Hope for Horses: Help Give 23 Arabians a Second Chance



 https://www.crowdrise.com/HopeforHorses/fundraiser/ginamcallister
 
On November 13th, Lucy Mackenzie Humane Society joined Woodstock VT Police, the Green Mountain Horse Association, local veterinarians and other concerned volunteers in rescuing 23 severely malnourished horses from deplorable conditions at a Woodstock farm.

The Arabians -- mares, geldings, and stallions -- were found standing in manure and urine with no food or water in four, pitch dark barns. Their plight was the result of years of neglect...and prospects were dim as winter closed in.

The rescue was successful.  Today, the horses are safe and cared for in a clean, warm GMHA barn, being fed round the clock, under constant veterinary care, and nurtured by scores of voluteers.

However, this care may be required for many months as the legal process grinds forward. Therefore, to continue providing the many thousands of dollars that will be required, Lucy Mackenzie desperately needs your help to nurse the horses back to health and a future of loving homes.
