Welcome
The Beginning
UPDATE Support the Horse Slaughter Prevention Act now in the Senate
-- contact your state senators and tell them you would like them to support this bill. See our web page to learn about
the cruelty and inhumane practices of the KILL HOUSES. The slaughter houses in the United States have thankfully been closed.
However they still exist in Mexico and Canada. YES, horses from the United States are still being shipped to those slaughter
houses.

Mustangs
R Horses Rescue Ranch is a non-profit organization, started by five concerned, committed, horse-loving women. We are
located in Clinton County, near DeWitt, Iowa and are operating in the central portion of Eastern Iowa.
Our mission
is to provide shelter, loving care, rehabilitation, retirement and adoption services for abandoned, abused, neglected, and
unwanted Mustangs.
Though our primary focus is on Mustangs, no breed of horse or horse in need will be turned away.

Mustangs
The Mustang, so
mystic, so majestic, so grand,
A symbol of freedom across our great land.
Across lands and across times many stories
have been told,
Of all the wonders and mysteries that these creatures do hold.
The Mustang is our nations noble
steed,
Blessed by God with perseverance, beauty, intelligence and speed.
Through hardships and trials the mustangs
survive,
Bringing to all the glory of being alive.
The Mustang is bred by Gods loving hand,
A
gift so grand that God has given to man.
Created as only God could according to his plan,
These horses add beauty
and grace to our land.
The Mustang through plains, valleys and mountains run free,
And mustangs now gentled are
friends to you and me.
The Mustang so giving, try to please in all that they do,
And only ask for understanding and
kindness in return from you.
The Mustang is a friend indeed tried and true,
He puts all his faith, love and trust
in you.
Through gentle hands and a loving touch,
These Mustangs learn to love you so much.
The Mustang, willing,
caring and faithful indeed,
Has been in trusted by God to you and to me.
In our hands we pray that they meet no harm,
And can live out their lives in peace without alarm.
The Mustang, whether driving, riding or just a friend in
need,
Is the most true friend you will ever have indeed.
So I thank God for without my Mustangs I know not what I
would do,
And I pray that God will bless you with their special friendship too.

Sabra was our first adoption. She was adopted from the
BLM as a yearling filly.
In working with her to overcome her wild insticts, our director's love for horses, most especially
Mustangs, was born.
Over the course of one summer she went from being a skiddish youngster to a calm, loving and trusting
friend.
While Sabra has had a good home, the same can not always be said for other Mustangs adopted from the BLM.
The BLM has strict requirements for those who adopt wild Mustangs but they do not have the resources to monitor them throughout
their lives.
Our hope is to offer Mustangs, or any horse, a safe haven when home is no longer that place.
