More than 100 PMU ranches have lost
their contracts in 2003 and another 30 ranches lost their contract in 2005.
These ranches have closed, so their mares and foals are in dire need of homes. We
are working with the United Pegasus Foundation to find homes for the Premarin
mares, foals, geldings, and stallions. Most of these horses are of draft and Quarter Horse bloodlines.
There are thousands of horses in the PMU program
that need to be saved! We are trying to adopt out as many as we can.
You can find pictures of the horses we are adopting out
under the links above. The ranchers were using the
mares for urine collection; and now that it is not an option, they want to
get rid of them as soon as possible. These horses will end up at
auctions and slaughter houses if we do not save them. The farms are
only willing to hold for a limited time to allow us to purchase them.
Please help us save
these horses. These horses are coming from Canada and it will
take a lot of money to purchase them from the farms, get
them over the border, transport, vaccinate, and care for them. Please help us find them
good homes!!!
