Description of Rescue
SCTR is a new California Nonprofit Public Benefit Corporation, certification number, C3151037. Our application for state and federal tax exempt status is in progress. The specific purpose of SCTR is to acquire thoroughbred ex-racehorses in Southern California that are at risk of slaughter, abuse, and neglect, and to rehabilitate, transition, and rehome them. SCTR typically purchases at livestock auctions ex racehorses arriving from racetracks and breeding farms, and cares for them until a permanent custodial or retirement home is found. SCTR also works to educate the public on responsible horse ownership and breeding practices.
We utilize foster homes, which are effectively able to quarantine our rescued thoroughbreds, in the high desert and inland empire regions of Southern California. Currently, we have four rescued thoroughbreds available for permanent rehoming, and two that are in earlier stages of rehabilitation. We offer temporary rehabilitation and retraining only, and are not currently in a position to permanently retire ex-racehorses.
Prospective foster and permanent homes must complete an application form, which will be sent to you by email upon request at sctbrescue@live.com. We "adopt" out most of our horses with a "Care, Custody and Control" agreement, which does not transfer ownership, a sample of which can be seen on our website.
