operative community ser-
vice effort between Sunrise
Equine, Center Valley and
Horse Harbor, which often
work together on individual
rescue cases in their three-
county area. Two years ago
they teamed up to provide
the Project Safety Net for
Horses. an owner assistance
program designed to keep
horses in safe homes with fi-
nancially struggling owners
during the height of the re-
cession. More than 60 hors-
es were kept in safe homes
in that effort, essentially
doubling the combined sanc-
tuary capacity of the three
rescues.
To participate in either
of the clinics, horse own-
ers can contact NERN at

or 760-419-2462. For more
