Formed in October 1998, TEAR was formed after learning about the plight of the abused, unwanted, and unfortunate horses heading for New Holland auction every Monday. That October we ventured to New Holland auction and purchased four horses. So this journey began. Since that October in 1998, we have rescued and placed or provided sanctuary for over 100 horses. While perhaps not as large a number as some of the other rescues out there, but a number we are very proud of. We have purchased horses from auction, helped the local humane associations with cruelty cases, and provided horse owners with an alternative to the auction house. We have met some wonderful horses and people through these past years and made some lasting friendships with both.
