Rescued Horses Running Free at the Duchess Sanctuary!

I’m Mimi Ausland from Freekibble.com and GreaterGood. I recently spent the day at Duchess Sanctuary – where nearly 200 formerly abused and abandoned horses now live out their days exploring the 1,120 acre sanctuary that I can best describe as an oasis.[media height="270" width="480" provider="youtube" type="iframe" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/sIVdR5N5rh4?feature=oembed"]

Most of the mares were rescued from the PMU, or pregnant mare urine, industry. These mares used to spend their days standing in narrow, uncomfortable stalls, for months at a time while their urine was collected to make hormone replacement drugs for women.

It was hard to picture the horses at Duchess ever being treated in this inhumane way, as we watched them gallop across rolling hills and graze the green pastures.

Freekibble and GreaterGood are proud to support the Duchess Sanctuary. We’re grateful for all the people who care for and save these majestic horses.
