Freedom Hill Horse Rescue

Freedom Hill Horse Rescue is dedicated to rescuing horses from neglect, abuse, abandonment, and slaughter, as well as helping to relieve the unwanted overflow of foals generated by the Premarin (PMU) & Nurse Mare  Industrys.

We are a group of people who care about horses and their quality of life.  We strive to improve the lives of horses by providing a safe haven for healing and rehabilitation. We strive to educate communities on issues such as:  what constitutes horse abuse and neglect; recognizing and reporting abuse; proper care and  feeding; and the importance of farrier care, vaccinations and regular worming.

A Great Time Was Had By All At Our Adoption and Family Fun Day on May 5, 2012!  Check back for an update with photos!!

 

April 24, 2012 

New friends came to see us today!  April was Autism Awareness Month, and we had the pleasure of a visit from the Autism Project of Owings, MD.  Kristy Alvarez of Desire Ministries along with Fannie Mae and Pharaoh welcomed the group to our rescue.  We are more than happy to share our horses with them, and are proud to be providing a service like this that brings so much joy and excitement to those dealing with these particular challenges.  Spending time with our horses, they feel empowered and successful, and have so much fun!  As you can see in the photos, our new Arabians Fannie Mae and Pharaoh adored the group members and allowed them to practice new skills at grooming and picking!  Those two Arabs are really something special!!  We, humans and horses alike, look forward to the next visit!  Come back soon!

 SUCCESS!!!

A great time was had by all at the open house for the 231 Farm, Home and Pet Center!  It was a super opportunity to meet new people, make new friends, see old friends, and promote our rescue.  The highlights of the day were our photo faceboard and Solomon the llama!  We all fell in love with Solomon, he was a fantastic smoocher!!  If you were there, it was great to see ya!  If you weren't, we missed you!!  Below are a few photos from the event.  Hope you enjoy them!
