Many horses are sent to auction unbroke and not papered and their value lies mostly in meat. Horse Protection Society is currently raising money to put towards professional training for Toonie, to help with training for Noel the Christmas Pony, and to start a fund for future rescues as well. If we can place them back in society in a useful role we can help assure their value for a long time to come. Donations will be gratefully accepted either by contacting us directly or by donating through CIBC and the 'Noel the Christmas Pony' account. </span><span style="COLOR: rgb(204,255,255);font-family:georgia;font-size:100%;" ></p></span><br /><br />**********************************************************************************<br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold;font-family:georgia;font-size:130%;" ><br />The Horse Protection Society of BC </span><span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:130%;">was founded in 1984 by Melva McLean.
