RESCUED ANIMAL RESIDENTS RANGE FROM EXOTIC TO DOMESTIC SPECIES, INCLUDING HORSES AND BURROS, CATTLE AND BISON, DEER, PIGS, TORTOISES, BIG CATS, BEARS, KANGAROOS AND SEVERAL PRIMATE SPECIES. ANIMALS RESCUED FROM CRUELTY CASES OR OTHER FORMS OF ABUSE RECEIVE VETERINARY CARE AND A PERMANENT SAFE HAVEN. IN 2022, CABBR WAS ABLE TO ACCEPT 20 NEW RESIDENTS INCLUDING TWO COATIMUNDI, TWO EMUS, A POTBELLY PIG AND TWO DUCKS, ALL VICTIMS OF A SHUTTERED ROADSIDE ZOO; ONE CHICKEN; FOUR ANGUS COWS SEIZED BY LAW ENFORCEMENT IN A NEGLECT CASE; AND EIGHT AT RISK HORSES, ONE OF WHICH IS A WILD ASSATEAGUE ISLAND PONY CABBR WAS ASKED TO TAKE BY THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE BECAUSE HE HAD BECOME INCREASINGLY AGGRESSIVE TO PARK VISITORS AFTER BEING HIGHLY HABITUATED TO HUMAN FOOD.

FOREVER FOUNDATION UTILIZES A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO TRAINING THROUGH TRUST, COMMUNICATION AND LEADERSHIP AND HAS BECOME A NATIONAL RESOURCE FOR ASSISTING EQUINE FACILITIES WITH DEVELOPMENT OF THEIR OWN TRAINING PROGRAMS. THE FOREVER FOUNDATION TRAINING ENHANCES THE SKILLS NEEDED TO REHABILITATE AND WORK WITH DIFFICULT HORSES, EXPANDING THE OVERALL CAPACITY OF GROUPS TO TAKE IN EQUINES WITH PAST TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCES. RESCUED HORSES WITH FOUNDATIONAL TRAINING ARE FAR MORE ADOPTABLE, AND THE LIKELIHOOD OF LONG-TERM ADOPTION SUCCESS IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER. IN 2022, THE PROGRAM HELPED MORE THAN 2,000 HORSES. DUCHESS SANCTUARY IN OAKLAND OR IS A 1,120-ACRE FACILITY ESTABLISHED IN 2008 TO CARE FOR FORMERLY ABUSED, EXPLOITED, AND NEGLECTED EQUINES.

BLM MUSTANGS AND OTHER HORSES AND DONKEYS RESCUED FROM POTENTIAL SLAUGHTER AND VARIOUS DIRE SITUATIONS MAKE UP THE BALANCE OF THE EQUINE POPULATION. DUCHESS ALSO SERVES AS A WILDLIFE HABITAT WHERE THE EQUINE SHARE ACREAGE WITH LARGE FREE ROAMING HERDS OF ELK, DEER AND OTHER NATIVE WILDLIFE. IN 2022, THE SANCTUARY COMPLETED PROJECTS TO IMPROVE FIRE SAFETY AND CONTINUED BUILDING ADDITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO EXPAND ITS EQUINE GRADUATED CARE PROGRAM TO CONSISTENTLY PROVIDE EXEMPLARY CARE OF ITS AGING POPULATION OF 165 EQUINES.
