Mission
At TMR Rescue we are deeply committed to the rescue, rehabilitation, and rehoming of equines, fostering a sanctuary where dignity and care are paramount for every donkey, horse, mule, and pony we shelter.
We offer these gracious animals a second chance at life, nurture their recovery, and ensure their safe transition to loving homes. Our expansive 200-acre sanctuary serves as a testament to our dedication, managed by a team whose passion for equine welfare knows no bounds.
Vision Statement
We strive to create a future where donkeys are cherished, protected, and given the opportunity to thrive. Through rescue efforts, compassionate care, and education, we work toward a world where every donkey finds a loving home.
Support
Our employees, volunteers, and donors play an important role working with and supporting our equine friends. Without all of you it would be impossible to continue providing the level of service they deserve. A special shout-out goes to Larry Little for his amazing level of financial contributions and invaluable expertise.
Our most important project to date is our goal for sustainable hay production. We cannot accomplish it without your help. We are seeking $150,000 in donations to help pay for the equipment and infrastructure needed. We spend over $300,000 annually on hay and have already invested in a bailer. Read the full story in our end of year newsletter by clicking the link below.
Volunteer
Volunteers are the cornerstone of our mission.
Without volunteers and their selfless commitment to help with all these animals we would not be able to continue our work to help so many animals.
We have volunteers of all ages and walks of life that come out every week to help with everything from mucking stalls to providing clean water to all the animals.
It is hard work that makes a difference. You see it every day when the animals come up to you and say hi! Now where are my carrots???
We know you would love to become a part of this volunteer family! Check out our volunteer page today and get signed up to help these wonderful animals and fill your soul with happiness

Winter Tidings
Make sure to check out our newsletter, which features a wonderful poem about our equine friends. All of us at TMR Rescue wish you a Happy New Year. We look forward to seeing you out here!
With cold conditions arriving soon, it is important that animals are prepared for the cold. While younger, healthy donkeys are able to adapt to the cooler climate, not all of them grow a thicker coat. In fact a lot of donkey breeds show little change in their coats between the summer and winter months. Older donkeys, and those with pre-existing heath conditions can be at high risk once the temperatures drop below20 degrees. CLICK HERE for more information on winter care.

Meet Phil
He's quite the character. The first thing everyone notices about him is his large size and sweet disposition. Phi is considered a mammoth donkey. This gentle giant comes with a story you wouldn't believe! Interested in learning more about Phil? Subscribe to our mailing list today!
