Your Donation Makes a Difference

The Illinois Horse Rescue of Will County was founded in 2011, to provide shelter and care for mistreated or abandoned horses and other animals. We provide shelter, food, and veterinary services for these animals until a suitable home can be found. As secondary services, we provide educational and therapeutic programs to local schools and charities with and about these animals.

Hello Everyone! I’m Samson a 6-year-old miniature donkey. I first came to the rescue when I was only 2 years old, from a very loving home. My previous home gave me the name goat killing donkey. I might have had a problem with goats. They had lots of goats they expected me to protect from coyotes and instead I was more of a problem. In my defense I was just trying to play with the goats.

Anyways my home is Illinois Horse Rescue of Will County and I LOVE it here! I have decided to make a monthly news updates about the happenings here at Illinois Horse Rescue of Will County. I am very excited about this and have been talking with all my rescue pals about all the great names everyone came up with. It was a very hard choice because there was SO many great ideas but after a lot of thought I picked Straight from the Rescues’ Mouths. I picked this because I have so many rescue friends that want to help co-host with me.
Now to the fun News update for the week.
