ANOTHER UPDATE – GREAT NEWS!! – We now only need $2480 for the 2nd part of this fundraiser to do the first repairs on the truck. Thanks to y’all coming up with enough funds for the initial $2500 match, the Donkeys are coming and our beautiful Angel is keeping her word and matching the next $2500 that is donated.
Our donor said if y’all can get the Mama’s home, she is willing to MATCH UP TO ANOTHER $2500 so I can get the initial truck repair done. We still need to fix the nursery barn roof and one of the hay barns from the storm damage. Our vet bill is most likely going to be about $2000. All 6 Colts are gelded!!! Woohoo!! Sadly, we incurred some unexpected costs with Grandma Gracie.
| As always, unexpected medical related expenses pop up when you least expect them. We had some excitement/drama as one of the colts, the beautiful Cochise, ended up with some complications from his gelding. He is expected to heal completely, although it was quite scary. |
Our beautiful Grandma Gracie is now running free in Heaven. Although this hit me even harder than I ever thought possible, I am so grateful to All of you, and to God for giving her the time she had with us.
She spent her last weeks wandering free in the front acres in the yard with the donkeys, Feather and the miniatures. They all were a big pain in the butt as they followed us everywhere and did their best to HELP with each and every project. She ACTUALLY TROTTED around with Feather 3 different times. She was so proud and oh so fast, (not really fast – but she certainly thought so), and definitely oh so proud. She was the happiest and most “at peace” animal I have ever had the privilege to care for. I still can’t stop crying.
So Gracie’s last weeks were the happiest she had been in I don’t know how long. Sadly there are always “end of life” costs, and laying her to rest was another unexpected cost, but again I am beyond grateful we had her.
Look at her “before” photo. She was so sad and in so much pain. You can clearly see how much better she was doing and feeling. She never really did “feel bad”, her organs simply started failing from her age and the horrors she had survived. When she left, her coat was soft and shiny and she had the most peaceful look in her eyes. Her body was just exhausted and Doc said she was like a thousand years old and it happens. She laid down and quietly left this earth to fly free in heaven. THANK YOU for giving her that love and joy in her last few months!!!

Millions of donkeys slaughtered for the trade in hides for China Thursday, 26 June 2025 By The Brussels Times with Belga Millions of donkeys slaughtered for the trade in hides for China © Wikimedia Commons.
| Almost 6 million donkeys are slaughtered each year for their hides, which are used in traditional Chinese medicine, and the figure could rise to 7 million by 2027, according to the NGO Donkey Sanctuary. The British NGO is calling for a ‘moratorium’ on this trade, which is decimating the species in Africa in particular. Donkey hides are exported to China to make a traditional remedy known as ejiao, used to improve blood circulation, slow down ageing, and stimulate libido and fertility. Once reserved for emperors, this product is now popular with the Chinese middle class and represents a market worth more than $5 billion (about €4.5 billion). To fuel this trade, some 5.9 million donkeys are slaughtered globally each year, and this figure could reach 6.8 million by 2027.
Angel Donor stated that if we can raise enough funds for the matching $2500 donation she is willing to do, once this is finished and the Pregnant Mamas and their babies are safe, SHE WILL DO ANOTHER MATCH so we can have enough funds to fix the truck and start the barn repairs.

Please help and share far and wide.

UPDATE – So Far we have raised $825 towards the matching $2500. We ONLY NEED another $1175 to procure the matching funds. I have until Sunday a.m. at 9 to commit to these precious lives. (Not the ones above – I still do not have any photos of the new Mamas whose lives are at risk.)

On a MUCH HAPPIER note, our Angel Donor said if we can get the 1st funds matched, she will do another $2500 matching funds to help get the truck and trailer repaired and possible the barns fixed as well. So once step at a time, and I am praying we get the 1st Match!
| Truck still needs 2 MAJOR repairs. So as of now it is sitting in the driveway. The parts for the first repair are ordered, and the estimate is $1940. This is absolutely critical as it is the Charge Air Cooler that needs replaced. Without this repair, the turbo will overheat and destroy the engine.
6. The 2nd Repair is the most expensive, but I have a bit of time to get that done. 7. The stock trailer decided to not raise or lower, and I need to take it in as soon as the 1st truck repair is finished. We will have to find a way to get it up on the truck, most likely with a tractor.
|
Due to a typo, we are short $1090 to finish matching funds and the new $500 matching funds for the extra $1000 needed to purchase these kids.
We are short $590 for the matching funds, which means we are basically short $1180 for the fund raiser. This means we can only get 1/2 a load of hay. We definitely need a whole load.
| THE BAD NEWS – When I was contacted about these 3 boys, there was a typo in the amount of the bail. The total was $2950, NOT the $1950 we fundraised for. |
| The $5000 was $2000 for the horses, $1000 for vetting and gelding these 3 and $2000 for a load of hay. |
So we still need the $590 for the 1st matching funds.
We have ANOTHER Angel who stepped up and is offering to match $500 to raise the additional $1000 I had to pay to save these kids. When you add up bail, paperwork and transporting with these hideous fuel prices, it is still not an unreasonable amount to spend to save 3 horses.
So the total needed altogether for 1 load of hay, bail and transport for these 3 studs, vetting and getting them gelded is $1090. Thank you to everyone who has stepped up to save these precious lives. This has been one for the books with the additional stress, and I am so grateful they will not face being butchered alive.
| For those of you are skeptical, like I am, I actually did see the invoice for these horses and the total was supposed to be $2950. |
Please help now and share far and wide!!’
THANK YOU from all the critters!!

ANOTHER 911 for 5 Mama Donkeys. I HAVE NOT SEEN THE NEW DONKEYS. These pictures ABOVE are ones you previously saved. We have until Sunday evening to make this happen!
We need to raise about $5000 to get these TEN lives saved. I have not seen the mamas, but were told they will most likely be foaling in the next month or two. This INCLUDES DELIVERY which is huge as fuel prices are insane right now and climbing higher almost every day. It is also wonderful as the truck is still not able to haul until repairs are done.
| We do have another Angel stepping up who says she will match up to $2500!!! Let’s save these Mama’s!! |
As far as the issues below, the one hay barn has been fixed, and we ended up with a much bigger load of hay than I was thinking. You are looking at about $4000 worth of hay, and I was budgeting for about half that. I am also thanking God that our hay guy is amazing!!!
Doc laid down 6 colts for gelding yesterday. Boy were they a rowdy bunch. Colts 2, Gate – 0, one panel – 0
However, minus the bent gate and panel, everything went great. The kids are doing well and no injuries. However, that will be another nice chunk of a vet bill, lol.
| So as usual, never a dull moment. For folks that don’t know, Google Donkeys killed for hides and you will see the horror in the numbers. |
Someone is trying to test my Faith. I know God has this, and I have faith in my Chilly Pepper Family to help us get this done. However, we have been slammed with emergencies all at once and I sincerely need your help!!
| 1. Honey Bandit was in a scuffle and injured during the storm and is most likely needing xrays on his shoulder. He seems to be feeling a bit better.
2. Grandma Gracie decided to split her head open above her eye. It was a decent gash and looked pretty dramatic. Had to call Doc on that one, but all is well and she is healing with zero damage to her eye. She is trotting around the yard like a little princess. Her eye is much better and she has been having a blast playing in the yard. 3. We had a serious wind storm which blew off most of the barn roof. Waiting for an estimate. It appears that alot of the metal roofing and possibly some plywood will have to be replaced. Right now it is kind of deadly if it comes off the rest of the way, so we cowboyed up and used the heavy duty tied down straps to hold it in place until it is safe to remove it. 4. Storm tore apart our small hay shelter. Estimate for that is $450 – YAYYYY REPAIRS COMPLETED. Also completed repairs on the other barn I didn’t know was damaged. 5. Truck needs 2 MAJOR repairs. So as of now it is sitting in the driveway. The parts for the first repair are ordered, and the estimate is $1940. This is absolutely critical as it is the Charge Air Cooler that needs replaced. Without this repair, the turbo will overheat and destroy the engine. 6. The 2nd Repair is the most expensive, but I have a bit of time to get that done. It is the Inner Timing Cover and the estimates are $5000 – $7000. This is the one I was trying to avoid and they did the outer seal but it did not work. It is estimated as 17 +/- hours of labor, which is why it is so expensive. Depending on where it is done, there is a 3 year warranty for parts AND LABOR, which is pretty rare to have the labor covered as well.
|
I simply HAVE to have a running truck and trailer to operate this rescue. All of our equipment is old, but we have cared for it diligently. Sometimes equipment just needs some love, and mine is screaming for help!!
| The good news is y’all covered the $2300 vet bill I just paid off, and the load of hay that is coming this week. THANK YOU!! |
Doc is scheduled to come out in May and we have 6 kids to geld.
I won’t lose my Faith, and even though there is alot going on right now, I know we can “git ‘er done”.

1st the Good News – I have committed to the 3 NV colts and they are not going to ship to slaughter.
Due to a typo, we are short $1090 to finish matching funds and the new $500 matching funds for the extra $1000 needed to purchase these kids.
| We are short $590 for the matching funds, which means we are basically short $1180 for the fund raiser. This means we can only get 1/2 a load of hay. We definitely need a whole load. |
THE BAD NEWS – When I was contacted about these 3 boys, there was a typo in the amount of the bail. The total was $2950, NOT the $1950 we fundraised for.Another Call, another deadline. Can we commit before Saturday morning? These beautiful boys are fresh off the NV range and need your help now!!
The $5000 was $2000 for the horses, $1000 for vetting and gelding these 3 and $2000 for a load of hay.
So we still need the $590 for the 1st matching funds.

89 minutes and counting and we ONLY NEED $655 to cover the balance of the hauling etc.
We are so very close. I only need to send the balance of $655 and these horses will be coming to Chilly Pepper.
| Thank you for your love and support and PLEASE let’s finish this so the horses can come home. Y’all Rock! |
| I am beginning to think if we cannot save 4 horses, that maybe the writing is on the wall and it is time to hang it up. It is beyond draining to always need to raise more funds, and if we cannot save these precious kids, I guess this might mean it’s coming to an end???? The economy is horrible, and fuel prices make these rescues even more costly. I guess it comes down to – WHAT ARE THEIR LIVES WORTH? I have been doing this for over 20 years and it literally sucks the life out of you. Maybe it is just time to say “I can’t”. You tell me. |
Just wanted to make sure y’all knew they were safe even though the fund raising wasn’t completed.

FIVE MORE KIDS NEED HELP ASAP!
| I literally just got another 911 call for ANOTHER 5 more lives. I was told these kids were in a group of 10. The other 5 were sold to a kill buyer and have already shipped. |
Today we were given the chance to help out the remaining 3 very wild stallions and the Pregnant Mama. So not only 5 on Saturday, but ANOTHER 5 lives need IMMEDIATE HELP!
| I need to say YES in less than 37 hours. I have to commit by 9 a.m. on Friday morning. With a total of 10 new horses in one week, I need to order another load of hay, and the vet bill is going to be very big with the special needs mare we just got and to geld all the stallions. |
Everyone is always angry about having to pull them from the slaughter pens, and we have the chance to keep them home in Nevada. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE do not let them down.
| I know I am wound right now. It is alot, but I need y’all to help me save them. |
I KNOW WE CAN DO THIS. The goal is $8000 so we can responsibly say YES, order another load of hay, feed all the new kids and get the needed medical done. This will also cover getting them delivered to Chilly Pepper, so that is also a big win.
These kids are young, so once they have some training we should be able to adopt them out. In the meantime, THEY NEED HELP NOW!!!
| Just wanted to make sure y’all knew they were safe even though the fund raising wasn’t completed. |

| Meet the FIVE new kids……. Thank you to everyone who has helped so far. |
All the kids made it here safe and sound.
As you can see, there is some serious work to be done on the “2”. Both need their feet done, and if I can raise enough funds I really want to get xrays of Chiquita’s feet. I have never ever seen a neck so large. With the condition of her feet, it would be wonderful to be able to get some xrays of her hooves to see where her coffin bones are.
| Grandma Gracie says “thank you”. She already went through the last $800 plus load of feed. She is basically living off grain. She still looks so sad but she has the brightest, calmest happiest eyes I have ever seen. Her light literally shines out of those beautiful eyes. Her coat is starting to get shiny and soft, instead of feeling like a brillo pad. |
| Please know how much your love and support matters. I imagine Chiquita’s care could be a bit spendy to start with. I know she needs farrier care immediately and I really want those xrays. |
Just wanted to make sure y’all knew they were safe even though the fund raising wasn’t completed.

Today turned into Frantic Friday. We need to get all 5 of these mustangs to Chilly Pepper by tomorrow.
Dakota’s surgery went very well. The good news is that we ONLY have about $1500 left on the vet bill. That is important as Doc has to come out on Monday for the new kids coming into NV. We need to get this bill wrapped up asap so we can get the vetting done on Monday.
There are Five Mustangs who need you now!! Amazing news – 3 of them have their Transport, Vetting and Paperwork sponsored. We just need to pay off the old vet bill, and cover the costs for the other special needs kids. We will need to get more hay ASAP, (different kinds for the special needs kids) We need funds for immediate farrier care for the new kids and Tuesday is Hoofer Day with the drafts also getting their much needed trims. It won’t be cheap, but is so necessary.
| I am not excited about adding 5 more mouths to feed, but these kids needed us asap due to some serious health issues with the amazing folks who had been caring for them. |
Thank you for all you do, and once again I am asking for serious help to make sure we can get these kids here now. This was a very last-minute rescue and they need help now!!!
THANK YOU from all the critters!! Please help and share far and wide.

When it rains it pours. We need around $4380? to pay the rest of the previous vet bill, the current vet bill, the wiring repairs not only for the trailer, but also the truck. The rodents here are heck on vehicle wiring. The truck repair for the oil leak has been moved to next week, as they need it overnight. The 3 big kids, Benny, Destiny, Mouse, and Grandma Gracie and Selena are going through bags of grain and groceries like crazy. On top of that, the good ole State of NV wants the property taxes for the rescue acres and all the barns. Just life in general, but a lot is hitting at once.
| Dakota had his surgery yesterday, and he needed it done asap. He is going blind at an alarming rate, and I need to get him healed and turned into “a gelding” and move him over where he will run and live his life as one of our “blinds”. It would be extremely beneficial for him to meet the band and learn the property before he is fully blind. I led him through the gate and reached out to scratch his neck, and he nearly sent me sideways because he didn’t see where I was. He had a horrible reaction to some of the meds during surgery, and thankfully it didn’t kill him. It was terrifying to watch. Doc Ross and Doc Bonnie did their usual amazing job, and so far he is doing very well. |
Your donation paid $1800 to the previous vet bill, and we had another person donate directly. We were short, but not by too much. However surgery isn’t cheap, so I need to focus on that bill again.
I cannot begin to express my thanks and appreciation for your love and support. The wonderful news is that today, all the kids are improving and gaining weight. Destiny’s eye is closing perfectly. Thank goodness Doc upped her meds when she had that infection.
| I want to make sure y’all know that I am very aware that YOU and GOD are the reason this rescue does such amazing things. I simply could not do any of it without all of you. Again, I ask for your help. The animals need it. I will keep doing the work as long as I can, but I am just a tiny grain of sand on this rescue beach. You are the power behind it. |

Quick Update.
We have had some wonderful donations, and were able to get both kinds of hay, and no I did not load the flatbed lol. I did make sure it had every tie down possible on it and tied the bales together as well. My arm is in a brace so I couldn’t load it. We were also able to purchase over $800 worth of grain. That is saving Grandma Gracie’s life right now.
Grandma Gracie needs her teeth done, but if we sedated her she would not survive at this time. So she needs the grain/mash. She is improving every day, thanks to your donations and love and support.
You can clearly see what your donations are accomplishing. Thank you!!! Yesterday we had a trailer emergency. The wheel locked up and would not turn. That is another unexpected $700+/- expense. Doc has still not been paid and we need to pay the $1500 (Gracie’s meds did come in), and get Dakota gelded asap.
The truck is heading to the shop Monday, and hopefully that won’t be more than the quoted $800, so we need to get that covered. I had to say yes to the bigger load of hay. They deliver for free and I needed to “fill the trailer” to make it worth their while. Having free delivery saves us a fortune, and I am so very grateful they will work with us.
Thank you so much for making this possible. I thought y’all would enjoy seeing how much Benny has improved because of your love, support and donations. You can literally see where your money is going. For a 25+ year old horse, he is doing amazing considering the shape he arrived in. Your donations make that happen. Please help us with the vet bill if you can. Thank you!!
Please help and share far and wide.
Thank you as always for being there for Chilly Pepper and all the critters you helped save!

Hi Y’all,
I am reaching out with an urgent plea for help. I need $800 for the truck repair, $1500 for hay this week, $1500 for the current vet bill and the incoming meds for Grandma Gracie. Funds are at a record low and I need to get Doc paid, purchase the new meds, get hay asap and buy more grain. I appreciate your help and know we can “git ‘er done’.
The GOOD news is that All of the new kids are doing a little bit better each day so far. None of them are “Out of the woods yet, but heading in the right direction.
We had to take Grandma Gracie in for bloodwork and an emergency checkup. She was crashing pretty badly.
| Destiny’s eye was coming apart and she was getting a bad infection in spite of her meds. She also needed an urgent appointment. At one point Doc thought we needed to put her down but thankfully came up with another chance for her. |
| Benny’s sheath was hugely swollen and ended up needing a little procedure to remove a huge “bean”. This was inside his private parts and preventing him from urinating. Normally they are pretty small, like maybe marble size?. His was the 2nd largest Doc had ever seen. Kind of similar size to a lime. It had to be so painful and was obviously in there for a very long time. |
So we had lots of emergency type visits in the last week or so. Thank you to everyone who donated so far for the vet bill. I believe it is now down around $1350 or so. This does not include the new meds that are coming for Grandma Gracie and those are another $200.

I need to get a load of hay in the next couple days. I am looking at about $1500 for a smaller load and that will get us by for a bit. We are down to a couple big bales and we are caring for about 20 kids right now. So I need to get the hay asap, as well as grain and the rest of the supplements these kids need.
Grain for all of them averages around $30 a bag, and we are going through a lot, lol.
The truck needs some repairs and general maintenance to the tune of around $800. That is the best case scenario.
Please help and share far and wide.
Thank you as always for being there for Chilly Pepper and all the critters you helped save!
