“That task that we Americans now face will test us to the uttermost. Never before have we been called upon for such a prodigious effort. Never before have we had so little time in which to do so much. ‘These are the times that try men’s souls.’” FDR, 2/23/1942. Patience. Hope.
Jess is gone 😭
When we rescued her, we were told not to expect a miracle. Jess had other ideas.
The illness never left her & eventually took her but it did not take away the love, safety and happiness she experienced with us. Those belong to her forever. 🐾
Please light her way over the bridge

💔 **DAYS HAVE PASSED. PIERRE’S HELP HAS COMPLETELY STALLED.** 💔
Days are turning into weeks, and Pierre is still sitting in limbo at a Texas kill pen. No new help has come, and his life is officially on the line. He is running out of time. 😭
He is one half of a bonded pair, terrified and waiting for a miracle. We cannot let him face the worst simply because the momentum stopped. We need a breakthrough **RIGHT NOW** for his ransom and transport.

Please don't look away. Retweet, tag rescues, and pledge. Let’s get him out of there! 🙏👇

🙏🇺🇦 Blessed by the Pope, the medical transport convoy for border guards has set off for Ukraine
Almost 30 vehicles, including 20 resuscitation vehicles, are already heading to the Ukrainian border guards.
Turkey's dogs don't disappear because they are safe
They disappear because they aren't algorithmically pleasing
No celebrity rescues. No dramatic before & after videos. No heart warming endings
Just millions of dogs caught in a crisis most of the world scrolls past.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ Baby Harlan ❤️❤️❤️❤️
We just adore him. With so much heartache in our hearts right now with Eleanor still somewhere out there, this little boy has brought a much-needed ray of light into our days. Every time we look at him, our hearts feel just a little bit brighter.
Eleanor is never far from our thoughts. We miss her every single day, we worry as each day goes by 💔💔💔💔
We long for the moment she is safely back home with us.
There is a dark cloud hanging over us until that day comes, but we will never stop hoping or fighting to bring our girl back. 💔💔💔
In the meantime, just look at Baby Harlan. He has come on so well and is growing stronger every day. He's an absolute little dote. He's still being fed around the clock, we want to say a huge thank you to all the MLHR Team who go above and beyond for him every single day. Your dedication means the world to us.❤️❤️
To all our followers and supporters, thank you for being part of our horse rescue family. We truly couldn't do this without you. We need your support every day, to help us continue caring for animals in need and to keep searching and fighting for Eleanor's safe return.💔💔❤️❤️
If you're able to help, please consider making a donation. Every donation, no matter how small, helps us continue this important work.

Our support against the heinous #DogMeatTrade in #China
Sharing from .@WeAreNotFood

"From Sina News
On June 10th, in Shijiazhuang, Hebei, China
"A man staked out an alley at 5 a.m., stealing a Border Collie from its owner's doorstep while the owner slept. The dog howled in distress as it was dragged onto a tricycle."
•••
I think this is clearly a dog thief. Stealing dogs for dog meat restaurants or slaughterhouses. Easy money for him.
The dog meat trade ( the commercial slaughtering of dogs for the consumption of humans and selling dog meat) is illegal.
Eating dog meat is legal.
Stealing other peoples' property (dogs, cats...) is illegal.
But why are dogs kept outside unattended? The owners know that they can be stolen."
#BoycottChina until it puts an end to this hell !
Don't buy products from China.
Don't #VisitChina.
China has no rules - no piety - no control - no punishment - no compassion - no empathy
BREAKING: Undercover footage shows the nightmarish warehouse cells where NYC carriage horses are trapped in deplorable conditions when not in dangerous NYC traffic.
These poor animals have a HORRIFIC LIFE of walking the busy streets , in and out of congested traffic in hot and cold temperatures. These horses NEVER touch grass, never graze in pastures and no socialization with other horses .
They have NO pasture for grazing and interacting with other horses as herd animals NEED to be healthy and they are denied proper veterinary care.
THIS HAS TO STOP. TAKE ACTION BELOW TO END THIS ABUSE.
Everyone can call NYC Council Health Committee Chair Lynn Schulman at 718.544.8800 and press 0 to leave a message to ask her to cosponsor and fast- track #RydersLaw Intro 967 to end this criminal horse abuse!
NEW YORKERS: please make a quick call or send an email to your own New York City COUNCIL MEMBER urging them to POST sponsor and pass intro 967,
#RydersLaw.
