21year-old Al and 16-year-old Max, both Haflingers, were housed in small, makeshift stalls and had not been turned out from their stalls for more than two years. Both horses are now getting the much-needed medical, dental and hoof care they so desperately needed. They are both enjoying their roomy stalls in Billie’s Barn at Rescue Village, and time in the pasture, not to mention nutritious treats and affection from staff and volunteers!
While having a dedicated barn may be unique for a humane society, the 800 animals that have temporarily called Billie’s Barn home since 2005 sure do appreciate that Rescue Village is there to help them.
