Old McDonald Barnyard Animal Rescue is operated by Nicole Bell and Doug Prato, in an effort to help neglected, abused, homeless, unwanted, and misunderstood barnyard animals. We also welcome animals who are very well cared for, but their families just can no longer keep them for a variety of different reasons. We can offer a safe home for horses, donkeys, pigs, goats, llamas, cows, chickens and ducks, and rabbits. We are a very small rescue, and do ask for a small tax deductable dontation when you surrender an animal to us.
We also encourage community participation and offer opportunities for education, volunteer days, special events, or the sponsorship of the animal of your choice. If you want to come visit, please do! Kids love the opportunity to come see all the animals.
Donations are always welcome and are tax deductible. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization

Iggy the Pigmy Goat
- On September 28th, 2006, Colorado Horse Rescue assisted the Boulder County Sheriff's department in the seizure of 13 animals from our neighbors. The animals included 11 horses, 1 miniature donkey, 1 pony, and 1 pygmy goat (Iggy) The seizure of these animals was a direct inspiration for us to become more involved with animals in need. |

Oreo - Female Lop Eared rabbit - Adopted!
Rascal - Male Lop Eared Rabbit - Adopted!
These lovely bunnies were abandoned in a garage with no food or water for days before they were discovered. Their family left them when they were evicted, and did not bother to let anyone know they were in the garage. They are all very sweet and gentle bunnies :-) They apparently were show rabbits before they were left to die.

Please Help us raise funds for Bucky Tha Goat to get his legs! Bucky was named by the Park County Animal Control officers who rescued him, and close to 20 others from certain death. They were without food, water, shelter. They were penned with goats who had died of starvation, or froze to death. Thier owner had just become to old/senile to care for them and left them to thier own devices. Bucky was likely 6-8 months old when he came, he is now 3. He lost his front feet sometime when he was very young, likely right after birth. The vet says they likely frostbit, then just eventually the necrotic tissue fell off and he is left with stumps. He was fitted by Dr. Richard Wheeler for the prosthetics, that will be made by Animal Ortho Care in Virginia. They agreed to build his braces for 1/2 price ($380 for each, total of $760). Richard was very exited to help Bucky and donated his time to make the molds. The molds are with animal ortho care now, and Derek (the owner) is just waiting for us to come up with the funds before he builds Bucky his legs.

Roxy - This pony has found her forever home, bless her heart! Her old owner took her to the Harley Troyer Sale and no one would even bid on her. He brought her to us, and when she came of the trailer my heart sank. She was all bones and hair, and looked as though she would not make it down the barn isle. But, with a good worming, a teeth float and lots of groceries, Roxy bounced back and showed us what a wonderful kids pony she is! |
