Easy Horse Care Rescue Centre

Our equines come to us starving, abused, scared and with broken spirits. We feel privileged to be able to give our rescued horses, ponies and donkeys a second chance at life with the dignity and respect they deserve.

[ENG] It was an incredible feat of teamwork that led to the rescue of this poor donkey, abandoned in Sax (Alicante) on a property that was in danger of collapsing, and littered with hazardous waste. Like so many of the equines we've rescued over the years, she doesn’t have a chip, leaving us with no clue as to who left her there to suffer.

Thanks to the kindness of the compassionate neighbours who provided her with food and water, and alerted the council and local police, the legal process to break down into the property and seize the animal was set in motion. The fact that a vet from Canisax, the local clinic, agreed to visit the property for a free check-up, and even provided a report on her condition, was nothing short of amazing.

Witnessing the results of good teamwork was truly heartwarming.

Although the donkey is over 20 years old and has some dental issues, she's in relatively good shape thanks to the caring neighbours. We don't know whether she's ever had the company of other donkeys, but we'll give her the time she needs to settle in at the rescue centre before introducing her to our herd of 31.

We're incredibly grateful to Carlos from the council for his tireless work in saving the donkey, as well as the neighbours who provided food to her, especially Karina, who gave her a name: Marley.

[ESP] Un fantástico trabajo en equipo llevó al rescate de esta pobre burra abandonada en Sax (Alicante) en una propiedad en peligro de colapso y llena de residuos peligrosos. Como tantos de los equinos que hemos rescatado a lo largo de los años, ella no tiene chip, lo que nos deja sin pistas sobre quién la dejó allí.

Gracias a unos vecinos compasivos que le proporcionaron comida y agua, y alertaron al ayuntamiento y la policía local, se puso en marcha el proceso legal para entrar a la propiedad y incautar el animal. El hecho de que un veterinario de Canisax, la clínica local, visitó a la burra de forma voluntaria para examinarla y proporcionar un informe sobre su estado, fue simplemente asombroso.

Presenciar los resultados de un buen trabajo en equipo fue realmente conmovedor.

Aunque la burra tiene más de 20 años y tiene algunos problemas dentales, está en relativamente buenas condiciones gracias a los atentos vecinos. No sabemos si alguna vez ha tenido la compañía de otros burros, pero le daremos el tiempo que necesite para adaptarse en el centro de rescate antes de presentarle a nuestros 31 burritos.

Estamos increíblemente agradecidos a Carlos del ayuntamiento por su determinación en salvar a la burra, así como a los vecinos que le proporcionaron comida, especialmente a Karina, que le dio un nombre: Marley.
