Donation Thanks

MWHR would like to give a very special “THANK YOU” to Steve Urvan who donated some office furniture to us and we were able to sell it and raise $1,180.00 to go towards the care of our mustangs.

We got to check in on one of our BLM burros a few weeks ago at his forever home in Woodstock, GA. Barney is enjoying life on the farm with Michelle Allred. He spends his days and nights out in the pasture with several other horses and ponies. He is still a little shy butContinue reading “Adoption Update – Barney”

Adoption Update – Sweetie Pie

Sweetie Pie is a 19 year old brown and white paint mustang mare that was captured as a yearling in Salt Wells Creek, WY. She came to MWHR several years ago with another mustang, Spark Plug. Sweetie and Sparky were trained by MWHR founder, David Hesse, and severed as our ambassadors for many years. WeContinue reading “Adoption Update – Sweetie Pie”

Huge thank you to Kelly and LeeContinue reading “Volunteer Training Session”

New Entrance to MWHR!

We would like to say “thank you” to our volunteers who worked tirelessly to get our new gated entrance completed over the past few weekends. This new entrance will allow a truck and trailer to safely enter and exit our farm without having to back into the driveway.

The young ladies got to learn about mustangs and why they need our help, as well as assist in cleaning up around the farm and grooming several of our resident mustangs. We truly appreciate their help and lookContinue reading “Pope Volunteers”

We appreciate everyone coming out and supporting the efforts of both of our rescues! As our good friends at STH say “We Are Rescue” and it takes a village to saveContinue reading “Deck the Stalls”
