Review for St Francis Horse Rescue & Retirement Farm Inc, Mellen, WI, USA

Rating: 4 stars  

Mary & Bill run a nice little mom and pop horse rescue. I mean that in a good way. They have placed quite a few horses and sometimes it takes a few tries to find the right home but the main thing I like is that they always get a vet's opinion on the quality of life of the animal and future prospects. Too many "rescues" just keep the horses alive to feel good about themselves and that does nothing for the animal. They are good people doing good work in a very tough economy and focus on retirement and rehab now so adoptable horses are limited. I hope they continue to do their rescue work.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

How they treat their animals.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Expand it but I know they do not want that. I would see that they have more fundraising going on to help more horses there.

Role:  Volunteer & Stall cleaning and helped with horses i.e. grooming etc.
