'If someone can make money off the back of a horse they will' - A new non-profit is trying to give hope to forgotten equines. The organization rescues horses and donkeys from kill pens in other parts of the country. JFRANCHIREPORTS
Liberty Sanctuary was founded by Debra West in late 2022. “We pay their bail,” West said. “They call it bail like these beautiful equines are actually in jail.”
In 2023, the sanctuary welcomed 17 equines. Many are shy and timid due to the trauma of living in a kill pen. “It would be really great if he could make a riding horse for someone someday,” Howard said. “He may end up just being a herd animal that can be handled.” West supports the S.A.F.E. Act. The proposed bi-partisan federal legislation would ban the practice of sending horses to international slaughterhouses.
