Rescue Riders is an equine and farm animal rescue for neglected or unwanted equines and other animals found on a farm. The oak shaded pastures, with lush green grass are a dream come true to most of our horses. Our animals are first rehabbed back to health. The loving team of equine and farm professionals then decide if the animal is eligible for adoption or will stay on a permanent spa-cation at Rescue Riders facility.

🤠👢 HAPPY NATIONAL COWBOY BOOT DAY! 👢🤠

Around here, cowboy boots ain’t just something you wear for looks… they’re work boots with a little Southern sass! 😂

They’ve walked through mud, manure, rain, sunshine, and probably stepped in things we’re better off not talking about. 🤦‍♀️🤣 They’ve stood in stalls, chased chickens, fed horses, cleaned troughs, fixed fences, and loved on a whole lotta animals.

And let me tell ya… there’s just something about pulling on a pair of cowboy boots and heading out to the barn. ❤️🐴

They may get dirty, but that just means they’re doing their job.

So grab your boots, tip your hat, and go love on something that needs you today. ❤️

From our little piece of Florida country to yours…

Happy National Cowboy Boot Day, y’all! 🤠👢🐎🐐🐓🐖🫶

Y’all… I’m about to tell you something, and I know I ain’t the only one thinking it…

I AM SO DOGGONE TIRED OF THIS RAIN. 🌧️🙄

I mean, bless it. We have had enough water to float the whole dang county. 😂 And just when you think maybe, just maybe, the ground might dry out enough to walk across it without sinking up to your ankles…

Here comes MORE.

Lord, have mercy. 😩

Around here, rain ain’t just rain. It’s mud up to your knees, boots that weigh 10 pounds, wet hay, soggy feed, muddy pens, slick walkways, standing water, and animals looking at you like YOU personally ordered the weather. 😂🐴🐐🐓

You spend half the day trying to keep everybody dry, clean, fed and comfortable, only to turn around and realize you’re covered in mud from head to toe.

At this point, I don’t need an umbrella.

I need Noah to come pick me up. 😂🚢

I’m ready for some good old-fashioned Southern sunshine. ☀️
I want dry dirt.
I want dusty boots instead of muddy ones.
I want to walk across this farm without wondering if I’m about to lose a boot to the Georgia clay. 😂

So, Lord… we’ve had our share.

You can turn the faucet off now. We’re good. Really. We’ve got enough. 🙏😂☀️

Until then, we’ll keep on keeping on, because that’s what we do. We’ll take care of these babies, stomp through the mud, complain a little (okay… maybe A LOT 😂), and pray for sunshine.

Because this Southern girl is ready to see some blue sky! 💙☀️🐴❤️
Just some pics of some areas out here and then me and uncle Jesse and some chickens hiding out in the feed shed!

FOSTER FOUND: thank you everyone!!! Now we just need to find her forever home. Please reach out if you think she needs to go home with you.

🐾 A Little Girl With a Big Heart… and a Cat Who Needs Her Own Happy Ending 🐾

So, this story started with an 11-year-old little girl who wanted to do something special for her friend’s birthday. Her friend wanted a cat, so she went onto Marketplace and found a cat being rehomed for free.

Without telling Mom first, she arranged for the cat to be brought to her. An older gentleman dropped her off, and Mom soon found her daughter coming into the house carrying a very dirty carrier… with a cat inside. ❤️

Mom was understandably surprised, but now that this sweet girl is here, we want to help find her the safe, loving home she deserves.

🐾 She is a GIRL
🐾 She is already SPAYED
🐾 Her age is unknown
🐾 She came from an older gentleman who was rehoming her
🐾 She has a very sweet story and deserves a second chance

And the sweetest part? Another friend stepped up and donated everything she needs to get started:

🐾 Litter box
🐾 Litter
🐾 Cat food
🐾 Scratching toy

Everything is ready to go for her. 🥹❤️

Now we just need to find the right person who will open their heart and give this girl a forever home.

Sometimes kids make decisions before they think everything through… but underneath it all was simply a little girl who wanted to make her friend happy and help a cat have a home.

Let’s turn this unexpected situation into a happy ending. 🐾❤️

Please share! Someone out there may be the perfect forever family for this sweet girl. 🐱🏡❤️

There is nothing in this world quite like kissing a horse’s nose. 🐴❤️

That soft muzzle, that warm breath, and those sweet eyes looking back at you… it’s a kind of love you can’t put into words.

Sometimes the best therapy comes with four legs, a soft nose, and a heart big enough to heal your own. ❤️

Here at Rescue Riders, we know these beautiful souls are saving us just as much as we’re saving them. 🐴🤎

🐴❤️ FARRIER DAY THANK YOU! ❤️🐴

What a blessing today was! We want to send a HUGE heartfelt thank you to every single person who donated toward Farrier Day. Because of your kindness and generosity, our Rescue Riders boys and girls got the hoof care they needed! 🐴🧡

A very special THANK YOU to our farrier, Caesar Rodriguez, for taking such good care of our horses and helping keep their feet healthy and comfortable. We are so grateful for the time, patience, and care you give our Rescue Riders babies. ❤️🐴

And another big THANK YOU to our wonderful volunteers Vicky, Rhonda, and Hunter for coming out and helping us hold horses and get everyone taken care of. Some of these big ol’ babies aren’t always the easiest to handle, and having extra hands makes all the difference! 😂🐴

To every single person who donated, shared our posts, prayed for us, volunteered, or simply cheered us on — please know that you are part of this rescue too. Every hoof trimmed, every belly filled, and every animal given another chance happens because people like YOU care.

We truly couldn’t do what we do without our rescue family. ❤️

From our hearts to yours, THANK YOU for standing beside Rescue Riders and the animals who depend on us. Y’all are a blessing beyond words. 🙏🏻🐴❤️

❤️🐴 A WHOLE LOT OF LOVE AT RESCUE RIDERS TODAY 🐴❤️

There’s just something special about folks who don’t just say they care… they show up. They put on their work clothes, roll up their sleeves, and get right to it — because they know these animals are counting on us. ❤️

Today, we want to give a great big Southern THANK YOU to Mr. Robert, Miss Loretta, and Miss Cindy for coming out and loving on our rescue family the way y’all do. 🥹🙏🏻

Every water trough was scrubbed and cleaned, along with the bird waters, goose pools, turkey waters, and chicken waters. Fresh, clean water for everybody, snacks were passed around, and a whole lot of tails were wagging and heads were bobbing! 🐴🦆🪿🐓❤️

Miss Cindy, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the beautiful produce donation. Every bite helps, and around here, nothing goes unnoticed or unappreciated. 🥕🥬🍎

And Mr. Robert, thank you for fixing that pig pen door! Those piggies have somebody looking out for them, too. 🐷❤️

Sometimes the work at a rescue isn’t glamorous. It’s muddy boots, dirty hands, heavy lifting, scrubbing troughs, fixing fences and doors, and doing all the little things that most folks never see.

But those little things are EVERYTHING.

Because behind every clean water trough is an animal who gets to drink fresh water. Behind every repaired gate is an animal who stays safe. Behind every handful of produce is a belly that gets filled.

And behind all of it are people with big hearts who care enough to show up. ❤️

We are so incredibly blessed to have folks like y’all standing beside Rescue Riders. It truly takes a village, and we sure are grateful for ours. 🙏🏻

From all of us — two-legged and four-legged — thank y’all for loving our animals like they’re your own. ❤️🐴🐷🦆🐓🪿

🐴❤️ FARRIER DAY IS COMING — AND OUR HORSES NEED YOUR HELP! ❤️🐴

Mark your calendars! September 26th is Farrier Day here at Rescue Riders Horse Rescue, and we need to raise $550 to get all of our rescue horses’ feet taken care of. 👣🐴

Healthy feet are so important to a horse’s overall health and comfort. For our seniors, special-needs horses, and those who have already been through so much, regular farrier care isn’t a luxury — it’s essential. ❤️

We’re asking our Rescue Riders family, friends, supporters, and fellow animal lovers to help us reach our $550 goal. Every $5, $10, $20, or whatever you can spare gets us one step closer! 🙏

💰 FARRIER DAY GOAL: $550
📅 September 26th

If you can’t donate, please share this post. You never know whose heart might be touched by a share and decide to help these beautiful souls. 🥰

These horses have already lost so much. We want to make sure they never have to go without the care they deserve. ❤️

Thank you for standing in the mud with us, loving these animals, and helping us keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable. Y’all are truly part of the Rescue Riders family! 🐴❤️

🙏 Every hoof counts. Every dollar helps. Every share matters.
