The rescue of large animals such as horses and cows requires special equipment and huge effort: Beside the professional and often expensive equipment it needs dedicated and long term skilled experts to free large animals from life-threatening situations with instinctive feeling and huge experience. Quite often these voluntary specialists of the GTRD accept long drives and do not spare costs nor dirt to gentle recover the scared animals. Rescue missions of the GTRD are often complex and cost intensive. While most of the horse emergency cases are covered from insurances, the rescue of a farm animal often raises financial problems for the owners - in many cases the GTRD gets not even paid. However, this does not keep it from continuing saving lifes of farm animals on a daily basis and making every endeavour.

In our opinion such a committment deserves support. Therefore the Susy Utzinger Animal Protection Trust agreed to come up for the rescuing costs of farm animals. Because we think: Farm animals as well deserve professional help!
