About CVRS
- Cozee Valee Rescue
- Huntingdon, PA, United States
- We at Cozee Valee provide our animals with a safe haven away from the neglect, abuse, abandonment and the emotional torment they have been subject to. We also assist with rescuing and placing slaughter bound horses. We are a hands-on rescue that believes staying small is the key to our success. At our rescue it is all about the quality not the quantity. When it is time for our horses to find their forever home, we strive to find the most suitable home possible. Each animal that is placed in our care will receive our full efforts to ensure that they never experience an auction ring, slaughter facility or the cruel life they had before we acquired them.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!
Hello Everyone......Please visit our website CVRS
Spring is soon upon us, so CVRS is starting our poly post drive. We are trying to raise enough funds for roughly 250 white, 48" step in poly posts. We are trying to make our pasture safer and because it is donated pasture, it has to be temporary fencing. We are hoping to run this drive through April, if we raise the funds by then if not, we will keep it going until we do.
We understand that times are very tough and the economy is in a downward spin but please remember even $5.00 will help, that will buy 2 posts! We appreciate any and all donations and will be sure to post pictures when our project is finished ;)
Thank you in advance!

ASPCA Grants $1,000 to Cozee Valee Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc.
Huntingdon, PA. The ASPCA has granted Cozee Valee Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc. $1,000 from its Emergency Hay Support Fund. This funding could not have come at a better time for CVRS. The Economy is on unsteady ground, individuals are losing their homes, contributions continue to fall and hay is the last item that individuals or foundations normally help to fund.
CVRS is home to many deserving animals, all of which appreciate the chance to have a better life then they had in the past. All of these horses still carry the memories of the abuse and neglect that they have endured both emotionally and physically.
Hay is a key element for our rescued equines and the most used. Our rescue cares for up to 10 equines at any given time and utilizes roughly 100 bales of hay per month. Thanks to the ASPCA, many months of hay will be covered for all the well deserved horses at Cozee Valee Rescue & Sanctuary, Inc. CVRS is working hard to rehabilitate and work with our horses until they are ready to leave our facility to be placed in responsible, caring and loving homes.

Checking In :)
Hello!
I hope everyone is doing well. We are patiently waiting for spring to get here! Last night and all day today we had very high winds being clocked at up to 60 mph. Thank goodness the winds have died down this evening. All animals and humans are doing well.
There is not really much going on around CVRS, other than our regular routine. Our farrier will be here on the 18th for those that are due for trims. We look forward to Glace's visits, not for the bill at the end but it is always a learning process ;)
The horses all enjoyed the nice weather we were blessed to have for a few days. Of course the first thing they all did was wallow in the mud. Now the clean up will be the fun part - NOT!
Roger and I were walking around the other day making plans for all the projects we will have once the weather gets nicer. We will have to wait and get a better measurement to figure out if we can have 6 or 8 stalls in the new barn. I was thinking 6 larger and 2 smaller but we shall see. We are planning on contacting a friend of ours to see when we can get shale delivered as we are going to need many loads for all the projects we have planned. We will have a load of sand delivered once we get the area around the ring landscaped to help with the drainage.
We will try to have before and after pictures as the projects are completed.
I wanted to be sure to share this picture of the hay we were able to purchase thanks to our past hoagie fundraiser. Thank you to all of you who helped sell hoagies and those that bought them :).JPG)
Here is a picture of the hay that was donated by our neighbors, Heather and Dave W.

We are very appreciative of their generosity and the horses loved the hay!!
We know the economy is really putting a hurting on everyone but please know we appreciate each and every one of you that helps to support our rescue. The only way to run a good rescue is to have wonderful volunteers and dedicated donors/supporters. CVRS feels blessed to have so many wonderful people involved in our rescue efforts - THANK YOU!

Charlee - One year later!
Hello Everyone....
I wanted to share the one year anniversary of Charlee pony being here at CVRS! He was a give away on Craigslist. I will never forget one year ago today when Stephany (from Celtic Rein Rescue) and her family arrived with Charlee pony, after picking him up in MD and delivering him to us safely.
Above you see poor Charlee upon arrival. It was one of the most heartbreaking things I had seen in a long time. Charlee gave us a big scare as he went down in his stall, shortly after arrival and luckily he got back up and has thrived ever since.
Charlee was put back on his Pergolide as soon as possible and what a difference that has made for him. Unfortunately for Charlee the injuries he received in the past have taken a toll on him and he is now unsound due to his knee trouble.

Charlee is a happy pony that is now spoiled rotten and thinks he rules the roost! He has a new companion, Trinket that he is pastured with and they are starting to really like each other. As you can see from the picture above, Charlee is doing very well :)
We would like to thank each and every one of you that has helped with Charlee in the past and those that continue to love and support him, it is very greatly appreciated.

My apologies to everyone as I thought my latest update had been posted to our website but apparently when I hit save, it did not work!
The weather has been awful and we sure are ready for spring!! There have been a lot of things going on the past few months here at CVRS. With the economy taking it's toll on everyone, we too have been hit hard buy the inflated prices on everything like hay, feed, beet pulp, etc. We have been diligently working on fundraisers, so far have held 3 and we have another hoagie sale going on now. This time the hoagies are coming from Side Street Cafe. The orders, along with the money are due Feb 26th and hoagies will be delivered on march 5th. If anyone reading this would like to help us sell or you would like to buy hoagies, please contact us.
Our last hoagie sale was right before Christmas and we went through Brenneman's market. We had to make the hoagies ourselves and with the weather being nasty that day we did not have as many people as we would have liked. Since the weather has been such an issue, we decided to try Side Street's hoagies this time as they make them for us and we just pick up and deliver :)
CVRS has bills coming in every month just like any other non-profit so the funds that were made helped to fill our loft with over 200 yummy bales of hay for the horses. We also had feed, farrier and other bills to cover also.
We are hoping this hoagie sale will be another success as we will have the farrier here again on teh 18th and a rather large vet bill in a few months when we have spring vaccines and dentals done on all the horses. We had generous neighbors (thank you Heather and Dave W.) who donated 20 bales of hay today so with the other bales we already purchased we are hoping we have enough until the new hay is ready.
All of the horses are doing very well and I can tell they are also ready for spring......LOL! We are in the process of discussing the plans for the new barn we would like to build this summer. We also have to discuss run-ins as they are very much needed. The thoughts of having a community day open to the public was discussed. The plan would be to have some educational stations along with a fence painting project. Our goal here at CVRS is to involve the animal lovers of the community to join us not only to learn but also to realize we can have fun too!
Again as always, if anyone has any suggestions or you would like to visit us at CVRS, please contact us.
