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.
(306)

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.

SIMPLY AN UPDATE ON THE LAST PONY:
Our shipper is on her way to PA now. She will pick up the ponies and drive through the night and arrive early tomorrow morning. I am only mentioning this because we have raised $310 towards her bail.
I am hoping that the last $375 will come in for the last filly to join her herd.

HACKNEY 2YRO. STUD C**T WHO IS SAID TO HAVE A GOOD TEMPERAMENT. (HE WILL HAVE HIS OWN ROOM HERE!)

He has been named after a much-loved TB, "Arctic Heat," who was much loved by his owner, Denise, as well as all who knew and cared for him.
Archie will be humanely laid to rest soon due to age and progressive health issues.

These are 2 weanlings still left at "Before the end of the line"l When I asked why there is such an abundance of babies being dumped, this was the answer:
Yep, no hay down here. Rained till July and then right into a solid drought!
We have no hay here, and what you can buy is over the moon expensive- everyone’s dumping.

Gerda: So no hay and no water, we can hopefully take 3.🤞

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!
