🐴🧢 Warning: Wearing this hat may result in unsolicited horse conversations, showing strangers photos of your mare, and explaining Thoroughbred bloodlines to people who definitely didn't ask.

Proceed accordingly.

Thank you everyone who donated and offered quarantine and homes! We still need a few more permanent homes, so please connect with Beyond The Roses Equine Rescue & Retirement if you're able to give a safe retirement after quarantine.

Texas Kill Pen Status Update

UPDATE June 3 - They are SAFE, but some still need permanent homes after quarantine. If you can provide a retirement home, please contact Beyond The Roses Equine Rescue & Retirement

************************************

In just the first 12 hours, the community has already helped secure solutions for three additional horses.

That means 17 of the 25 Thoroughbreds identified in this Texas feedlot situation are now considered out of immediate danger.

But we're not done yet.

Seven broodmares and one gelding still need funding, quarantine space, permanent homes, or a combination of all three before the June 5 deadline.

A tremendous amount of credit belongs to Beyond The Roses Equine Rescue & Retirement, which has been leading this effort from the beginning—coordinating placements, securing homes, matching horses with resources, and helping bring together the many moving pieces required to get horses safely out of the feedlot.

Mareworthy's role is different.

We are helping raise awareness, keep people informed, connect resources, and support Beyond the Roses however we can. While we do not currently have the capacity to take horses from this group, we can still help connect the people who do.

One of the biggest lessons from situations like this is that saving a horse isn't just about raising money.

Every successful outcome requires three pieces of the puzzle:

🏠 A permanent home
🩺 Quarantine space
💰 Funding

When those three pieces come together, a horse can move safely into its next chapter.

We've created a dedicated page where we'll continue posting updates, tracking progress, sharing horse information, and highlighting ways people can help.

Whether you can donate, offer space, share the story, or simply follow along, every contribution matters.

Together, we've already made meaningful progress.

Now let's help the remaining eight horses find the solutions they need.

How well do you know the Mareworthy herd?
Need a hint? 👇

05/31/2026

🚨 24 Thoroughbred broodmares were identified at a kill pen in the Texas Panhandle.

Updates and additional info available at https://www.mareworthy.com/news-and-resources/texas-thoroughbred-mares-rescue-effort

While 14 mares have now moved on to other situations, 10 mares still urgently need help before they are scheduled to ship to slaughter on June 5.

Right now, there are three ways you can help:

✅ Donate toward bail, transportation, quarantine, and care
✅ Help identify a quarantine facility in the Texas or Oklahoma Panhandle region
✅ Offer or help identify long-term adoptive homes

Beyond The Roses Equine Rescue & Retirement (also a Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance accredited organization) is leading the rescue effort and working directly with the parties involved.

Mareworthy is helping raise awareness, connect industry resources, and support efforts to secure safe outcomes for these mares.

The right person may know someone who can help.
