sanctuary and training are grazed by the tossed aside tools repurposed into wanted and adored friends, companions and loved ones.

What a story it would be…

Of how we all came together and saved the horses, just in time for Thanksgiving day.

Now that would be something worth saying when it’s my turn to say what I’m grateful for…

Consider a $100 or $25 or $1 donation just a week early for Giving Tuesday and change a life forever.

Can’t donate? That’s okay. Please share. A share could mean a life saved. It’s that important.

Who in the photo are you making sure gets Thanksgiving dinner by donating just $25?
