MULE CROSSING: Mule Talk Podcast Transcript – Legal

, , , , , 0

MULE TALK PODCAST – Cindy K Roberts & Mule Trainer/Author/Mule Promoter Meredith Hodges – Lucky Three Ranch of Loveland, Colorado, shares with us the important issues to address when drawing up a trust for your mules, livestock, pets, and ranch. Talking with a qualified lawyer is critical and making sure the needs of your mules and donkeys are met is not an easy task when writing up your wishes in a trust agreement.  Meredith shares with us the important thoughts to consider when drawing up a trust. Only on Mule Talk the podcast!

Well, it’s a pleasure to be here. Good Morning! Well, this was a really touchy subject. First of all I wanted to say that I thought it was going to be a whole lot easier than it was. I wanted to make sure that if anything happened to me they would be well taken care of, but I found out in 2006 , it was not that simple because you have to take into consideration the people you are going to designate when you decide to designate somebody to take care of them. Those people need to be willing to do it and as we all know, “Horse Poor” is the old saying. So taking on an equine is a whole lot more expensive than taking on a cat or a dog, and even those can become a problem. So when I was trying to decide what to do with my animals, I thought “Gosh,” I could pass on my ranch to my family, but they might decide to just sell that with the animals and everything and not care where they went at all.

So that prompted me to get really meticulous about what I did. That’s why I launched into what I did establishing the Loveland Longears Museum and Sculpture Park at Lucky Three Ranch as a 501 (c) 3. We had to develop a “mission statement” to make it legitimate. We did that to teach people, at risk-kids and younger children about the care, maintenance, handling and training of equines in general and not just mules…but, with the primary focus on mules. The focus being like that would ensure that my animals would be part of the 501 3 (c) 3 and would be guaranteed a place in the whole foundation. They would be taken care of!

The other thing that I had to decide was who going to take care of them. If I just developed the foundation, they would take on employees that could be anybody and not necessarily people with the experience needed to do a good job with their health and welfare. They might mismanage it and it could all fall apart rather easily. The crew that I have here is not a large crew. I now have one girl and two guys that help me with everything here at the ranch with this whole operation…132 ½ acres, 16 equines, 122 acres in hay that we cut, bale, stack and store ourselves twice a year. In addition, we have to preface that with cleaning the hay barns and prepping them to receive the hay, store the left-over bales from last year in our hay sales barn and after wards, we need to sweep the fields, gather any broken bales and bale whatever we can to store with the rest of the hay. That is a tall order! We just did 11, 000 bales during First Cutting this year and it is ordinarily between 5000-6000 bales per year. We grow our own hay for our equines because we cannot be sure to get the quality hay that we want from other sources each year. Nor can we be assured that there will even be grass hay available. People do grow different kinds of hay and the Brome/Orchard Grass hay that we grow for our equines is the best for them.

I hear from people every day that tell me they can’t find good grass hay for their animals. Mules and donkeys, being desert animals have to have a very specific diet or they can easily become obese and then you have all sorts of problems and vert bills up the ying-yang, if they don’t just die. It is really easy to mess up that program. The people that have been with me have been here for more than 20 years. We all operate as a team and not by how many hours are put in. Rather, each day is gauged by the tasks needed to be performed and we do not call it a day until the list is completed each day. We all pitch in to help each other when one person has more to do than the others. Each person has their own specific job description, but we all pitch in together when it is time to do the hay during the hay season.

The two of us girls welcome the opportunity to get out of the office during hay season. The weather is always lovely and working together is a lot of just plain fun. Doing house and office work can get rather tedious when it is so repetitive each day throughout the year. We try to keep up morale by changing up the schedule every so often. There are a lot of things to do like answering the phone, answering peoples’ questions, taking orders, booking tours, distributing orders, keeping the book-keeping straight each day, making Social Media posts regularly, checking the websites connections, both the LTR website and the Jasper website, keeping up the inventory cards in the warehouse and updating all the records for the attorneys and accountants. We also celebrate birthdays with our fellow workers, including our remote graphics artist, videographers and with our JASPER MASCOT, Social Media and behind the scenes website help. It is important to keep a happy and enthusiastic crew!

We schedule Private Tours by appointment only which is another welcome time to get out and interact with people who come to the ranch to see all that we do. We have repeat visitors who just love to see what new things we have built and how the ranch just keeps expanding and educating. We’ve been told that this ranch is Colorado’s best-kept secret. When we have these tours, it’s another time that we all pitch in together to help depending on the size and capability of the folks on the tours. If they are small groups, the guys take care of their regular outside duties like the daily cleaning of the stalls, pens and barns, veterinary issues with individual equines, any construction that we have in the works, stock-piling the different things we use regularly, maintenance and repairs and we won’t need their assistance. But if we have a large group, or people with special needs, we will have the guys help lead the tours as drivers of our tour carts while Kristen and I interact with the people. The guys always make sure the ranch is spotless for the tours and we even have the statue cleaners come out before we have tours and make sure the statues are glistening in the sun! Keeping things clean every day also helps to keep down the flies and insects that would irritate the equines as well as our visitors. When they come to visit, people remark about how good it smells here!

Since we ARE a museum, we are always in the process of developing new exhibitions and construction of the new buildings to house them. We do not want to find ourselves in violation of our 501 (c) 3 status. We established our 501(c) 3 status in 2006, but we did not want to be limited to government standard while improving the ranch, so I researched what we were required to do to maintain the status without including the land. We can remain a 501 (c)3 foundation by simply keeping it a Bank Account that donates to other 501(c) 3’s. We have supported several others during the years we have been in operation as a 501(c) 3, but are now limiting our donations to our favorite charity foundation, the Hearts and Horses Therapeutic Riding Center. It is thriving as not only a therapeutic center for the disabled, but we also provide help for Veterans, At-Risk Kids, those with Alzheimer’s, dementia and Physical Therapies after surgeries. We have won multiples awards for our work with Hearts and Horses! Another great way to put smiles on people’s faces!

I legally guaranteed my crew’s jobs as the staff of the Loveland Longears Museum and Sculpture Park. I hired an attorney that clearly set up the L.L.M.S.P. By-Laws and Mission Statement for the 5-1 (C) 3 status and another attorney that did my Last Will and Testament such that is was all very explicit about my wishes upon my death.  We all know how expensive our animals can be, so it6 is advisable to include a stipend of money to accompany the care of the animals so that the designated recipient is not burdened with the cost.  So, even though people may offer to take them over for you like they agree to adopt children upon a friend’s demise, you can make sure that they are not biting off more, than they can chew.

Lots of people have been schooled in Natural Horsemanship, but we no longer live in a world where the horses, mules and donkeys are running loose on the range. Equines don’t have access to an environment where they graze when they are hungry, rest when they are tired and naturally wear their hooves evenly from the traveling and autonomous lifestyle they would naturally lead. It is up to us to identify how we can make act responsibly and make reasonable substitutions for this change in their environment. With the onset of our urban sprawl, we need to realize that our equines will never again have access to 5000+ of prairies and mountains as they did in the past. Those days are gone and will never be again. It’s hard enough to get 5-10 acres lots!

One cannot make any assumptions about what should happen upon your death after you are gone. If you don’t do the things as meticulously as I have done, anything can happen and your animals will suffer. It is better to have it all clearly laid out and in such a way that your designated recipients will be fully aware of what they are signing up for. You will need a clearly stated document about the way YOU care for your equine, so the recipient will know exactly what to do with your animal when they inherit it (How to feed (hay and oats mixes, worming, minerals, exercise, maintenance in a dry lot with limited turnout, social time, training expectations, etc.). This is critical for health of your mules and donkeys. Otherwise, you animals may not be cared for as you desire. Your assets will be at the mercy of other people’s opinions and desires. People can be very selfish in this way. People often believe that you can just turnout in a pasture and that is good enough…NOT! Mules and donkeys are very susceptible to obesity that will usually follow with founder and other things like ringbone and side bones. Poor management is generally due to owner laziness and misinformation that is freely passed around. Beware of advertising and markets techniques. They are not necessarily based in the overall welfare for your equine. Beware of dehydrated cubes and pellets, different oils, minerals, amounts and types of grains, treats, etc. I did my “field” research with 32 equines over a period of 40 years.

Granted, a lot of people don’t have as much money as I do, but I don’t have as much coming in as most people think. You cannot make a living on selling books and videos! I had to get creative about how to manage my money as well. So, I hired a Financial Advisor several decades ago and just stared an investment account with UBS Financial Services with the understanding that I would treat it as if the account was not even there. I started with a minimal amount and then just let the dividends be reinvested. I never took any money back. Except, if I got into trouble with my taxes and had to “borrow” money, I would “borrow” from that account to pay the taxes. But I ALWAYS put it back in a very short period of time…it was not MY money in MY own mind! Over several decades, my Financial Advisor turned my original $500.00 into millions!

Regardless of the number of animals or the number of friends that you have that will tell that they would care for your animals, it is essential to have real discussions about what this would entail and how comfortable they would be with all the responsibility that you would be passing along to them. What are the legal stipulations for the location where your recipient lives? Laws are different everywhere and it is important to research these legal regulations for a full understanding of what will be needed to pass your equine on to a new owner. Then if they are okay with it, get a GOOD ATTORNEY to draw up the agreement between you and make it all legal! Do not just draw up an agreement with your friend and sign it. It won’t hold water! This is why I opted to go ahead and spend the money and time to do it the right way. Then I KNOW for sure that I will truly REST IN PEACE!

WNWR- 4-7-16 - FARRIER FOOT CHECK_2

What’s New With Roll? Farrier Foot Check

, , , , 0

We wanted Roll to go as long as possible in between trims because we didn’t want to put too many nail holes in his damaged right hind foot. Today Dean Geesen came out and trimmed the foot after our veterinarian had the opportunity to check the foot yesterday.

Things are looking very encouraging for Roll as long as we don’t hit any serious snags. The foot is growing at a rate of 1/8” per week and is producing healthy tissue and no more separation that we can tell. We opted to get him trimmed and then just wait another month and x-ray the foot again to make sure there are no hidden issues.

We were changing the boot every other day when the weather was drier, but now we are taking off the boot and cleaning the hoof twice a day, then blowing it dry with a hair dryer to help keep out the spring moisture that was beginning to produce thrush. The trimming gave us the opportunity to trim down the heels a bit to get him backed off his toe and to re-balance the foot. We are happy with his progress so far.

Roll continues to stay sound! The key to his entire treatment has been to frequently assess the progress and then be willing to be flexible in any changes to the treatment that we might have to do. Being proactive like this is definitely the key to success in Roll’s treatment!

The Secret Is Out! You Won’t Want to Miss This!

The following is from All About Equine Animal Rescue:

All About Equine Animal Rescue, Inc.

Last month, we were invited to participate in a once-in-a-lifetime, pinch-us opportunity. We were not able to share any details of the project, where it was, or with whom we were doing it, until NOW!

In the wee hours the morning of our secret project, we loaded a couple of horses in the trailer for an adventure. Despite waffling for days on which horses would go (after all, we have so many beautiful horses….of course, we’re not partial, at all), ultimately, it was Finn and Wylie that begged to make their worldly debut. We enjoyed a spectacular sunrise and many laughs along the way.

We’d never been to Milk Studios before, or any studio for that matter, considering some of us are photophobic! Who would think they’d roll out the red carpet, ergh…a carpet…for us in Hollywood. Oh, right, haha, it was for the horses, not us humans.

Finn and Wylie had never been up stairs before, but they rose to the challenge and tackled those seven steps like they’d done it a hundred times, though Finn wanted Bianca to catch him at the top to carry him across the threshold.

Despite Finn’s drama, Bianca was all smiles. Once inside, the boys thought they were going to get their hair and makeup done, but they were a bit disappointed to hear they’d missed the styling call. Instead, Finn made friends with the photographer, and they had some selfie fun; Wylie rolled his eyes, “oh brother”.

They didn’t understand what all the hustle and bustle was for, and after a while, they were getting a bit impatient. Then, it was show time! The boys knew they were the perfect fit for this photo shoot with their blonde bombshell looks, perfect sense of fashion and style, and obsession with all things sexy and celebrity, even if they can’t speak German. They were extra excited when they realized they were having their photos taken with none other than Jennifer Coolidge for GQ Germany magazine!

Ms. Coolidge is a passionate advocate for animals, and she requested that any animals appearing with her in the photos be from a rescue/sanctuary organization. Knowing that alone made her extra awesome in our eyes, but after we met her, we can tell you just how beautiful and kind she is.

The shoot was published today! You can see the exquisite photos of Jennifer, Finn, Wylie, and the other animals, and read the interview, too! You may need to use a translator tool if you aren’t fluent in German (the magazine is for GQ Germany, after all).

Read the Article

Thank you to Jennifer Coolidge, photographer Charlie Engman, stylist Tobias Fredrick, producer Anthony Federici & Petty Cash Production Co, and GQ Germany, for choosing AAE to shine the lights on rescue horses! Everyone was so fun to work with, and we will never forget this day!

 

Chilly Pepper – Exciting, (but scary) News, and When it Rains, It Pours!

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Hi

Wow, it has been a week. We got the water spigot fixed. Thank you to all who made that happen. Then 2 days later, not a drop of water anywhere. With all the rescue horses and other critters, it was hard not to panic. It was the weekend, so I put out a post on Facebook asking if anyone might have any advice.

About half an hour later I was in tears. The Golconda Volunteer Fire Department called and said they were on the way with a water tender. They came and filled every trough, including the extra’s. Other neighbors came over to see if they could help. Other folks called to help. I have never been so overwhelmed by so much community support.

I did find a “well guy” who came and fixed the issues. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have water again.

Chilly Pepper received some amazing donations and we were able to cover the expense of this last load of hay and get the water fixed, twice. Thank You!!

My knee/leg has been getting worse since I broke it last December. After the latest episode, the pain is pretty much unbearable.

I am not trying to be a whiny baby, but I simply need to hire help for the rescue. It’s just me and it is overwhelming right now.

I ended up in the ER after falling. Taking care of all these animals by myself is not working well. With the quad, I can stay mobile, even when I am using my crutches or wheel chair, so I can water etc. When the truck is fixed, I will be able to place the big bales of hay. However, it is crazy to think I can keep doing all of this by myself. For those who don’t know, Matt has been out of the picture for years now. I need funds to hire regular/semi regular help.

The estimate for the Quad maintenance/repairs is just under $400. (Taking care of it like I should saves so much money in the long run.) The truck estimate is now at around $1300 and I have the appointment on Tuesday. Both of these vehicles are absolutely imperative for me to be able to use. Sadly the repairs for the water and the hay have eaten up most of what was donated, and the rest was eaten up by hiring help. We still owe close to $4000 to the Vet in Goldendale. Thanking God she is so patient. I simply need to have help to keep running the rescue.

I need the funds for the truck on Tuesday, but it is imperative to get it fixed so I can feed all the animals.

The horses are all fat and happy, and Wendy is loving her new life, just being a horse with no people asking anything of her or torturing her.

THE EXCITING, but scary news. So far last week my knee buckled, I went down and ended up in the ER., Several days later, I ended up face planting on the ice a second time.

My Physical therapist recommended the Doc who operated on JEREMY RENNER. For those of you who are not familiar, Jeremy was run over by a 14,300 # snowplow. He was crushed from his toes to his broken eye socket, with over 30 broken bones. I just saw his story and am so inspired. I HAVE A DR. APPOINTMENT WITH HIS DOC ON DEC 6, 2024. Maybe this will be the answers to my prayers. If he fixed him, surely he can do something with my leg. His name is Peter Althausen, and I believe his nickname is the Carpenter.

I am still planning on doing what we do, as long as I can raise enough funds to hire help. Hopefully my leg will be fixed after 46 years of surgery and broken bones, as well as chronic pain. The rescue keeps me going and gives me a reason to get up every morning. I pray y’all want me to keep it going as well.

I appreciate all the love and support and will continue to “git ‘er done” as long as we have the funding.

PLEASE HELP AND SHARE THIS FAR & WIDE! THANK YOU to everyone who has already donated.

An exciting update

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

It’s Suzanne again, Executive Director of American Wild Horse Conservation. I wanted to take a moment to share an exciting update with you ahead of our deadline to unlock an important Giving Tuesday 2X matching donation. With just hours to go, a final donor has come forward to offer an additional $10,000 towards our Giving Tuesday match—bringing the total match potential up to $100,000! Please chip in before midnight to help us secure this incredible 2X matching opportunity for wild horses!

UNLOCK THE MATCH

For over a decade, I’ve been deeply committed to protecting America’s wild horses, standing alongside our AWHC herd. This fight isn’t just about preserving an iconic symbol of freedom—it’s about honoring our shared responsibility to safeguard wildlife and public lands for future generations.

Our wild herds embody the untamed beauty and freedom that define the American West, but that freedom is under constant threat. Federal policies continue to jeopardize their survival through inhumane helicopter roundups, habitat destruction, indefinite confinement in overburdened holding facilities and even the looming threat of slaughter. These challenges are immense, making the fight to protect these iconic animals more urgent than ever

I won’t sugarcoat things, Meredith, this fight isn’t easy. Yet despite the many challenges in front of us, there is hope. Together, through collective action and an unwavering commitment to standing up for our wild herds, we have the power to create lasting change and preserve a legacy of wildness that belongs to us all.

This is why I’m so proud of the entire AWHC team and our herd of grassroots advocates like you. From challenging inhumane roundups in the courts to fighting for humane, sustainable solutions in Congress, we’re making a difference for mustangs and burros—and right now, we have an extraordinary opportunity to amplify our impact by unlocking this $100,000 2X match.

But, only if we meet our goal of raising $50,000 by midnight tonight. We’re less than $1,000 away from unlocking these funds, and your support can help get us across the finish line. Will you make a contribution today to help us secure this critical funding?

UNLOCK THE MATCH

Your donation today will go twice as far to help wild horses. With your support, I pledge to continue the fight to reform our broken federal wild horse and burro management system, fight for humane solutions, and ensure that America’s wild herds remain free for generations to come.

Thank you,

Helicopters are descending on thousands of Nevada’s iconic wild horses right now

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Just two weeks ago, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) launched a large-scale roundup in Nevada’s Triple B Complex. The agency plans to capture and remove more than 2,000 wild horses from the area, and already, over 1,400 have lost their freedom. Even more heartbreaking, 13 horses have tragically lost their lives since this roundup began. Many died from broken necks and legs and far too many were euthanized by the BLM for treatable conditions, like sway backs.

This is the devastating reality our wild horses and burros face every day, and it’s why our fight to protect them is so urgent. These brutal roundups must end, and we’re doing everything in our power to make that happen — from documenting and exposing these tragedies, to pushing for humane solutions and government accountability.

Right now, we have a chance to significantly amplify our impact, but we need your help. Thanks to some generous donors, every single gift made will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $90,000, doubling the resources we can dedicate to protecting wild horses and burros.

But, this match will only be unlocked if we reach our initial goal of $50,000 by midnight TOMORROW, Thursday, November 21. We’re making progress, but your support is essential to ensure we don’t miss this opportunity. Can you chip in today and help us unlock this critical 2X match?

MAKE A 2X IMPACT

Every donation you make will go twice as far to help us fight against cruel roundups like the one in Nevada. It will enable our team to keep advocating for wild horses — out in the field, in the courtroom, and in the halls of Congress.

Our wild herds deserve better. With your support, we can continue to be their voice and fight for their freedom. Please help us unlock this critical matching gift and double your impact today.

DONATE TO DOUBLE YOUR GIFT

Thank you for standing with us and the wild horses who need you.

How you can double your impact for wild horses this winter

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

I have some exciting news to share as we continue to prepare for Giving Tuesday, our most critical fundraising day of the year. Thanks to the generosity of some of AWHC’s most dedicated donors, every Giving Tuesday donation will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to $90,000! This incredible opportunity means that, with your support, we have the potential to raise $180,000 to fuel our critical work to protect wild horses and burros.

But there’s a catch: This match will only be unlocked if we reach our $50,000 goal before the end of the day on Thursday, November 21. That’s why your support right now is so important.

Please consider making a donation today to help us reach this critical milestone and unlock the full potential of this matching gift. Your contribution will have double the impact on our fight to keep wild horses and burros wild and free.

DONATE

Your support powers our work in the field, in the courts, and on Capitol Hill. As you know, federal mismanagement continues to put wild horses and burros at grave risk—subjecting them to inhumane roundups, indefinite confinement, and even the threat of slaughter. Our team works tirelessly to expose these cruelties, hold the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) accountable, and champion humane, long-term conservation solutions that keep these iconic animals free in the wild where they belong.

Unlocking this matching opportunity would be a tremendous boost for 2025 and beyond, amplifying every dollar we raise to protect the freedom and lives of America’s wild horses and burros.

Please, make a donation today to double your impact and help us unlock this vital $90,000 match. Together, we can achieve so much for these iconic animals.

Here are our top three priorities for 2025

, , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Our work here at American Wild Horse Conservation never stops. With 2025 just around the corner, we’re already laying the groundwork for continuing our fight for the freedom of our wild herds next year.

HELP US PREPARE FOR 2025 >>

With the new year comes a new administration and a new Congress. Changes in leadership can present fresh opportunities to advance the cause of wild horse conservation, but it can also bring new risks, such as reopening the door to increased roundups and slaughter of these cherished animals. In order to ensure that the progress we’ve made for wild horses and burros continues next year, we’re focusing on four key areas of our work:

  1. Growing and Mobilizing Grassroots Support: Expanding our public awareness campaigns and grassroots activities is critical in order to translate the broad bipartisan public support for wild horse protection into stronger bipartisan legislative protections. We must be ready to quickly rally public opposition against any potential slaughter proposals that resurface. In 2016, we successfully mobilized our grassroots coalition to prevent the White House’s attempt to lift the slaughter ban on wild horses. Due to public pressure, the Senate ultimately blocked the measure. With the growing number of horses in holding, the threat of slaughter persists, and we must be prepared to act again as the last line of defense for our wild herds.
  2. Expanding our legal fund: Expanding our litigation capacity and our legal fund will be critical to continuing to defend the laws that protect wild horses and burros. Our legal team has been at the forefront of numerous court battles to defend wild equines from roundups across the country. In Wyoming, we’ve been fighting in federal court for over a decade to prevent the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) from eliminating 2.1 million acres of federally designated habitat for wild horses and slashing the state’s wild horse population by one-third.
  3. Expanding Legal and Humane Management Models: From our groundbreaking Land Conservancy Project to our in-the-wild fertility control programs, AWHC will continue to build solutions that serve as national models for humane conservation of our nation’s wild herds. Through the success of these programs, AWHC is working to chip away at the false narrative that wild horses are invasive or ecologically harmful.

We have a lot in store for us in 2025. Grassroots supporters like you are the foundation of the work we do to protect our wild herds. We’re counting on your continued support to help us achieve our ambitious goals for wild horses and burros in the coming year. Can you chip in whatever you can afford today to power our work for wild horse conservation?

POWER OUR WORK

Thank you,

Team AWHC

Help Us Keep Wild Horse Roundups in Plain Sight

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Urgent Action Needed:
Roundups Hidden From Sight

This is Amelia Perrin with American Wild Horse Conservation. I’m reaching out because we need your help. Thanks to your past contributions, we’ve been able to document federal wild horse roundups, ensuring greater public visibility and enabling legislators and advocates to take action. Your support has played a vital role in shining a light on these operations.
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has announced plans to capture more than 10,000 wild horses this year — but from what we’ve observed so far, the federal government is shielding much of this action from public view.
Take Action
The ongoing federal roundup conducted by the United States Forest Service in Devils Garden Wild Horse Territory in California is a prime example of this. Here are a few recently documented observations from our on-the-ground volunteers:

  • – October 29: The trap site (place set up to capture wild horses) was hidden under thick tree cover, making it impossible for the public to observe.
  • – November 1: No public access to view the trap site or the horses being loaded up and transported out of their habitat in the public land area.
  • – November 6: Observers were placed behind the loading area, with a hill blocking crucial sightlines to the trap site and other roundup action.

Helicopter roundups are taking place in our public lands, and yet public access is being blocked. When the lives of federally protected wild horses are at stake, transparency cannot be an afterthought.
Take Action
We’re calling on the BLM to put cameras on helicopters and wranglers, ensuring the whole operation is visible. When these roundups go dark, it’s more than a lack of transparency — it’s a breach of public trust.
The stakes are high: to ensure wild horses are treated humanely, we need roundups that are transparent to the public eye. Click “Take Action” to take action today, to support our work and make sure we all have eyes on these operations.
Together in pursuit of keeping wild horses wild,

CHASITY’S CHALLENGES: Chasity Meets the Monster Vac: 6-2-20

, , , , , 0

6-2-20

Chasity is now regularly coming to her stall door and is always anxious to see what the next challenge will be. The one thing she HAS learned is that she will never be hurt by anyone here. Cleaning her ears was a necessary evil at first, but she now enjoys the gentle cleaning as I wipe the rag with the grain of the hair to get the dirt from her ears. And she loves having clean ears! We are ALWAYS consistent and stay with the routine about everything we do with all of our equines. They appreciate knowing what comes next. Ours is a NO ANXIETY zone, but that doesn’t mean we do not challenge them and set boundaries for good behavior. Chasity is about to be tested to the max with her next new challenge!

Chasity really enjoyed the brisk brushing with the multi-bristled human hair brush. It is the only brush that I have found the really expedites shedding and leaves the coat soft and shiny. It reaches deep in the coat and aerates the hair shafts. After the brushing, it is followed with either the shedding blade to remove the loosened hair laying on top, or….there is an introduction to the VACUUM CLEANER!!! Chasity was not too sure about this BIG BLUE THING that rolled!

We always take the introduction of new things slowly. I gently coaxed Chasity toward the vacuum cleaner. This was an approach that she recognized from her obstacle training and moved furtively toward me to receive her reward of crimped oats.

She watched the cameras while I went to plug it in. The loud sucking noise startled her! I acknowledged her concern and calmed her with a soothing voice.

But then it was time for the business of vacuuming HER! I use the cotton lead rope for control, but she is prevented from going backwards with the second hitch rail tie made of a stout braided nylon rope with bull snaps on each end. The last thing you want is for the rope to break! I talked to Chasity and ask her if she would rather calm down and step forward to receive her reward…she thought about it…I waited patiently…

…and she decided that was a pretty good idea! She tentatively accepted the vacuum on her forehead. This is a spot where they generally like to be vacuumed first.

I laughed as she made a plea for help from the camera people! Then I had to straighten out the hose and she was certain that big black coiled “snake” was going to get her!

She wasn’t exactly pleased, but she allowed me to begin to vacuum her neck…and then her shoulder. I kept a hand on her so she could feel my caring support.

It didn’t take long for her to calm down and allow me to vacuum the rest of her body. She discovered that it actually felt pretty good!

Then I looped the “BIG BLACK SNAKE” over the hitch rail to prepare to do the other side. She sat back on the rope again, but was easily coaxed forward again.

Things are always different from one side of an equine to the next. So, when I approached from the other side, she again sat back on the rope, but came forward again quickly to receive her reward.

I did her forehead again while she fixated her gaze to the camera people. When I got to her body, she was fixated on the BIG BLUE BOX, but not bothered at all by the suction, or the hose.

After I finished her right side, I knelt by the BIG BLUE BOX and asked her to come and investigate which Chasity did willingly. She had conquered the challenge of the MONSTER VAC!!!

Heartwarming Adoption Story

MYERS

Today, we are sharing the heartwarming adoption story of Myers!

AAE welcomed Myers along with Portia, Maia, and Whiskey last year. We went to pick up Maia and discovered another three in need of help. The horses’ basic care and overall health had been neglected for some time. Myers and Whiskey were stallions who had each been tied to a 15-foot rope attached to a metal stake in the ground, likely for seven years. At that time, we didn’t take in mature stallions due to the difficult challenges they can represent, but we couldn’t leave Myers and Whiskey there. We took Maia and Portia, then returned for the boys after building two stallion paddocks at AAE.

Over the following several months at AAE, the four gained weight, relearned some basic handling and manners, then received the works (dental and hoof care, vaccines, deworming, etc.). Myers and Whiskey were gelded, once they were safely manageable.

 

Over the summer, Myers found a forever home where he will live a wonderful life – happy, healthy, and surrounded by love. Thank you, Kristina, for making Myers a member of your family!

Stories like Myers’s are a reminder of why we do what we do, and it wouldn’t be possible with the kindness and ongoing dedication of our AAE community! You are part of making these beautiful transformations happen!

Your donations, volunteering, adopting, and social media shares & likes really do make a difference; it’s what makes all of this work possible!

Thank YOU!

Chilly Pepper – WATER 911! We have no water. Callie is home

, , , 0

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Hi

Chilly Pepper needs your help now. Our water spicket is busted, so we have no water until it is fixed. We have weather coming in and we need to hire someone for an immediate and emergency repair. The cost could be hundreds? I am looking to find someone right now. They need to dig down to the existing pipe and make the repairs before the rain and snow get here. The urgency makes it a bit more spendy.

I need some work done on the truck so I am able to push the (nearly 1 ton) bales into where they need to go. THE ESTIMATE IS ABOUT $1500 so far.

As y ‘all know, my leg is still broken and the bones cannot reattach and heal to the prosthetic. So I am permanently walking on a broken leg, until they do the surgery where they replace the tendon, add a patella and replace/add to the Tibia.

As I have about 25 horses at the rescue right now, I need to make sure everything runs as efficiently as possible. Using the big bales saves the rescue so much money and makes it possible for ME to “GIT ‘ER DONE”. I need to get the truck done this week.

Callie is home safe. Thank you!

We need another load of hay asap. The horses are staying warm and toasty with the good feed. During the last delivery, the truck broke down in our driveway. Thankfully the hay was already here. However, it was a great big reminder of how important it is to have hay delivered ahead of time. It will be about $2500 for the next batch.

If you can help with getting our water lines repaired, the truck fixed and a new load of hay, we would really appreciate it. I no longer have the folks staying at our Nevada facility, so I have been scrambling to get things ready for winter as a one person operation. Thankfully my friend and partner in crime lives a few miles away. Danielle is amazing and is my backup and always there if I have an emergency. So even if I hit the ground, she will always step up in the interim.

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL WHO HAVE DONATED! I apologize for the late “thank you’s”. I am scrambling pretty much round the clock to prep for winter. You are so appreciated. Please say a prayer I get the water fixed before it is too wet.

PLEASE HELP AND SHARE THIS FAR & WIDE! THANK YOU to everyone who has already donated.

THANK YOU, MY CHILLY PEPPER FAMILY, FOR ALWAYS BEING THERE! YOU ROCK!!!

Help us set the stage for our biggest moment of the year

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Our most important fundraising day of the year is just three weeks away.

This year, Giving Tuesday is December 3.

We’ve challenged our team to raise $50,000 by November 21 to kick off a successful season of giving and inspire generous, essential donor matches that will help us achieve our advocacy goals for 2025. Can you chip in today to help us set the stage for Giving Tuesday and power our work to protect wild horses and burros?

GIVE NOW

There’s a lot at stake. As we look ahead at a new fiscal year with a new administration and Congress directing federal agencies, our efforts are more important than ever. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) wild horse and burro roundup and stockpile system is near its breaking point with over 66,000 animals currently languishing in federal holding facilities.

In fact, as we write this, two devastating federal helicopter roundups are underway in Nevada and California targeting nearly 3,000 wild horses. Chased by helicopters over rugged terrain, these horses will endure high-stress conditions, risking injury, exhaustion, and separation from their families. Ten horses have already died. 

Yet these disturbing realities do not change the BLM’s plans to round up thousands more horses and burros in Fiscal Year (FY) 2025. 

Every day, our team continues to expose federal cruelties and hold the BLM accountable. Will you help power our fight to keep wild horses and burros wild?

Thank you,

OLIVIA

It’s been a while since we’ve shared a horse story with you, but we are excited to introduce our newest herd member, Olivia. She’s a very sweet and easy going mare!

Olivia came to AAE with some health issues that weren’t resolved, and she had not been getting the care she needed. Olivia is a 14 year old (2010) Thoroughbred. She ran 22 races from 2015 to 2017, and her racing history wasn’t too impressive (one win). She won $17,540 during her long racing career.

Since arrival, Olivia has had her basic health care updated: dental and hoof care, vaccines, and deworming. She already had a microchip.

 Olivia also had quite the round of diagnostics, revealing this sweet mare has had a chronic uterine infection. She’s on a long course of antibiotics in hopes it will resolve the issue. If not, we will continue further treatment options with Dr. Stolba to get her healthy.

Cross your fingers the antibiotics work, and stay tuned for updates!

Thank you, Laura P., for sponsoring Olivia!

We believe that every horse deserves a second chance, and with the continued support of our community, we can provide Olivia and others like her with the love and care they need.

 

Public Comments Needed for Nevada Wild Horses!

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Over 7,500 wild horses from Nevada’s Antelope and Triple B Complexes need your help! Right now, the Bureau of Land Management is accepting public comments on a Herd Management Area Plan (HMAP) for these two complexes and the wild horses who call this area home.

As part of this, the BLM wants to reduce the number of horses to the unscientific Appropriate Management Level (AML) of 899-1,678 animals across the complexes. But at the same time, the BLM allows significant livestock grazing year-round on the public lands in these complexes.

TAKE ACTION

These horses are an important part of Nevada’s desert landscape, especially the Antelope wild horses who possess unique genetic traits. It’s essential to conserve these iconic animals on our public lands. Speak up now for Nevada’s wild horses!

When evaluating this HMAP the BLM Must:

  • Reevaluate the land conditions, including the impact of livestock on the range, before any removal decision is made.
  • Include new conservation methods that transparently address primary degradation factors, and promote balanced ecosystems and sustainable land use across public rangelands.
  • Prioritize fertility control over roundups, aligning with legal directives, science-based strategies, and fiscal responsibility for effective wild horse management.
  • Abandon the use of gelding as a population management strategy.
  • Prioritize bait trap removals over cruel, costly helicopter roundups if roundups are necessary.
  • Undergo updated genetic testing to ensure genetic viability for all herds who call these complexes home.
TAKE ACTION

Submitting public comments is one of our more influential ways to shape policy, ensure government transparency, prevent decisions that favor private industry interests, and show public support for humane conservation for our beloved wild horses and burros. Take action now to speak up for these beloved wild horse herds!

Thank you for your advocacy for our wild ones,

Team AWHC

Fulfilling America’s promise to our wild herds

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Fifty-two years ago, with the passage of the historic Wild and Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act of 1971, Congress made a promise to the wild horses and burros who roam the West: the right to live free on the lands they call home, protected from capture, branding, harassment, and death.

Sadly, five decades later, it is abundantly clear that the federal government has failed to live up to this promise.

Right now, the federal agency tasked with managing wild horses and burros, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), spends millions of your hard-earned tax dollars to brutally round up thousands of mustangs and burros using helicopters. These roundups are inhumane and often cause injuries such as broken legs or necks, and in the worst cases, deaths. Those who survive are pushed into overburdened holding facilities where over 66,000 of these iconic animals are currently languishing in captivity.

We know it doesn’t have to be this way. That’s why American Wild Horse Conservation, the nation’s leading wild horse and burro conservation organization, exists. Our mission is to uphold the promise we made to our wild herds in 1971, and thanks to the support of a growing herd of advocates, we’ve made vital strides toward our goal.

POWER OUR WORK

In the field, we’re setting the standard for wild horse and burro conservation. In 2023, we acquired over 3,300 acres of prime habitat in Nevada’s beautiful Carson Valley to launch our Land Conservancy Project. This pilot program is dedicated to preserving critical habitat for mustangs and burros while advancing land conservation initiatives for wild horse areas. This year, we’ve built on these efforts by securing vital water and grazing rights, enhancing water sources, and helping to restore fire-impacted areas. 

This year also marked the five year anniversary of our historic humane fertility control program on Nevada’s Virginia Range. This scientifically proven conservation approach is key to our efforts in keeping wild horses free on the range while responsibly managing herd numbers. That’s why we were proud to see reversible fertility control programs succeeding in other herds this year, such as the locally managed Pine Nut Mountains program in Northern Nevada, as well as Utah’s Cedar Mountains where AWHC administered fertility control to wild mares in a remote population who were previously considered untreatable.

SUPPORT OUR CONSERVATION EFFORTS

In addition to our work in the field, this year AWHC has been at the forefront of advancing legislation at the federal and state levels to reform wild horse and burro management while also pursuing litigation to enforce protection laws.

Seventy-eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives and 15 Senators supported our request for appropriations legislation to reform the BLM’s Wild Horse and Burro Program. As a result of this work, the House included dedicated funding for fertility control programs, and both chambers reaffirmed protections against slaughter. On the state level, we’re continuing to build coalitions in key states where wild horses and burros reside, such as in Colorado, where AWHC supported the formation of the Wild Horse Working Group, which aims to develop collaborative solutions for humane wild horse management.

In the courts, we’re continuing to stand up for our wild herds on multiple fronts. In Wyoming, after a 12-year court battle against the BLM, we filed a lawsuit to stop the agency from eliminating 2 million acres of habitat that would result in the eradication of two iconic wild horse herds in the state. We’re now continuing that court case through the appellate process. And in Arizona, we partnered with local allies to protect the horses who roam the Tonto National Forest.

POWER OUR WORK

Your support is making a difference for wild horses and burros. We can’t do this vital work without you. Please chip in whatever you can afford today to help us continue our mission to fulfill America’s promise to our precious wild herds.

Thank you,

American Wild Horse Conservation

Chilly Pepper – Update – WENDY IS SAFE – Callie still needs your help!!!

The following is from Chilly Pepper – Miracle Mustang:

Hi

Quick update

We have reached the matching $1000 funds, paid for the most recent load of hay and Wendy is home. Vet bill in NV is paid, and now we need to get Callie. Sadly the vet bill in WA is still close to $4,000. I’m giving Wendy a few days to decompress and praying she won’t end up needing vet care.

We need $875 to save Callie and cover her transport. She is the 3 year old filly who was headed to slaughter. Let’s save her too!!!!

The horses are eating almost double due to the cold weather, and it seems like it is going to be a tough winter this year. Thank you for your help!

PLEASE HELP AND SHARE THIS FAR & WIDE! THANK YOU to everyone who has already donated.

It’s time to unite and fight for our nation’s wild horses and burros

, , , , 0

The following is from the American Wild Horse Campaign:

Many Americans gathered on Tuesday evening to watch as election results rolled in. While not all results are final, it’s clear that America’s landscape has shifted, presenting both opportunities and challenges for the wild horses and burros we’re committed to protecting.

Every new administration and Congress brings fresh opportunities for change, but it can also bring new risks, such as reopening the door to the slaughter of these cherished animals. 

The reality is that no administration since President Richard Nixon signed the Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act in 1971 has truly championed wild horses and burros. Yet, public support for their protection remains one of the few causes that unites Americans across the political spectrum. Time and again, polls show that the vast majority of people—Democrats and Republicans alike—want to preserve these animals as part of our Western heritage and natural landscape.

Despite the political shifts over the years, we are encouraged by the enduring support for humane solutions to protect wild horses. Now it’s up to us to ensure this bipartisan support is reflected in Congress with champions on both sides of the aisle.

We knew no matter who won, the fight ahead would require renewed focus, resilience, and unity. At American Wild Horse Conservation, we stand ready and committed to do just that. Our mission is to rally new allies around science-backed, humane, and fiscally responsible management solutions that reflect the treatment Americans expect for federally protected animals.

Grassroots supporters—people like you—are the foundation of AWHC. Together, we’ve built the largest grassroots base in the history of this issue. Now, we must grow even stronger to ensure our voices are heard in Washington, D.C. We’re the last line of defense between wild horses and the threat of mass destruction or slaughter, and we are a force for change that cannot be ignored.

Thank you for standing with us. With your commitment, we’re ready to roll up our sleeves and defend the wild spirit of the West. This is our moment to unite, mobilize, and continue the fight for the protections that wild horses and burros so rightly deserve

Stay Wild,
