I met Horsesisters on Facebook several years ago. After awhile, I began donating to them. Horsesisters works very hard to provide for the horses in their care and also fight for the protection of premarin horses and other national horse related issues. I often receive pictures of the ranch and updates on the horses. They have recently opened a store, the proceeds of which go to help the horses. I am always impressed with the creativity of this non-profit and their willingness to put in the effort to make their plans a reality.

Horsesister's has a Horse Angel program. You can become an Angel to a horse in their program for a few dollars a month. Your monthly donation will make a difference. Horsesisters cares for many horses and you can choose the horse you would like to sponsor. They also run the H.E.A.T. Horsesisters Equine Assisted Therapy Program that reaches out to those in need of this Therapy. You can not go wrong making a monthly donation to this 501(c)3 non-profit organization. I have received updated pictures and reports on the progress of the horse I sponsor- Nova. If you love horses, but can not have one of your own right now please consider committing to making a monthly donation and know that you are making the difference. You can find out more by going to their website or following them on facebook where they share almost daily their work. Their work is an open book.

HorseSisters is my very favorite place to visit when I need a break. Everyone there is sweet and gracious, and they make visitors feel like royalty. The horses are kind and gentle, well cared for and it shows. How I wish I lived closer. Anytime I visit I leave there refreshed and full of love for what Ron and Clairese, and all the great volunteers, do for the horses and the people in Titusville. Keep up the good work!

I have been a friend of HorseSisters for nearly ten years and am now on the Board of Directors. This agency is full of kind and loving people who care very much about their animals and their community too! Please come out to the ranch and see for yourself. I have always left there with so much peace and love in my heart. Horse Happy Hour is every Thursday (weather permitting). Starts at 4 pm. Grab a bag of carrots or apples and come on out. Meet the people, meet the horses! Feel the love!

I love HorseSisters! I have visited a few times and find the horses to be so friendly and people loving, gentle giants who love kids and adults alike. The whole place is based on love, honesty, and a deep caring for both horses and humans too. You WILL leave this ranch with a great feeling of peace.

Horsesisters is the best Rescue I know of. They not only help horses in need, they help children in need also a great bond. Horses are great healers and need to do what they are good at As for the children healing makes them better people and the responsibility of learning how to take care of horses is a great teacher.
I support Horsesisters all the way. I am involved in rescue so I know.

Horsesisters is an incredible place. Doing equine therapy for children along with being a Horse Rescue. You can't ask for better people. Equine therapy helps those afflicted with physical and mental problems strive and feel a part of this world. Horses also make us use muscles that we usually do not use which is good for the disabled and the physically fit.

As a horse rescue this group is incredible, they have all their plans in order, are the most devoted, hard workers and are solely there for the horses and children. Bravo HorsSisters!!

My review is directed toward the misinformation and half truths spread by one, Lynn Lambo. Ms. Lambo has provided reviews to discredit HorseSisters as this organization struggles to maintain their donor base so essential to all charities. As stated by Ms. Lambo she does indeed spend an
inordinate amount of time maintaining a Facebook group dedicated to presenting HorseSisters in a negative light. There are a handful of members of this “group” page and it seems Ms. Lambo does the lion’s share of posting, with no check and balance as she chooses who and who is not a member. Basically, no one challenges her. With that said, HorseSisters is a charity which survives on donations. Ms. Lambo attacks HorseSisters’ work to secure donors. Why? These donations provide the necessary funds to care for the horses Ms. Lambo so emphatically states she worries about. ??? Ms. Lambo, though not participating in any feeding or other care of these animals, presents the horses as “food insecure.” One has to ask, “how would she know?” What intimate knowledge could she possible have? ??? According to public records, three horses were removed from HorseSisters and a Fit to Own hearing held by Brevard County. One was returned, and even as admitted by Ms. Lambo, was “deemed healthy” by the Court. The other two horses were of advanced age and were “remanded” to the individuals who were in the process of adopting them. For those who don’t understand the legal term Remand… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remand_(court_procedure) Based on the definition, it is obvious that by remanding the horses to the care of the adopters, the Court was taking the animals from the care of Brevard County Animal Services and placing them BACK IN THE CARE of the adopters. The Court, citing the financial difficulties facing HorseSisters, did not remove any horses from their care but in fact, found HorseSisters FIT TO OWN. To ensure the correctness of the decision, the Court allowed Brevard County Animal Services to monitor HorseSisters for a period of one year. That has been several months ago and no adverse actions have been instituted against HorseSisters to date meaning…. THE HORSES ARE BEING CARED FOR. Therefore, it is my position that Lynn Lambo is single handedly blocking donations to HorseSisters based on misinformation which, in addition to reducing funds to the charity, also has served as interference to the investigative function of Brevard Animal Services in contradiction to Order of Judge Friedland and the law. Lynn Lambo’s actions to interfere with this charity have created the false appearance of failings on the part of HorseSisters but even with the set backs, they have persevered and continue to move forward. Lynn Lambo appears to live in a world where she believes herself the moral compass by which we all must live. She appears to not be able to recognize that others have benefited from this charity and that many people would like for the charity to continue its operations absent her interference, including with the lawful processes designed to reveal the truth and justice. Where I come from, this is called DELUSION, Ms. Lambo.

I am a retired police officer. I am embarrassed by the comment posted by Firefighter Mike. The fact that he uses his public office, via his icon, to vilify a private non-profit horse rescue is positively disgusting. Mike states that he “turned around at the gate because the place did not look legit and the lady who promised to be there was not there at the time we agreed upon”. Doesn’t look “legit”. What was he expecting, Cinderella’s Castle? This is a non-profit horse ranch and anyone possessing a third brain cell would realize that. He turned around at the gate. How does that qualify him to know one single thing about this rescue? The lady that wasn’t there to meet him the very second he appeared at the gate, her name is Clairese. She is a woman in her late 50’s with a heart condition and mobility problems. Way to go Hero Mike. I don’t know what kind of comment she made regarding his parenting skills but I can assure you that the way he acted in front of his children taught them that they should behave this way as well. This rescue has been under attack by a small group of malignant people including a couple of government employees in retaliation for Clairese’s refusal to accept wrongdoings. Hmm I wonder if this firefighter knows any of them. Now I will tell you the truth. I know Clairise through another rescue. She has demonstrated integrity. She is truthful. She has a heart bigger than Canada when it comes to taking care of animals. The worst thing she has done has been to reach out to ask for help when she was low on fundraising income to care properly for these animals. Instead of helping her she was attacked. At some point this horrible behavior will result in enough damage to warrant a tort action against individuals. I will lead the fundraising effort for this if it becomes necessary. I am that furious!

Pleased to see that the community is stepping up and helping this organization. With the influx of support they have been able to provide the care the horses have required and volunteers are working hands on with them. They may be room for them to potentially expand and help additional horses with support! Please I strongly encourage you to go to an Open House event and see all the horses and then discuss how you can help them prosper. Personal visits are very inspiring and will motivate you to take personal action! The ranch is open once a week and I promise it will be worth your time!

I have NEVER seen a more CARING and COMPASSIONATE group of people. There first priority is the horses and just like any other Rescue of any kind from time to time they need your help with volunteers and donations but that is just todays economy. Whenever another person is having hard times we should NOT tear them down but help lift them up. Instead of listening to any of these reports bad or good we/you should go out and lend a hand!

Horse Sisters are such caring folks not just for horses, animals but also for the humans who care for animals. When it comes to the care of their horses or any creature in their care the love and devotion is awesome. I am proud and honored to be associated with this devoted organization.

sometimes we need to look at the facts to determine the truth. i have followed the case of Horsesisters and assessed the information given by both sides . last year this group was sited for neglect of the horses by people who seamed to have vendeta against them. there was a couple of horses that looked really bad in the group. pictures told the story of serious problems . was it from neglect ? i think not! and courts also found no reason to believe there was . the big clencher was the bloodwork done on horses. it was found that there were problems but not from lack of feeding . this is an emotional thing , if you believe something is starving you get quite alarnmed ! but there are sick and old animals in hospitals and under the best of care that eventually look pretty ruff dispite tbut also he best of care. some cases call for euthainisa , some for paicent waiting as individual goes thru ups and downs but in the end everything dies. i believe that this is a organization that needs and deserves help. not only do i go by what the courts found but by a very telling viedo of ac trying to pick up a horse , load it in too small a trailer by staff obivously not horsemen and for no reason that i could see except the person in charge pulling rank. . if intrested in this case please contact them personally and look into all the drama which has been documented and preserved as evidence of the inocents of threir actions . if you have doubts call the director and hear her side. also one of the unfounded points was the horse in question was not given vet and denist care , really ? There just so happened to be pictures and vet/denist bills to prove otherwise. really this is in the past and i hate to even bring it back up but it has been brought up on this form by others . there have been numerous months since then that these horses and group has been inspected randomly by county and no breach of care has been sited. my oppion is only one but i hope its weight is put on the side of pro for horsesisters . they really want to help the clients and take care of their horses, with this bad publisity and the economy on the space coast of florida they could use some positive support.
