Remember 'Ruffian'

The greatest American Thoroughbred Filly who ever lived.  Her barn name was 'Sophie' and she proved that girls can be 'Ruffians' too.  2005 was the 30th anniversary of her death.

Born: April 17, 1972 at Claiborne Farm, Paris KY

Died: July 7, 1975 (age 3) at a veterinary hospital adjacent to Belmont Park, buried near the flagpole at Belmont

American Quarterhorse Champion 'Impressive'
~ Willie's sire.

Manes & Tails Organization rescues Quarterhorses, however, we will not pay one thin dime to the American Quarterhorse Association due to their pro-slaughter position.

American Quarterhorses are the most overly bred and commonly slaughtered breed of horse in the United States.

All of our American Quarterhorses have excellent bloodlines, but despite their breeding, they are lucky to be alive.

Welcome Pastel Light!

Manes and Tails Organization

Pastel is a 5 year old Thoroughbred mare who suffered an ankle injury at the age of 3. Her owner paid for her surgery, however, the party who was caring for her after her injury left her in her stall for two years! We were told that Pastel would only be 'pasture sound.' Not so. Ms. Pastel, who won 43K at the track, is now galloping around every day in the big field at Abbe's farm. Her time is regulated so she does not become sore. Clearly, she needs to gain some weight. This is her 'before' photo taken at the 'rehab' facility, and we will be sure get this mare back into good weight! 'Pastel' has been free leased to Abbe Auringer. When Abbe takes more photos, they will be posted!

Welcome 'Willow'!

Sponsored by some of the Fans of Barbaro,
Members of N.E.R.C., and friends.
We thank them all for their kindness and generosity.
Willow will be ready for free lease as a Dressage horse to Karen Alexander. This lovely Canadian bred Thoroughbred mare is a liver chestnut color, which is rare for Thoroughbreds. She is very sweet, but has some attitude!

Ferdinand & Exceller


The Manes & Tails Organization

The Manes & Tails Organization was incorporated in June of 2004. We rescue slaughter bound Thoroughbreds, Quarterhorses and Paints and free lease them. Among them are a son of 'Seattle Slew', a grandson of 'Secretariat', a great granddaughter of 'Secretariat', a son of Quarterhorse champion 'Impressive', a 'Dash for Cash' daughter and granddaughter, and a 'Sahlih' son. We never sell our horses; this enables us to guarantee them wonderful homes for the duration of their lives. Every horse we rescue from slaughter continues to contribute to the economy. We have horses ranging in age from 7 years old to 16 years old.

Our Board Member Dr. Lester Friedlander, DVM is a former USDA Chief Inspector. Dr. Friedlander is now a vegetarian. Listen to what he has to say here.

National Mounted Police Horse Appreciation Day

The NYPD is the oldest Mounted Police Unit in the United States and they currently have over 90 horses on their force. NYPD MPU has over 55 horses in retirement.  Manes and Tails Organization has committed to adopting a retired NYPD MPU horse!

Could Officer Reilly perform his job if he had to ride a bovine, bison, porcine or fowl? Clearly not. This is what distinguishes horses from so called 'food animals.'

Some brief notes of interest:  the Baltimore force uses only Draft horses rescued from the Amish, the Lexington, KY force has two Percheron Appendixes who  are brothers (in addition to eight other horses on their force), and the Hoboken, NJ force has Standardbreds and one Appendix.
