Arizona Department of Agriculture awards EqWBR new standing!

HUGE NEWS!!!!!!


Though we may be on the bottom of the list, it is only because we are the newest approved facility for the Equine Rescue Registry with the Arizona Department of Agriculture.

There are many horse rescues throughout the state, but only a few go through the rigorous process of meeting the rescue guidelines set forth by the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) and submit to the veterinary inspection process for this classification.  This inspection not only includes the care and husbandry of the horses, but the facility, environment, equipment, record keeping and so much more.

We would like to thank Dr. Kari Christianson of North Country Veterinary Clinic, who contacted us about the need to rescue of Babee earlier this year, for her support of EqWBR and her encouragement and willingness to see us complete this process including the inspection.  Thanks also goes to Lary Griffin and Dee Corcoran who both helped get the facility better equipped and organized for the care of the horses and preparing us for the inspection.

Here is a link to the Department of Agriculture's website if you want to check it out yourself:

If you click on our name on that page, it opens up to our application and approval documents.

This is AMAZING and we THANK YOU ALL for your continued support.   Please consider making a donation to help provide for the horses in our care and to assist even more not only California and Arizona, but throughout the country.

We are ECSTATIC!!!!
