Help Save 14 Horses Over the weekend Whispering Hearts Horse Rescue rescued 14 starving horses. They desperately need your help to care for these animals. There were 14 in all, many ready to have foals and so emaciated. This is why I do what I do, what a sin!!!! We are looking for monetary donations or feed donations to bring these horse where they should be. They will need vet care, worming, fungal infection treatment, lice treatment and much feed. Our wish list is below: mare and foal feed sweet feed high fat a fibre feed wormers fungal shampoo dry kill lice treatment powder We will need a lot of hay to keep these guys going as they haven't stopped eating since they arrived on Saturday. If you can help, please contact Brenda by email or forward this email to anyone you think may be interested in helping. Together we can make a difference.
Equine Niagara News is also collecting donations for delivery to Whispering Hearts in Hagersville. If you would like to make a contribution please deliver to Saturn Stables, 2783 Oille St., St. Catharines, ON L2R 6P7 no later than 10 am, Saturday, September 5th. We will be leaving by noon for Hagersville.
Thank you! Debi Katsmar.

Welcome To The Fall Fair Special Edition of Equine Niagara News
I apologize this has been put together rather hastily. That being said, however, I believe you will find all the links and information you need pertaining to dates and the horse shows here. The Royal is covered fairly limited as it will be featured in an upcoming issue of Equine Niagara News on it's own - I'm sure.
The biggest news I think is the addition of the Can Am Wind Rider Challenge, presented by Welland Toyota to the Welland Fair. There is a lot of talk about the Challenge, and by the sounds of things many are gearing up to compete in this unique all-breed show.
I hope the information is valuable and helps you plan your horse shows for the next month or so. |
