So well said. We wish we could take in every horse, but resources limit us.

Sometimes the best advice we can give is for humane euthanasia and letting the last day be their best day. It’s far better than being starved and frightened on truck bound for slaughter.

Big and small, short and tall, our cattle herd universally approve of orchard grass hay in the morning (all day, really).

It takes a village to take care of the animals and the equipment around here.

First snow of the season…

Lots of hay and warm shelters (if they go in them) keep all our animal friends healthy and happy.

On this Veterans Day, we honor the strength and sacrifice of those who have served.

Rags to Rescues is especially grateful for veterans who rescue and care for animals, giving them a second chance and a safe home.

Thank you for your compassion and service!

Sanctuary friends make the best company!

From family llama walks and neck scratches with Smokey the Zebu, to our Co-founder surrounded by the mini-horses and quiet moments shared between Joe and Mamala.

It’s the simple moments that make this place feel like home.

Times almost up to get your pies and save a horse!

Maybe we didn’t explain it well enough…

…but we want you to know just how much good your purchase of pies and cookie dough from our fundraiser actually does:

*It helps raise needed funds for all the wonderful and worthy organizations involved.

*You get delicious Pies and Cookie dough.

*Businesses around town ‘pie-match’ your purchase and then those pies are given to local organizations who help feed the less fortunate of our community.

It’s pretty much a win, win, win situation and it’s all because of your purchase. 👊👍👏

It’s the final two days to order. Load up those freezers with all the yummy deliciousness of Willamette valley pies and Sweet Treat Girls cookie dough, and help us change both human and animal lives here in Central Oregon this holiday season!

Mr Peaches isn’t a fan of his morning pergolide pill (for Cushing’s Disease). He’s a good patient, though, and lets me slip it in his mouth with little protest.

We have 4 senior horses and one senior mini donkey with Cushing’s disease. We have to get creative to get the pergolide pill delivered. Some will take it hidden in a gel cap in a treat, others accept the direct placement in the mouth.
