Full story
With a pandemic, hurricanes, and fires, several perfectly good horses in 2020 have been sent to auction and are now in kill pens, including kids camp horses due to COVID-19 causing many to close this year or close down permanently. I've been skeptical about (at least some) kill pens profiting off of the soft hearted people, however, this year has some different circumstances. The price per pound versus the price to bail them out is actually quite comparable.
We plan to bail out a horse from Oklahoma Stroud Kill Pen prior to it being sent to slaughter. This pen seems the most upfront about the horses, advertise even the most unhandled ones in an effort to give them another chance, send videos, disclose health concerns, scars, etc. If you want to play a part in our journey, we appreciate any help with the little things!
Purchases go toward vet post-purchase exam(s), health certificate and any applicable pen fees, and transport costs. We intend to cover the bail of whichever horse appears to be the best fit for us and its future herd-mates :)
