If You Love Animals, Celebrate World Animal Day at Save the Horses
Join us to honor a day that helps to ensure the humane treatment of animals.
CUMMING, Georgia (September 26, 2015) – Save the Horses Rescue observes World Animal Day on Saturday October 3rd with a fun-filled family day at the rescue farm.
Started in 1931, World Animal Day is a special day of celebration for anyone in the world who cares about animals. It’s a time to celebrate our relationship with the animals that share our planet and the ways in which they enrich our lives. It is also an important opportunity to speak out to support the humane treatment of farm animals and advocate for their protection.
