Friendly Trails has rescued more than 30 horses over the past 25 years. Along with a staff of volunteers, Alane Freund has rehabilitated, retrained, and often rehomed many of the healed herd mates.
Most of these horses can’t be successful elsewhere because of their abuse and neglect histories. Friendly Trails originally operated parallel to Alane’s Youth Leadership Program which provided much of the volunteer labor and funding needed to support the rescue horses while supporting the youth on their path of healing and growth.
