The concept of Curly Horse Rescue was born after a single individual privately rescued a herd of 21 starved and neglected Curly horses from Canada. She arranged transportation, rescued and rehabilitated them, with the help of a handful of volunteers who raised funds to help her pay for their rescue.
These volunteers realized that there was a need for Curly Horse Rescue, as Curly horses have been rescued by private individuals from those misinformed individuals who believed that Curlies did not require basic necessities like hoofcare and proper healthy feed, or those that thought the Curly coat was a defect or abomination and relegated them to the back lot. We also educate the public about proper horsekeeping, and the difference between a Curly horse and a horse with Cushings syndrome.
