*** By joining us for any of our equine activities or becoming a fan of our site you are supporting our business. This support ensures that these rescued animals will have a good and healthy home, and avoid the gruesome transport to a meat processing plant in Canada or Mexico. These trips are usually very inhumane and many horses arrive dead or crippled to their final destination. Most of our hors
es have been rescued an/or taken from unfortunate circumstances such as owner surrenders or slaughter auctions. Funded strictly from our own pockets, we rehabilitate these animals, provide them with the necessary nutrition, health care and attention, and depending on the horses' performance we provide them with a permanent home here with us or selectively adopt them out to great, local homes in the area. Most of our working crew, that consists of a mix of quarter horses, appaloosas, paints and drafts, come from the New Holland Auction Stables, in New Holland, Pa. This auction is known to be the largest kill auction east of Mississippi. Most of the horses that you see on the Adirondack Horse Rescue site will not be able to be used to their fullest potential due to minor and major health concerns, issues with conformation, personality or reasons of long term maintenance under the supervision of a veterinarian. We will use this site to inform you of adoptable horses,post health related videos, events during which you can meet us and the horses and useful notes. We have over 36 horses that would appreciate a helping hand or two!
*We are not a not-for-profit corporation* as we support our horses strictly out of our own pockets. We do not write nor solicit other organizations for grants. Everything we do, we accomplish with our hands, out of our own finances by offering a variety of equine related activities.*
We are are also known as The Adirondack Equine Center, where we run everything that is horse related. You can visit our sister facebook site here:
