The greatness of a nation and it's moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.

Mr. Ped was dumped on a property (tied to a tree) in 90 degree weather when the residents were on VACATION! He was in bad shape. The home owners found him upon returning and called OWC after another local Humane Society said that if THEY picked him up, they would simply take him to the sale barn- which means "take him to slaughter". That is NOT rescue! We built him a very nice area and 4 years later he is doing GREAT at 32 years old. He has been showered with love and attention ever since we received his loving soul.
We lost Mr. Ped to a heart attack on December 23rd 2016. We adored him and will always be thankful that we could give him peace and love in his final 4 years of life. God Bless him!
