Gerdas Equine Rescue Inc.

Gerdas Equine Rescue Inc. We are a 501(C)3 non profit, committed to rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming at risk equines.
(307)

Our commitment also extends to helping horses at risk by intervening before they get sent to auction. This means helping owners by giving them advice and tools to be better equipped to find a good solution for their horses. We network with other like minded rescues to help each other succeed in our mutual goal of creating a safer world for America's horses. When we have the room we will always try

to take in desperate horses that are not yet in the slaughter pipeline. We focus on public education which includes programs for school children who come to our rescue to help by volunteering weekly and learn of the plight of rescue horses.

GOOD NEWS MORNING:
Today Bloom will be here at about 11 am, and he has picked up 2 hitch hikers!
They were kill pen ponies that were rescue at auction by a young woman with a kind heart, but she did not have the means to give them the medical care they need.
One is a coming yearling who is still a stud and has an umbilical hernia that we need to address asap. His rescuer did a good job of gentling him while he was with her, and now he can move forward with his life...look at how adorable Bernie is!
The buckskin paint,Trixie is said to be 15yrso and rides. Our vet will be here on the 3rd of the new year and we will know more about them then.
The great thing for us is they don't need to be in QT as they have been with their rescuer for several months. But we will still do SAA tests on them to be sure they are not harboring anything contagious.

Our senior mini ELSA had the misfortune of having her eye rupture! The pain building up the the rupture had to have been horrific, however she did feel relief once it burst, so yesterday she went to the Rood And Riddle Clinic in Saratoga and got treated and spoiled by their wonderful staff of doting vet techs.❤

Elsa will have a much happier Christmas now.

PIRATE FOR ADOPTION A SHORT CLIP OF PIRATE THE PONY BEING RIDDEN ON A LEADLINE. AND READY FOR A HOME!

Laurie has had several adoption applications! However we are holding out for a home with another donkey, for her to be totally happy! She so deserves that, she LOVED it when we had Penelope here, but she left for training at Horses with Hope leaving Laurie alone again. Laurie is the best donkey we have ever had, and we wait for the perfect home.

Our Story

The plight of the helpless equines being sent to slaughter by the thousands every week is heartbreaking! Once in the slaughter pipeline their fate is pretty much sealed. Still, we have been able to rescue many who were at that point. We promise each one we save to be very careful and protect them from falling into that situation ever again.

Our commitment also extends to helping all equines at risk by intervening before they get sent to auction. This means helping owners by giving them advice and tools to be better equipped to find a good solution for their horses. We network with other like minded rescues to help each other succeed in our mutual goal of creating a safer world for Americas HORSES, MULES AND DONKEYS! When we have room we will always try to take in a desperate equines that are not yet in the slaughter pipeline. We focus on public education which includes programs for school children who come to our rescue to help by volunteering weekly and learn the plight of the voiceless equines they help us with. They learn compassion, caring and how to treat animals with dignity.

These children are the next generation of advocates for all animals, we depend on them today, to learn what they need to know when their tomorrow comes!
