BEAR VALLEY RESCUE

ABOUT US

Bear Valley Rescue was founded in 2004, and we registered federally as a charity in January of 2005. 

 

Our Mission

 

• To promote animal welfare by saving from slaughter usable and healthy horses and finding them good homes

• To promote animal welfare by rescuing injured or ailing animals from auctions and feedlots or abusive situations and rehabilitating them, or alleviating their suffering

• To promote animal welfare by educating the public on the plight of unwanted or aging horses and other animalsTo promote animal welfare by networking with other rescue organizations and providing support through these networks for finding and placing distressed animals

We have found wonderful homes for many amazing horses. The Rescue is located in west-central Alberta, on 40 acres. We are so fortunate to have understanding neighbours who are very generous in helping out, mainly by donating the use of land for pasture for the horses. If we can find homes for these animals, we can go out and save more of them. It is really sad the number of good horses that end up being slaughtered because no one wants them. All our animals are wormed and vaccinated regularly. They are friendly, even if they haven't been worked with much (it's surprising how long it takes to brush that many horses!).
