Help us with the wonderful horses and donkeys that we've rescued. Spend time at the Medford NJ stable where experienced people will teach you how to approach a horse and make friends, then give treats and build trust. Next you'll learn grooming, feeding, and exercise skills and be able to perform all kinds of equestrian care and activity tasks. Be sure to bring your boots when you come to meet the biggest four-legged friend you'll ever love.

About FORGOTTEN ANGELS EQUINE RESCUE

Mission Statement
Each year 125,000 horses are shipped to our borders where they are slaughtered for their meat which is sold in Asian and European markets. These animals have been abandoned...many are babies; some are sick, starving, badly neglected and are dumped in the auction kill pens. We go there and acquire as many as we can afford and bring them back to our stable. We nurture and rehabilitate these animals and restore their health and spirit, then we find them good, loving homes. We're making a difference, one horse at a time.
Description
We have been operating the stable for five years and in that time we have saved over 300 (horses, minis, donkeys, and ponies). 2019 was a trendsetting year for us. We were the driving force behind and new law enacted in the state of New Jersey that provides protection for horses from ending up at slaughter auctions. We recently teamed up with Spectracare to create a Equine Therapy Program for Veterans.
