A bit of an update on things that are happening this month. Right now I am raising money for Eagle Hill Equine Rescue. This is
a wonderful place that saves, rehabs and adopts out horses. One of
their main missions is to help Nurse Mare Foals. If you do not know
what Nurse Mare Foals are it is quite a sad story to say the least.
With the breeding of Thoroughbreds the mare has to be kept open for
more breeding so their foal is taken away so that the mare can be bred
again fairly soon after the birth. So they are given over to a draft
horse female to nurse them, a Nurse Mare. Yet, these nurse mares are
kept constantly bred so that they can produce milk for the foals they
are nursing. Many of the stables see the foals that are produced form
the draft horses as discards and in many cases euthanize these foals.
This is where Eagle Hill comes into play. They rescue these foals so
that they can be bridle, bit and saddle trained and adopted out to new
families.
So for this month and the coming months I am raising money from the
sale of my Nature prints, 25% of the profits from those prints will be going
directly to Eagle Hill Equine Rescue. If you cannot buy my prints think
of directly helping out Eagle Hill they have a list of supplies that
they need for the upcoming season. http://www.eaglehillequinerescue.com
