Welcome to NewEnglandEquineRescues.com

  ...'08 so far.

    Started in '05...New England Equine Rescues (NEER) is a constantly growing 501(c)3 federally recognized non profit organization that networks horse people all over the New England region. NEER is dedicated to helping horses and horse rescues in all ways possible, including direct intervention for abused or slaughter-bound equines, effective horse placement, fundraising, and active support of the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act.  NEER needs to find good homes, foster homes, volunteers, transport, advice, referrals, and as much support as we can to help stop the abuse, neglect, and slaughter of horses. There is no one facility, no one rescue, but a large NETWORK of people ranging from 'an extra stall' to larger non profit organizations.

We welcome all horse people, location is not important. The more people, the better the network.

NEER does NOT sell ANY horses.
NEER does NOT promote any breeding.
NEER deplores the breeding of rescues.

 Exempt from federal income tax under section 501c3 of the IRS.

New ear...

Noir's ear sarcoid, and the one on his sheath, have been removed.  He was put under general anesthesia, which can be very dangerous for a horse, but Noir did GREAT!

Cookies that care.

Pfizer and Bank Of America and Countrywide all match donations. (:

And, Pfizer donates money to non-profits that it's employees volunteer time to.

Cathy in CT...always looking for free and cheap animals 'for her daughter' or some 'girl whose father was killed'...she collects free and cheap animals and sends them to slaughter for the money.  Anything that you give to her will be dead!  For more info...ASK!!  fatoldfarmwife@verizon.net

THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT RESCUE:

~ There are NO guarantees.

~ People lie, and cheat, and steal.  Animal abuse and neglect, and SLAUGHTER, seem to attract the absolute SCUM of the earth...remember that. 

~ No good deed goes unpunished!!

~ The nuances of getting a horse out of a kill pen, and away from a man that sees it only as money, are many.  It takes a while to get 'the hang' of this...  There is so much to learn...always.  And people make mistakes....all people.

~ People don't care if it's true, they'll repeat it anyhow...even if it hurts the horses.

~ 'Quarantine' means a MINIMUM of 25 feet away from ALL other horses.  Separate barn.  Separate fencing.  Separate everything...25 ft away...minimum.  They say a sneeze can go 30 ft.  Maybe make it 31!!?  (:  And for a minimyum of one month.  Not only do you have to worry about the QT horse breaking out to get to the others, but the reverse.  Didn't think of that...did ya.

~ Working together works.  Working against each other doesn't.  If 100,000 horses went to slaughter last year, then there are enough horses for everybody to rescue!!  No need to be jealous, catty, or nasty.  All the BS and backstabbing only hurts the horses.   Being unpleasant and unprofessional only burns a bridge that you may NEED for a horse in the future.

~Even WITH 100,000 horses to save, rescue people still insist on hurting each other. ):

~ If you sell a horse without SOME kind of protective contract, then YOU are helping it to find it's way into a kill pen.  If you need a contract, or help with a contract...PLEASE ASK!!!  We are more than happy to help.

~ Contract.  Contract.  CONTRACT!  Get ALL transactions in writing!!!  This prevents many bad things from happening.

~ Do your homework!!  Before sending your money to a 'rescue', look into it...ask around, check it out...check with others.  People are usually happy to steer you in the right direction.  If you don't know who to ask....just ask!

~ 501c3 non profit does NOT quarantee a good, reputable, and honest rescue.

~ Rescue is VERY time consuming, and even more frustrating!  Many don't last.

~ Horse rescue will drive you to drink...just ask Shawn!!

SLAUGHTER.

All three American slaughter plants are now closed, thousands of horses have been saved.  We need to pass HR503/S311 to stop the transport of horses to other countries, Canada and Mexico, where slaughter is far more brutal...
