It's been a year since my last review and Deb never fails to amaze me. Her dedication to the animals and making sure they are trained and ready for their new homes is paramount. She strives for success stories. She is tireless in her efforts. This is one Rescue that is as top notch as you can get. I only wish others would follow her example of" how to do it right". Please go to her website and check out Beech Brook Farm in Mystic Ct., you will be delighted.

Beech Brook rescue is about endless devotion to the animals and to the staff of volunteers. Dedication and education is what sets this rescue apart from all the others. Careful consideration is given to all who wish to adopt. Deb goes above and beyond most and it shows. She is a leader with strong conviction for what she does. I have been very impressed by her and her operation. Blessed are the animals that find their way to her farm. Each animal is loved and cared for on an individual bases.

I started volunteering at Beech Brook Farm over a year ago. I admire their dedication of rescuing equines from going to slaughter. I think because slaughtering is illegal in United States we don't realize that many many equines are sold at auctions, put on a trailer and driven into Canada and Mexico. There is where they are slaughtered. Thanks to Beech Brook Farm that they give these equines a second chances of life in a happy loving home.

I've adopted several horses from another rescue so I understand firsthand the hardwork and dedication that goes into caring for these amazing creatures.

The only change I would make is that they acquire more volunteers so they can continue their mission. Without volunteers they can only take in a limited amount which means more equines go to slaughter. I try not to look at it that way. In the big picture I try to view it as if we can save one horse Beech Brook is accomplishing their mission.
Beech Brook Farm and Deborah work tirelessly day in and day out with the rescues. She also takes time to teach young volunteers all about horses and their needs. I appreciate all that she does and wish I could do more to help in this worthy cause...Rescuing beautiful horses.

I wanted to help with rescuing horses so I offered to foster for Beechbrook. I ended up adopting a beautiful TWH that was rescued from the killpen in NJ. Deborah was so efficient in getting him saved, arranging transport and quarantine. When I visited the farm, it was super clean, all the horses were well cared for and happy, Deborah took her time to show us around and we were pleased with the whole operation. This is a wonderful rescue to deal with. I would adopt again from Beechbrook in a heartbeat.

I found this farm through my daughter who wanted to volunteer. She grew up on our profesioanl horse facility in Vermont (472 acres), barns and indoor arena for hunter, jumpers, and, when I etired from that crazy world, Tennessee Walking horses for pleasure. What wonderful, dedicated people we found at Beech Brook. All have the same goal, to save horses that can be rehabilitated, and find them good homes.

Beech Brook Farm is a wonderful organization made up of a relatively small group of dedicated volunteers who get a large amount of work done! The horses who are lucky enough to make it into this rescue are given the best loving care possible. Deborah is tireless in her efforts to save horses from the kill pens, transport them to the rescue, care for them, and find loving adoptive homes. This is a great place to volunteer!

I started volunteering at Beech Brook Farm Equine Rescue recently because I had the desire to help and support this amazing cause. I have 3 horses who I adopted from a rescue and the feeling you get by knowing you are making a difference in the lives of these amazing animals. Beech Brook does just that. They provide these animals with a second chance of life with hope of placement into a loving home. While I am blessed that I am able to provide them with a home there are many other ways to help. I started volunteering at a rescue almost four years ago and thought I would do it for a while and here I am. The joy I receive is truly immeasurable.
