| Welcome to Golden Hills Ranch Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation, Inc. A 501(c)(3) nonprofit since June 2008. We here at the ranch would like to thank you for taking a look at us and hopefully for your consideration to donating money, time or your prays in our mission. Its hard work to be honest with you, i wake up every morning wondering how I'm going to make it through the day, then i walk down to the corrals to be greeted by whinnies and big brown eyes, makes everything worth it. Thank you again and remember your donation is tax deductible. Cecilia Hotchkiss Founder/President Mission Statement Our mission at Golden Hills Ranch Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation, Inc. is to improve the quality of life for all horses. We are a non profit 501(c)(3) publicly funded horse rescue and our mission is to save as many horses as we can. We are committed to the rescue and rehabilitation of horse and equine suffering from abuse or neglect and to find homes for those best suited to be with someone else. We also aim to improve the public awareness and knowledge of the standards of care necessary to take care of the horse both financially and physically through educating the public on the proper care, responsible horse ownership and all related issues involving equines. Each year countless numbers of equines are euthanized or sold at auction, there are those who for unforeseen circumstances as owners they can no longer take care of their hoofed friends, or prior to buying a horse did not think of the expense, time and energy it took to care for these animals, and there are also those who buy more horse than they can handle at their level of riding ability. We would love for the chance to give these horses a second chance at life and to find them homes where they will be taken care of properly. We take every step humanly possible to insure the new homes our horses go to have the proper facilities, proper care, the understanding and knowledge it takes to care for a horse for the remainder of their life . |

Everyone here at the ranch is into
rescues...My MALE dog Henry and his
kittens.
These orphan kittens were raises by him
from the time they were two days old and
no way was he going to let his sister
have one, well he finally gave in when
they were about 4 weeks old and let her
have one, SHE didn't know what to do
with it.
Who said guys don't make good moms!!!

| People we've had a problem here at the ranch, one that is serious in nature. Someone has decided that we are their person free hay pick up place and has stole a lot of hay...from the rescue!!! If someone had a problem they could have ask but they took it upon themselves to take from us what they needed. We need to raise funds to replace the hay so we can get the horses through winter, if anyone has any idea on what we can do please do share, I'm so angry and hurt that this happened...why would anyone steal from a rescue? The feed bill comes out of my personal pocket we don't have someone who pays for this we don't have some sort of outside funding. If you or someone you know can help their donation will be tax deductible, funds can be paid through paypal or sent to our PO box, my hay guy even takes Visa and Mastercard and he knows what happened here...contact me for his info if you would like to go this route. Help us help these horses, its not their fault they are in this situation and we take such good care of them...honestly when their new owners and trailers get her they don't want to leave LOL Just remember your donation is tax deductible and it is that time of the year again. Also please consider sponsoring a horse there are many here that have sanctuary and need your help also. Thank You C.C. Hotchkiss President |
