Donate to USERL now to assist neglected and abused horses! USERL is unique in that no property is owned to use donated funds for maintenance, property mortgage, taxes, etc. Therefore, donated funds are largely for the direct expenses related to the care of the horses in our program such as veterinary care, feed, hay, bedding and farrier services. In addition, USERL is primarily a volunteer organization with only 2 part-time employees. Therefore, your donation makes a direct impact on those that need it - the horses!

First horse of the New Year 2012
January 1, 2012:
2011 ended with a busy month, and began with a new horse in the program. This Palomino gelding was surrendered by his owner during a cruelty investigation. Two other horses, in good weight, are being rehomed to private parties. Conditions were unsanitary from small deeply muddy enclosures, and this aged gelding required more care than the owner could provide. Read more... at the USERL - NC Triangle Region website!

USERL shelters 4 horses from County Cruelty Investigation
February 17, 2012:
USERL is assisting a county with a sad case of neglect, and transported 4 to shelter and safety this evening. One was already dead on the property, with several of these not far behind. All four are in severe malnourished condition, with one mare possibly being pregnant. They are weak, lethargic and were at a time of great need to find help.
They were transported to a Triangle Region Quarantine/Rehab foster farm and are being monitored carefully.
The 3 youngest have not been handled so care has been taken to keep their stress levels down while they transition to a new environment. Read more... at the USERL - NC Triangle website.
