Notice: We want to apologize for any inconvenience that the move to our new 10 acre rescue facility might have caused you. We had very limited internet and phone access as we worked to get the new facility up and going.

The Hay May Days
This is our first annual Hay May Days fundraiser. It's the time of year again that the hay is being cut and fresh hay is for sale. As you can imagine NER uses a lot of hay and we have the opportunity to get hay delivered for a very good deal. 3 twined meadow grass hay at a mere $8.50 a bale delivered for large quantities. We would need a semi track load of hay, about 25 tons of hay, a total of about 400 bales. NER goes through about 70 tons of hay a year and the more horses we rescue the more hay we need. NER is counting on you to help do your part of helping to save horses by donating the money to help pay for the hay. All you have to do is donate the money to pay for as many bales as you like to donate, whether it is 1 or all. Every bale is definitely needed and will be enjoyed by a rescued horse.  On our home page at www.SaveTheHorse.com there will be a Paypal donation button that will allow you to donate as many hay bales as you would like. There will also be a fundraiser hay bale thermometer so can see where we are in the Hay May Days.  The hay is about half the price as at the feed store and the more money that is saved from the high prices of hay will help save more horses that are out the just waiting for someone to save them and give them the love they so badly deserve.

Charlie Boy
 10-5-07  Charlie Boy became a long term rehab resident of NER when he came to us back in October 2006 with a body score of -1. We really didn't know if he was going to make it he, was so emaciated. He was in very serious condition5-13-07 and we were very concerned about his future. 
  After a long rehab Charlie Boy has been adopted and  place in his new forever home. One of his sponsors adopted him on Mother's Day. It was really hard to say good-bye to this horse that we had nursed back to health   from one that was almost dead. Charlie Boy was all bones when he came to us and we watched him regain his strength and enjoy life to the fullest.
  NER staff will miss this amazing horse that was able to almost touch death, yet was able to conquer it!

New Rescue Facility
    NER staff has been working harder then ever getting our rescue facility in running order, it is still not done by any stretch of the imagination but we are making progress. The round pen now has sand in it, the 4 acre pasture is becoming smaller as we are making smaller pens for individual horses.  We also have a 12' x 20' tack room. We have been putting water lines in and so much more.  It is coming a long beautifully. There are so many items needed to get the new facility in perfect working order, but we know that with time and your support it will all come together. The number 1 thing on the need list is an office where the computers, printers, files, etc. can be safely kept and so adopters can do the necessary paper work for adopting a horse without it blowing away. We hope to have the funds to be able to get the office soon. We want to thank everyone that has given there support to NER it would not be the same without you. If everyone does what he or she can, then much will be accomplished.
