It's been quite some time since posting. No one here has been sitting on the sidelines that's for sure but over the last few months efforts were focused on other areas of rescue and helping others where we could with their rescues and rehabilitation.
As of very recent, it was brought to my attention a situation of a senior mare that found herself in a bad spot. It's never an deal situation for any horse let alone a senior. On top of her age working against, poor girl has something going on that has her labeled lame on the front. I couldn't upload her video but I'm sure many of you have seen it posted on Stroud's page and if not, please feel free to jump on there and have a look.
After discussing the horses predicament with a trusted friend and fellow rescue, I offered to try to see what coukd be done before her ship date, 1/27/25. This horse is being offered NO MORE REPRIEVES. It's a speak now or forever hold your peace situation so I'm gonna speak.
I'm reaching out to friends, family, and like minded individuals to see if anyone is willing to assist in getting this mare out of the lot and home to Phoenix Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation LLC as soon as possible so that she can be evaluated and cause of her lameness addressed.
A pool has been set up specifically for this mare and 100% of the funds contributed to the pool will go towards her purchase price ($750) and should anything exceed that amount it will roll over into transport fee and after care.
There are 3 ways to contribute 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

There's been no goal amount set. I'm blessed with any amount of help that would be sent and it's certainly not expected or assumed any will come in. However, should contributions be made, updates will be posted regularly to let everyone know the progress being made.
Thank you everyone for taking the time and consideration to help out this poor girl. She's on borrowed time and a wing and prayer right now.
Please feel free to reach out with any questions via msger.

I've been a little laxed with my posting lately but I've been meaning to get this sweet little gem formally introduced.
Everyone, please say hello to our newest resident, Cheyenne ❤️
Little Miss Cheyenne has only been with us for about a month but has settled in nicely. The first week was pretty rough for her mentally and emotionally but she's made such amazing progress in the short time she's been here.
As much as I'd love to go into details regarding Cheyenne's story and how she found her way to us, I'm going to refrain from the details as a courtesy to the former individuals that were responsible for this horse. Which to be quite honest, really don't deserve any courtesy in my opinion especially knowing now what I know to be true as far as the physical and mental treatment of this horse.
Moving forward, leaving the past in the past and looking towards a brighter future, Cheyenne does have some emotional hurdles we're helping her overcome. She's a tough little girl with a heart of gold and so much love to give and we're showing it's ok to let herself be loved, it's ok to make mistakes, and it's ok to have an "off" kind of day.
Cheyenne had gone from being a step up horse for a child, yes.... a child and a previous owner trusted this horse with a child (I'm just putting things into perspective here) but she was a little too forward moving. That was her only flaw and really it isn't a flaw at all. She was then sold to a home where her expectation was to be a safe trail horse. Her story should have ended there with a future full of adventures and bliss. In less than 2 weeks the horse must have transformed into a fire breathing dragon that resulted in her arriving here a cowering, trembling, mess due to physical pain and fear. Enough said on that note before my mouth gets me into trouble.
Our promise to Cheyenne is help her overcome her trauma. The physical pain is gone, the mental and emotion pain is not but every day she she improves with showing more trust with human touch and she's regaining the confidence in herself that was lost. She's not being forced, or expected, to be something she's not ready to be. But the signs are there daily that she's letting her guard down and is ready to put her best foot forward. She has a beautiful mind and a beautiful heart and I have zero doubts that this little horse will bounce back and shine brighter than she ever has before. She shows the NEED to be loved on, to interact with people, and to be useful. Her personality is sweet, soft and gentle, and she truly aims to please.
Cheyenne is going make a wonderful addition to the life of someone with a gentle hand and heart made just for her. She deserves that and nothing less.
She will remain at Phoenix until her person comes along. She has a safe place here and a place to call home until her time is right.
Welcome to the family Little Miss Cheyenne. We are honored to have you join our herd. ❤️

The Fall Generosity Campaign is underway here at Phoenix Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation LLC!

Our ultimate goal here at the rescue is making sure that the horses that come into the facility can one day find their forever home after a successful rehabilitation, mind and body.

We are merely a stepping stone between the situation they come from to a better place and loving family that every horse deserves.

Some horses do not recover from past experiences and trauma. Here at Phoenix, they are provided with the resources, understanding, and love to help them along their road of recovery but the fact of the matter is some horses reach a point where whete they have no more try left in them. They are a shell of a horse with a broken spirit, battle scars on their bodies and their hearts, and no emotions left to give. At Phoenix Rescue, this is acceptable. This is a judgement free environment. We have zero expectations of the horses that come here except 1,and that is to do the best THEY can.

A handful of horses here will remain until their end and endless green pastures call them home. These are our sanctuary horses. Their needs and maintenance increase as time goes on but their worries never will. And that is the promise that was made to them the day they stepped off that trailer and walked through our gate.

We don't flip horses here. We don't take in horses that seem to have a "quick turn around time" and can be pushed out the door after their recovery. Each horse that comes in is it's own unique situation and it takes time, encouragement, and understanding throughout their rehabilitation in hopes they find their place with someone who deserves and appreciates their and companionship.

As 1 horse leaves to continue their best life with a new family another will take its place. The uncertainty is always there as to whether or not this new horse will be able to overcome their past and heal. Again, that is our goal here at the rescue.

We ask for assistance and generosity here and there to help with the necessities for the sanctuary horses. When assistance is given it enables us to keep our open door policy available to another equine in need and provide the cares and attention necessary to get that horse back on its feet and headed in the right direction. Without the love and support of our friends and family throughout the years we would not have been able to continue doing what we do. We couldn't offer a soft landing to horses that are put in compromising situations. It's not the space that is limited here at the rescue but it's the resources that are.

No, we are not a nonprofit and nor will we be in the future. We are a small, privately ran and mostly self funded facility try to change the lives of at risk equines. We certainly don't do this for the money because there is no financial gain in what we do here. It's really a financial loss with each horse and that is the reality of it so there's no point in trying to sugar coat it or jazz it up. We do what we do for the love of the HORSE. The rewards are not measured in monetary gains, they are measured in seeing something that was once so very broken rise up out of those ashes and become something magnificent and stronger than it ever was. Even if that means they remain on the farm here or find their place with their forever heart human.

Please find it in your hearts to help us keep doing what we do. A little goes a very very long way and despite what some folks say about it never being enough, or saving 1 horse won't make a difference... The herd here at Phoenix Rescue is proof they're wrong. Each life here and for each horse that has come through our door was given a 2nd chance and it changed that horses life and did make a difference to each and every one of them.

Vet Day Today!
Chance, Ember, and Cheyenne are coming unglued with excitement 🤣 Not so much...
Chance is our Super Senior sanctuary resident. Poor boy has to have another extraction today. His diet has been primarily mash for over a year now. He hates it but tolerates it as it's his forever normal now.
Mr Ember will also be having his teeth checked again. He's not an oldie but when Ember came to Phoenix he had a number of issues going on with his mouth so a re-eval is on the books for him today.
And then we have the newest member, Little Miss Cheyenne. She's only been here a few weeks and didn't come from the pens but unfortunately for this girl, she sustained some physical and mental trauma that warrants an eval. I will not go into detail on that at this time but she's been getting alot of love and attention with only 1 expectation... Take a breath and enjoy just being a horse ❤️
*** Updates will follow in regards to Cheyenne and what her future may hold for her. Once she's been thoroughly evaluated it will be decided then what she is best suited for. If a rest and reprieve is all that's needed, this little tank of a horse will be available for homing. Intermediate rider with a SOFT & GENTLE hand, trail riding home would be best for her.

What puts a horse in the category of being considered a sanctuary horse? I've seen this debate being bounced back and forth quite a bit lately. Of course everyone has their own thoughts and opinions and each rescue or private owner has different standards.
Phoenix Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation LLC evaluates each horse that comes under our care. Each horse poses it's own unique situation and challenges and we don't have a standard/generic check list that puts a horse in the category of "sanctuary". After a horse goes through the rehabilitation process, whether is physical rehabilitation for being emeciated, injuries that need vetting and time to heal... Or it may be mental and emotional rehabilitation because the horse was previously handled harshly or kept in isolation and forgotten about. Our goal here is to fix the broken, give them a solid foundation for a new future and help make a connection between that horse and a family who can offer a second chance of being loved and appreciated. We are only a stepping stone that helps bring an unwanted and forgotten horse back into the light of a brighter future.
The harsh reality is not all horses can be fixed. With some horses we reach a plateau because the damage and trauma was just too much to overcome so now we must maintain what the end result is. Sometimes the end result is chronic lameness due to old injuries, possibly a debilitating disease that wasn't diagnosed initially due to the horses poor condition upon intake, or the horse has been deemed dangerous or aggressive towards humans despite our efforts with emotional therapy.
What then is to be done in these types of situations? Send the horse down the road to first taker, pass this horse off to someone under false representations, perhaps take it to the next auction and run it through the loose horse sale. These are all options and honestly easy ones with minimal effort and cost effective too since it would decrease my feed bill and my physical demands. However, these are NOT good options and my personal opinion is they are lazy options and it would make me no better than the person that put the horse in jeopardy to begin with. When we make the commitment to a horse, it's 100% commitment. Our expections of that horse are only to do the best they can with the help and resources we provide them. Miracles do happen yes, but we never expect that. Is there that special person out there for each and every horse that was once battered, abused, and forgotten. Absolutly there is! But in reality some horses just don't find that person who's willing to take on the life long commitment of a high maintenance or special needs horse. It can be labor intensive and extremely exspensive, not to mention emotionally draining. Maybe it's just me and maybe I'm warped in my way of thinking but once upon a time I was broken, in heart and mind, and a horse took a chance on me, put the broken pieces of my life and heart back together, and changed me for the better. I owe a debt to the horse. Not just 1 horse in particular but to all horses. And if sanctuary, kindness, and understanding is what is needed then they will receive it here with no judgement for as long as they need it.
Please consider supporting our efforts in continuing to provide for our sanctuary residents. Your generosity goes towards the basic needs of our super senior gelding and and the few others that call Phoenix their home. Chance, Onyx, Denali, and Misty Blue have a place to call home until the end. Will there be others? It's very possible and we want to be able to be an option for any horse that needs that stepping stone or for that horse that just can't quit win the battle. We can't continue to do this on our own without the support. Your kindness and generosity means more than you know and helps in more ways than you can imagine.

All I can say is... Where did the summer go?! It's seems like just a short time ago I was pulling on my winter boots and dressing in layers to go out and do horse chores. Now here I am prepping and planning to do just that again.
As we head into the season of leaves changing to beautiful colors, pumpkin spice, and crisp autumn mornings, it's indeed a reminder why I love Wisconsin and it's also a reminder of what is to come. 🥶🥶🥶
Our Sanctuary residents, most of which are seniors, have taken another trip around the sun. With age comes increased needs and with the colder months creeping up, comes changes to their dietary needs. This summer we were blessed with abundant pastures and a hay supplier that has a love for horses. I'm happy to say that our winter hay needs have been met and I can take a breath in regards to that. The next hurdle in our path is obtaining the supplemental feeds that take the place of lush green pastures for some of our harder keepers and special needs horses.
This generosity campaign is put in place specifically for them. The residents here at Phoenix Animal Rescue & Rehabilitation, myself included, would be so blessed and appreciative to anyone that is willing to assist us in getting our winter feed supply ball rolling. Please consider sending a gift to help us out.
Honestly we are not choosey on brands and order our feeds from Chewy, Tractor Supply, and Fleet Farm as these retailers either offer discounts when orders are placed online or when purchasing in quantity. Most often the store brands are purchased as these do meet the nutritional needs of the horses and really don't very much from you big name brands but it also keeps costs low which in turn helps financially with the necessary cares such as vetting, farrier work, and routine dental and deworming.
Please consider making a gift and know that it helps tremendously and helps keeps our "open door" policy available to horses in need.

ATTN: TEXAS FRIENDS & FAMILY
Share! Share! Share!
I know this pup is a long way from our home base here in Wisco but I'm asking everyone to SHARE this post in hopes of this being seen far and wide. Dear friend down in TEXAS is giving this boy a safe place to rest until his owner can be located.
Young male Pit was found wandering in Sugarland Texas on 8/19/24. He's been checked for a chip and unfortunately no such luck. This boy is very well mannered, friendly, looked to have been well taken care of and wearing a grey collar but with no tags.
Someone has got to be missing this sweet boy very much.
My friend can NOT keep this dog but can only offer a safe place for him temporarily.
Please call the number listed if you recognize him or msg us with any information regarding who he may belong to.

The reasons why we do what we do. The reasons why we keep putting our best foot forward. At the end of the day, despite the blood, sweat, and tears, if it means we changed the life of a horse and filled the hearts of a family who absolutly adores and appreciates him... It makes everything worth the efforts and struggles.
Joey, formally Apollo, came to us in September 2022 as an unhandled yearling stud c**t. Sick and underweight, he spent some time in Oklahoma recovering and adjusting to life as a gelding. He made his way up to Wisconsin the following spring and immediately started his journey through a 90 day training program. Many took an interest when it came time to start looking at potential homes but Apollo took an special interest to a family, more specifically an interest Kinsley, who Apollo decided was to be his little heart human. There was an instant bond that was formed and the rest is history ❤️
Kinsley and Joey are certainly going places and their future is so bright and my heart could not have any fuller when I received an update this past saturday. Joey and Kinsley entered into their first event together, pole bending, and it was the very first time Joey had been introduced to this event, let alone the visual of poles. Both horse and rider did an amazing job and there was zero hesitation from Joey under Kinsley guiding him through the pattern. The bond and level of trust is very strong between the 2 and I truly believe this horse would do anything asked of him by his human.
Moments like this and the happiness that comes with them outweigh the darker days that come with rescue. Every day there's challenges and mountains to climb. In the end it's worth it.
Wholeheartedly I want to say Thank You to Kinsley and her mother Patti for taking a chance on the little wonky c**t. With their love, kindness and understanding, and dedication they continue to transform Joey and help him reach his full potential. Your future is bright and I can't wait to see where the road takes you. ♥️

We don't just rehab horses here... 😳
These little buggers tick me off to no end! They tunnel through my yard, they leave holes everywhere, and lordy forbid the chewy delivery and horse feed doesn't get put away almost immediately it becomes a buffet for these little undesirables. BUT... I have a heart and soft spot for all living creatures big or small, especially babies. Pretty sure the community cat found mamma and these guys were scattered all over the driveway and it was the blind leading the blind. Literally. Wildlife rehab is nothing new at Phoenix but feedings every 2 hours for 5 Littles wasn't really something I planned on this weekend but I guess there's been a change in plans. 🤷🏼‍♀️
