To those of you who raised your voices and demanded action—we can’t thank you enough.

Thanks in part to your advocacy, Animal Welfare Services did step in, and again charges against Stephanie Redlick have now been laid – she is also facing multiple criminal charges for fraud. [Details including CTV NEWS coverage here.]

But before the seizure, four other horses were quietly surrendered by Redlick to a compassionate local family.

Tragically, one of those four horses, Seattle Sunrise had to be euthanized—despite every effort, and significant expense, to save him.

Another, Xena, a gentle 2-year-old Percheron cross, urgently needed a specialist dental extraction, that cost over $3,000. [More about Xena’s story here.]

She also requires hernia repair surgery, and is currently undergoing follow up care from the first surgery.

Every dollar helps.

If you’re in a position to give, please consider donating today.

Together, we can keep showing up for horses like Xena.
