Good day guys, we have come to a point where we need our community and supporters to please step in and up with financial support - we are going through a very difficult time as the number of reports and rescues has quadrupled to infinity and beyond.

We are forced to reconsider so many options and that includes our future.

Stables:
We have to adopt horses out as soon as possible. The labour is extremely intense and the cost are absolutely just cutting our throats leaving us with with expenses as follows:
* Percentage for one month - R21500
* Roughage for one month depending on availability and price - between R27000 and R35000
* Shavings R2800 per week, R11200
* Salaries for stable staff R12000
* Cleaning detergents and Cooper's fly control program R5700 per month
* Farrier costs - anything between R6400
* Medical Costs, all depends on needs - R6500 currently outstanding outstanding at Cape Vet, R25700 at Equisepps.
* Deworming and parasite control - R3200

Kennels and cattery:
* All depends but about 280kg per month, soft food puppy milk and list goes on - between R8160 at its best to R12000
* Staff labour water, cleaning detergents, all and everything from zero to hero - R8500
* Medical care, outstanding bills of over R21000
Remember kennels and cattery are also full time job 🫣

Farmyard:
* Cattle x 2, pigs x 7, sheep x 5, goats x 4, geese, ducks and the list goes on (chickens are providing income for themselves so no cost here)
* Cost including salaries and cleaning, deworming and list goes on - R12500

All other regular expenses including diesel rent and all - R55000

Over R120,000 which we just about cover but some months run short - hence the call we have to make. Just some useless information, Pierre and myself are voluntary workers with our monthly needs taken care of by Puddleduck School and Day-care Centre / Learning centre owned by Hazel Rhenoster with basic groceries and other necessities. We have a humble little Wendy we call home and live there with all the rescue dogs and cats that have free access and warm. Why? Because we want to leave the world a better place and leave a legacy of true love, commitment, care and kindness - personally from my side: "I'd rather die a beggar than to beg at Heaven's door - those lyrics of Josiah Queen is my anthem, my hope, my Creed"

Listen to that profound song on this link:
https://youtu.be/9ACjpmpoPVE?si=yaYSgIY8t_HJqK99

You can't love your money and also love the Lord
I've tried before, I'll die before I'd try again
You can't gain fame and it ever satisfy
I've done and tried, it numbed me right down to my bones
It's impossible
It's impossible
I would rather die a beggar than to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges, I didn't need 'em anyways
If no one's riding with me then I'll travel on my own
I'd rather lose the world before the world could gain my soul
I've tried to earn His love but I really dug a hole
The night got cold, a mortal soul can't bear that cross
My hands are red and I am guilty of a multitude of sins
Without the cover of His blood
It's impossible
It's impossible (ooh)
I would rather die a beggar than to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges, I didn't need 'em anyways
If no one's riding with me then I'll travel on my own
I'd rather lose the world before the world could gain my soul
It's impossible
To gain the world and have your soul
I would rather die a beggar than to beg at heaven's gates
Pack the car and burn the bridges, I didn't need 'em anyways
And if no one's riding with me then I'll travel on my own
I'd rather lose the world before the world can gain my soul (mm)
When I die a beggar and I walk through heaven's doors
All the evils of this rotten world, traded for a home
You can go there with me and you'll never be alone
You gotta lose the world before the world can gain your soul

Another type of complaint that Glen-Graze Rescue Sanctuary, as a VOLUNTARY TEAM, attends when we receive calls of horses being chased around. The owner was located and never gave permission for the horse to be removed from his enclosed yard.

Why not help us as a VOLUNTARY TEAM and consider a monthly donation to cover fuel and resources in upholding the care and wellbeing of our local animals?

Any donations towards our budget will be greatly appreciated and can be made to:
* Glen-Graze Rescue NPC
* FNB business Account
* Account number 62910283027
* Branch code 250655
* Reference: "BUDGET" and your cell number if possible so we can at least send a deep and honest message of appreciation!

What you are looking at is what we face on almost a daily basis.

The condition is called tick bite fever, the fancy learned name is called Ehrlichiosis. Ehrlichia is caused by the Ehrlichia blood parasite and transmitted by infected ticks (tick-borne disease) to dogs when an infected tick bites them.

The first stage is called the acute phase and includes symptoms like loss of appetite, fever, vomiting, diarrhea, and a lethargic dog. If left untreated the acute phase changes to the chronic phase and includes symptoms like coughing, nasal discharge and bronchopneumonia. According to the Animal Protection Act, it is seen as abuse if you notice your puppy in need of a veterinarian, but does not take him to the nearest clinic or vet for treatment.

Treatment includes antibiotics that will kill the Ehrlichia bacteria. Treatment is often very effective, especially if the disease is caught early and owners prompt response upon these symptoms. If left untreated, certain death will be the result of your negligence.

This poor patient also suffered a blow to the head and odds were most certainly not on his side - another one not left behind to die a cold and lonely death, but a warm, caring embrace giving him wings - you spread those wings and fly my baby, follow the colours of the rainbow and indulge in a happy ever Heavenly after. My heart is shattered 💔. Thanks Vetsol for your kind words in keeping our morale high when the sadness devours the tired and tethered soul. Much appreciated and forever grateful 🙏💔🐾

Spontaneous combustion for the driver coming from a party that drove over a pavement and over the two legs of a doggy lying on pavement at her home. Thank you Vetsol for treating free of charge, meds and all. You guys are amazing humans with caring hearts, because all lives matter equally.

While collecting animals for Mass Sterilizations, this owner immediately ran to us with his fur friend - thank you for your respect and care 🙏

WHY STERILIZING A FEMALE
IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE:
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Another example of why excessive breeding in our opinion is also a form of abuse - exhibit A, small female popping babies like a popcorn machine enriching her owners who neglected her healthy care and annual checkups. This is an example of aggressive mammary gland cancer in dogs, the most common tumor in unsterilized females. This type of cancer often presents as lumps around the ni***es and can be benign or malignant. Veterinary care and diagnosis requires a biopsy, and surgical removal of the tumor is the primary treatment, with the goal of removing the entire mass and affected tissue. It is clear that this poor baby has not seen a vet in her life and is obviously still not sterilized.

Early spaying significantly reduces the risk of the development of such tumors. Unfortunately due to her age, the size of this tumor, and the possible aggressive spreading inside, left her with a negative prognosis. We held her close, we stayed with her and carefully allowed her to slip over that heavenly rainbow bridge - I am so terribly sorry for what the human breed has put you through my little starry sky princess, may your friends welcome you with wagging tales and lots of wet kisses. It never gets any easier...

A demanding know-it-all, unsympathetic, bossy and yelling attitude provokes fear instead of trust. Did it ever cross your mind that we may be the only advocate that our animals have! Field workers need to build trust with the community. Be kind, you might be the last one to have shown kindness and change a life.
