Each year tens of thousands of unwanted equines in Canada are slaughtered, here at Cheekye Ranch we believe in second chances.
Second Chance Cheekye Ranch (SCCR) was established in 2016 . With the help of a passionate group of animal loving volunteers, SCCR aims to rescue, rehabilitate, and re home Horses and Donkeys in need.
Since 2016 SCCR has saved over 264 horses, 13 donkeys and 2 mules and placed over 230 of them into amazing homes. These equines all came from various backgrounds and situations, over 95% of the equines we manage to bring in are destined to a Slaughter house, in Fort McLeod ,Alberta the meat is processed for Human consumption overseas. We are so happy to be able to give them a second chance at life.
Most of the horses and Donkeys that are rescued are untouched by humans and are scared, untrusting and often come to us with health issues related to lack of care. A great deal of our time is spent interacting, gaining the Equines trust and getting the horse or Donkey back on track health wise. Our initial goal for these often scared and neglected animals, is to make them feel comfortable enough with us so they can be cared for in a safe manner for our medical team, our Farrier and by our volunteers.
