I haven't been monitoring this web site in awhile, maybe you have been talking about this place.
Can anyone tell me about a rescue called, "Rebels Feedlot Equine Sales"?
Who are they, where are they out of, are they legit?
Thanks

Yes, they aren't actually a rescue. They are NOT non-profit, and don't have a 501c3. It is run by Sam Milbredt who used to run CBER before it was discredited and closed. As I understand it, this group sells horses from a feedlot and takes a cut on the horses that are sold. I can't really speak to whether or not they are 'legit' but they definitely aren't a true rescue. Nonetheless, they do apparently try to sell horses that are at risk for going to slaughter.

gratefulknits said it. I do applaud the fact there are still people working to help those horses and at least they aren't hiding behind the facade of being a non-profit.
