This book was written for you – someone who loves horses – and cares enough to want to improve their welfare. It provides simple instructions on how every horse person can do something to help unwanted horses. The book describes how you can make a difference just by sharing a post on Facebook from a rescue page or by educating others that American horses are still slaughtered across the borders. It will describe how to find a reputable rescue to donate, or adopt a horse. The book also details the process of purchasing a horse from a killpen or at an auction. And for those who want to dive in fully, it provides details on how to start your own 501c3 horse rescue organization. The problem of unwanted horses is complicated, systemic and there is no simple answer. The first step is to acknowledge the problem and open your eyes to all factors that make horses unwanted. Where do they come from? Why are they unwanted, and finally how do we make unwanted horses wanted? Creative ideas, collaboration and committed people are the answer. Brace yourself. Rescuing animals is an addictive high when successful and a crushing low when not. Regardless, the net sum of the experience is overwhelmingly positive and will change you forever.
