Maisy's Story


As you may know, Maisy the horse was rescued by Spring Hill Horse Rescue in N. Clarendon, VT as the result of a cruelty/neglect case on November 14th. Green Mountain Animal Defenders is sponsoring Maisy's recovery by paying her veterinary expenses and collecting donations for her food.

We are very pleased to report that Maisy is doing much better and is recuperating at Spring Hill.

Now Maisy's "friends" have also been rescued! With the guidance of Rutland County Sheriffs Department, The VT Agency of Agriculture and a compassionate and helpful State's Attorney, Spring Hill Horse Rescue was also able to assist in the rescue of over 110 neglected animals from another property owned by the same couple who had Maisy.

The Rutland County Humane Society took in the small animals, and Spring Hill has the larger animals in their care.
