HORSE LOVERS UNITED, INC (HLU)NEWS AND VIEWS 2023Thanks to all the supporters, volunteers, people who have already donated money, time, and merchandise. We cannot thank you enough! We currently have 3 Standardbreds that depend on HLU for monthly care. It is our mission to help as many equines as possible to have a better life. If we cannot take a horse directly into our program, we will network to help find a home or rescue/sanctuary. If a horse owner is temporarily in a bind, we will buy feed to help that owner be able to keep their horses. If euthanasia is the only answer, we have accounts at several veterinarians in Maryland and Delaware. Please call us before the situation gets too bad or text me at 443-397-7276.Like us on facebook: Horse Lovers United, Inc./ Armbro Dunbar member of Horse Lovers United Inc/ Standardbred Makeover Delmarva/ Options For Equines/ US Against Horse Slaugter for Horse Lovers There are many needs in a rescue business.
