Episode 111
In August of 2022, we rescued Anna, a starved, neglected Belgian Draft horse who was dumped at a kill pen in Kemp, Texas and was scheduled to ship to slaughter. Anna was skin and bones when we saw her livestock yard video. We saved her life and brought her home to our farm for retirement. After a check up by the vet, we got her on the road to recovery and all of you were apart of her life from the first day she arrived at our farm. She touched all our hearts as she regained strength and was able to live the life of retirement she deserved. Free to roam the pasture grazing with a herd.
On December 12, 2024, we went out to the pasture to feed everyone that morning and Anna passed away from natural causes sometime in the middle of the night. She was surrounded by the herd and passed peacefully from what we could see that morning. This video is a rememberance of her time here on the farm and the kindness she received in her senior years.
Run free sweet girl, you will be missed by all!
As a growing horse rescue group, we rely on monetary donations to keep the organization moving forward. The Big Hoof Foundation will always be transparent with how your donations are used. 100% of the money we raise goes directly to the rescued horses' bail fees, transport, feed, hay, medical bills, medications, alternative medical treatments, supplements, surgeries, etc. Every dollar raised is for the horses!
We have a fundraiser going for all the medical bills for the 48 equines we have rescued since the beginning of September. We could definitely use your support with this fundraiser. All the details of the fundraiser along with copies of the medical bills are at www.bighooffoundation.org

Another way to support us is with feed...the one item WE always need is FEED! If you would like to send a gift/donation of feed (Alfa Pro or beardless wheat) you can send that through our local feed store, HF & C Amarillo. When you call, tell them you are sending a gift to Fletcher Farms Amarillo/Big Hoof Foundation and they will add the gifts to our account.
We are feeding the herd round bales of beardless wheat and the horses go through about 6 bales every few days. A round bale of beardless wheat is $140. We also use small square bales of beardless wheat and can be purchased through HF&C Amarillo for $14.95 each. Our special needs horses also eat Alfa-Pro which is a complete pelleted alfalfa mixed with vitamins and minerals. Alfa-Pro is $17.45 per bag. They do offer a discount if you purchase by the pallet (40 - 50 pound bags) $16.95 per bag if purchased by the pallet.
