UPDATE: Who remembers MayBell that was living on the streets of Carthage Arkansas covered in mange and had puppies hidden in the woods? She was terrified of humans, but her stomach got the best of her one day allowing us to FINALLY catch her. We walked for miles looking for her puppies. We had decided the only choice we had was to let MayBell loose and stake out until she led us to her babies. Knowing it would be triple hard to recapture her we were determined and kept walking. FINALLY a few miles away we spotted her babies curled up in the woods next to a beer bottle. Puppies stayed with her until weaned then found homes, but we were making no lead way with MayBell. It’s been over a year now with little change. She is happy and healthy living with her 2 best friends Enos and Ruby. She does come to the fence now instead of hiding in her house and at times will take a treat from us. MayBell is one that will most likely call us home for life unless major changes are made and she begins to trust humans. She is absolutely beautiful, will never have puppies again, and her mangy skin has healed. She is determined but curious and has learned we will not give up on her. Time will tell, and like we have told her time and time again “take all the time you need”.
This is what it looks like when you rescue horses from the slaughter pipeline and find amazing homes. Not sure who loves who the most the girls or the horses. So many say if a horse is on a slaughter lot it’s for a reason. We have rescued 100’s over the years giving them a 2nd chance. We have received many unhealthy equine over the years, meaning their owners did not properly care for them so dumping at auction for a quick buck is what happens. The equine world is wicked and so unfair to so many horses. Their life’s matter. Most make full recovery once proper care is given but many are not that fortunate. Old injuries not taken care of when the injury occurs can lead to major issues and lameness. Please be kind to all animals. They feel pain just like humans
Dixie Dog and Duck joined in on our equine Christmas party. Dixie is a rescue that was adopted by Danny. She’s now a queen not a pup on the streets. Santa and The Grinch stopped by to make sure the herd received carrots, apples, and treats. Midnight was ready as always. Merry Christmas from MMAR Rescue Herd
Talk about some happy kittens. We let them out into their new room today for a test run to see what they thought. After meeting each other the fun began. They were tons of help to Mandy while putting their climbing tower together. They now have room to run and fun to be had
16 years of animal rescue and MMAR has NEVER had a naughty list for Christmas until this year. Just a few reminder pictures of a few items Pickle has shoplifted this year. We are doing our best to raise her, but have NEVER in all our years met a girl like her. Shoplifting, bossy, arguing, and the list goes on and on. We ask her daily “What are we going to do with you Pickle?”
MMAR is currently caring for 64 dogs. So many amazing animals looking for a home to call their own.

Thanksgiving 2024 was a blast for our rescue animals. Many memories made and happy animals. Homemade cupcakes were added to this party and the animals loved them. We ended our party a little early due to Mandy had to go to Little Rock to meet with doctor about Whoopi. We will be posting an update on her soon.
We are a day early but wanted to make sure we all wish Larry a very Happy Birthday. Over the years Larry has volunteered his time to help rescue animals in need. We thank him for his heart and for all he does to help MMAR. Larry has a special vibe when it comes to animals meaning they all feel safe and loved by him. Thank you Larry and we hope you have the best birthday ever.
UPDATE:WHO remembers Mischief we rescued from the slaughter pipeline in February 2022?He is now know as Mr Bentley and loving life with his new family in Texas. We hear he is a sweet boy that loves to follow his gal wherever she goes.
September 24 2024 is the night we picked BabyFace up from her street life. Dumped and sick she had almost given up her fight. Once we had her caught Mandy and Paula told her it would all be okay and relax. The fight was theirs now and they would not let her down. At first she was terrified and tried to bite us, but shortly after she was taking treats from our hands. She now meets us at the gate with a wagging tail and today even a smile. 1 month and 2 days has made a completely different life for her. She makes sure she lets us know how much she appreciates us and also wants to thank our supporters for supporting MMAR so we can purchase medication. Babyface has not seen our vet yet but will soon for her rabies vaccination. MMAR makes sure to keep medication on hand for animals like BabyFace so we can start medical treatment immediately. Some may disagree with us not taking her to the vet immediately, but please understand over the years our vets have taught us so much, and we know when emergency vet is needed. We do our best to save donor’s donations. We knew the meds she needed, started as soon as we got her settled, and she is improving as each day arrives. She is a beautiful sweet girl
When we receive videos like these it makes our hearts smile. MMAR rescued this mare from the slaughter pipeline. Her new owner says she is perfect and the biggest question is why would anyone send her to slaughter. So many horses are over looked never given a chance, and never rescued before the ship date. Dropped at auction for a few quick dollars then into the hands of the person that will load them on a trailer to Mexico. The Equine world has to be the most evilness world there is. Very depressing world to be in, but seeing videos like this one helps us to see the beauty of equine
