Wonderful horse rescue group needs emergency help -- please donate!
Hi, I am the owner of Serenity Equine Rescue and Rehabilitation. I have been working on the PEC
case since last May. I have taken 22 horses from PEC, the last 10 were released to my custody in
Feb of this year with Animal Control standing by.
We had all the horses evaluated by a vet upon arrival and the vet stated in her reports that the
horses suffered from "severe neglect and animal cruelty". We took pictures of the issues with each
horse and documented everything. We also have been collecting statements from people who have had
experiences with Dean. We prepared a binder of documentation , vet reports, pictures of all the
horses and their specific problems, signed statements from people who had experiences with PEC/Dean
and gave all of it to AC.
Friday of last week AC sent Probable Cause paperwork to the prosecuting attorney's office and this
past Tuesday Dean was charged with 4 counts of 2nd degree animal cruelty with maybe more to come...
Her arraignment date is April 29th. We have been rehabilitating the horses and many still have along
way to go. Serenity is really struggling to care for all the horses and I am in need of some support.
I would be grateful if you could share this story with the horse community. Here is our website address

for any help you can give.

Foundation honors area man
Jerry Finch of Hitchcock, TX has received the 2005 Animal Kingdom Kindred
Spirit Award from the Doris Day Animal Foundation for his work with Habitat for
Horses. Finch is the founder and director of Habitat for Horses, a nonprofit
organization that houses or finds foster homes for horses rescued from abuse
and neglect.The Doris Day Animal Foundation was founded in 1998 by actress and
singer Doris Day to integrate animal protection into programs, products and
services to assist children, families and communities.
This year, thousands of horses will be sold without disclosure to buyers
representing foreign-owned slaughterhouses. These unscrupulous "killer buyers"
go to auctions and respond to "for sale" ads only to resell our horses for
"gourmet" meat in France, Japan, Italy and Belgium.
They have succeeded in confusing the American public with ludicrous terms like
"humane horse slaughter."
Americans do not eat their horses. Horses are companion animals. We would no
more allow the "regulation" of the slaughter and export of our dogs and cats to
countries where their meat is eaten than we should our horses.
The horrors of the auction, feed lot, transport, and slaughter house need to be
brought to the public's attention. This website will give you a glimpse into
the "hush-hush" industry of slaughtering horses for human consumption.
