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.

Check our Adopt Tab for more information on adoptions. 

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 equine finds a loving home.

Happy News!

We are proud to share the wonderful news that Haggis Mack and Max, one of our most beloved bonded pairs, have been adopted into their forever home.

Mack has been part of our rescue family since birth. His mother arrived from a kill pen while pregnant, and Mack required early intervention and bottle-feeding when he struggled to nurse. With dedicated care, he grew into a confident, affectionate donkey who brought joy to everyone who met him.

Max joined us two years ago after being rescued with severe slipper feet. Through consistent veterinary and farrier care, he made a remarkable recovery. Once treated, Max was introduced to Mack, and the two formed an unbreakable bond that has remained ever since.

Together, they became two of our most requested donkeys for walks. Their gentle temperaments and trusting nature made them favorites among volunteers, guests, and supporters alike.

Stories like Mack and Max’s are only possible because of the generosity of our donors and volunteers. Your continued support makes rescue, rehabilitation, and adoptions possible for animals who just need a second chance.

We are deeply grateful for your role in helping Mack and Max find their happily ever after, and we know they will be treasured in their new home.

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
