HERD - Is a 501C3 non-profit equine rescue group in the Foothills of North Carolina. Learn more about HERD at our website www.herdrescue.org

OUR MISSION
Save as many horses as possible from the slaughter pipeline to Mexico and Canada

Restore rescued horses to their best possible physical and mental health

Carefully evaluate and professionally train each horse to a

llow them to maximize their potential - to find what they love to do. Based on the horse’s capabilities, match every rescue to an appropriate, loving, caring forever home. Provide ongoing support and monitoring to horses and owners post placement

THE HERD PROGRAM
Horses coming to HERD are housed at facilities and pastures provided by farms owned by volunteers and members of the HERD rescue team. We focus rescue efforts on horses with the greatest chance of full rehabilitation and rehoming. Occasionally we can take in babies or extremely debilitated cases knowing they be with us for a longer time. Every horse’s progress, treatments and training are carefully tracked in detail. Horses in HERD's care receive professional training at least 2 times per week.
