What Does it cost?

Hay, everybody! I mean... Alfalfa
Hay, everybody! I mean... Alfalfa
About a third of our horses need shoes to address various medical issues. From barefoot trims to custom shoes, taking care of 80 feet is no joke!

Hay, everybody! I mean... Alfalfa
All our horses get alfalfa instead of hay. We go through 10 3-strand bales (120 lbs each) a week in the summer, when there's lots of grass. That's $220 a week.

With our focus on seniors, we feed Blue Bonnet Senior Intensify, and we go through a bag a day. That's $22 a bag, $154 a week.

Love goes a long way, but supplements make a huge difference in seniors. Our dogs eat Orijen, Omega3 oil, and Zuke's hip action every meal. That's $245 a month. (You don't want to know how much the horse supplements cost!)
Supporting our Vet

Supporting our Vet
Our horses love the vet (and he loves us). With older horses, most who have special needs, we joke that we keep the lights on at our vet. Think thousands...$$$

We wage war on flies. Fly predators, fly masks, fly spray, feed through Simplify, fly traps, plus we clean all the pastures every day. Fly spray alone is $70 a week.

SPONSORING THROUGH GENERAL DONATIONS
All donations go 100% to the care and feeding of the animals. Donations do not pay any salaries. No one on our Board receives any money from GRS; in fact, our board members donate. Anything you contribute helps our animals, and no amount is too small! You can view our shopping list here.
We also keep a wish list on Amazon. And you can support us further by choosing us as your Amazon Smile charity! You pay the same price but a portion of your purchase is donated back to GRS.
Tractor Supply, Horseman's Supply, and Teskey's gift cards are also helpful!
