We were told Annie was ten months old, but in fact is closer to two. She has two club feet and is underweight. Annie was advertised on Craigs list for free or she would have been sent through the auction again, with a high risk of going to slaughter. She was rescued by Equine Voices in April 2010 and is safe and sound at a foster home in Phoenix. Thank you Gwen Cleary for helping us rescue this sweet girl!    Pirate Pirate is an older mini who was rescued after his owner had to find a home for him. He is in his twenties and will live his life at the sanctuary. Pirate has already captured the hearts of many of the volunteers and his barn mate Taylor.  Nicholas Nicholas was the sole survivor of a barn fire several years ago and received horrific burns to his back. As if that wasn’t enough, this sweet guy ended up in the wrong hands. He got a fungal infection on his back and also in his hoof. When he came to Equine Voices from Phoenix in October 2009, he was slightly underweight and had difficulty walking. He’s making great progress and is getting healthier each day. Full story, click here.   Shiloh Shiloh is a beautiful, black mare who came to Equine Voices in February 2010.

Lorenzo, Jazz and Valentino UPDATE: All three were adopted in the Fall of 2009! On May 27, 2009, Lorenzo, Jazz and Valentino, three geldings, were rescued by Equine Voices. All were found by Arizona Livestock officers. It is believed they were used to smuggle drugs across the U.S.-Mexican border. Drug smugglers often pile pounds upon pounds of drugs on the horse’s back and, when someone comes to unload the drugs, the horse is left to fend for itself with no food, water or shelter. These three geldings arrived at Equine Voices thin and weak. Jazz, the palomino, had horrific sores on his back and hindquarters. The horses are now at Desert Springs Equestrian Center in Marana where they are being rehabilitated. Once they are well enough, they will be available for adoption.    Carlie UPDATE: Carlie was adopted in January 2010! At the end of January 2009, Equine Voices received a call from a woman who was concerned about the welfare of a horse in Amado, AZ. The horse was skinny, she said, and looked like her hooves hadn’t been trimmed in over a year. Within a week, Equine Voices had made arrangements to rescue Carlie. The gray mare’s owner agreed to give Carlie to Equine Voices so Jean, Equine Voice’s ranch manager, and Gina, a volunteer, brought her to the ranch. Upon arrival, one could see Carlie’s ribs and hip bones even through her thick winter hair. Her hooves had long been neglected and she was hungry so Equine Voices moved into action to give Carlie some TLC. It didn’t take long to see Carlie’s progress, and now she is a vivacious, beautiful dapple gray mare waiting for her forever home.    Diamond Rio Diamond Rio came to Equine Voices at the beginning of January 2009. He was found by Arizona Livestock officers lost and alone wandering in the desert. The signs indicated that he was used as a drug smuggling horse and may have been stolen off a ranch in Mexico. Rio is a very sweet and handsome 6-year-old gelding, but he has an old injury on his front leg that will prevent him from ever being ridden. He is available for adoption at Equine Voices and would a wonderful companion horse.   ...More Rescued Horses at Equine Voices. | |
