Who is Becky?
We saw Becky for the first time on a hot summer day in 1997. She did not look like a horse, but a walking skeleton with weeping wounds and severe hair loss. The enclosure she was trapped in was full of junk and weeds, not at all suited for the needs of a horse. She had no water or shelter to help her cope with the blistering summer sun. A
We saw Becky for the first time on a hot summer day in 1997. She did not look like a horse, but a walking skeleton with weeping wounds and severe hair loss. The enclosure she was trapped in was full of junk and weeds, not at all suited for the needs of a horse. She had no water or shelter to help her cope with the blistering summer sun. Authorities were immediately contacted and her owner was ordered to provide adequate care for her. Just one day later, she was spotted again, conditions unchanged. We took legal action and won custody of her in just a couple of days.
As soon as we could, we removed her from that desperate situation. Then, the real work began. We promptly transported her to Texas A&M University where she underwent several surgeries to mend her many wounds. Becky was put on a rigorous program for rehabilitation by the veterinarians that she was being treated by. Her recovery was long and arduous. Considerations had to be made for everything from long term wound care to specialized feeding programs to help boost her immune system and speed recovery.
After several months of constant care, Becky made a full recovery. Her name, Becky, is a tribute to the grandmother of one of our co-founders; Hope comes from our belief that we can provide hope for all of the abused and neglected horses that are found globally. Becky passed in July of 2016. She is remembered as the beloved matriarch of the rescue that bears her name and was founded to save her and the as many animals, like her, as possible.
REST IN PEACE SWEET BECKY... In July of 2016 we lost the horse that changed our world. Becky passed, surrounded by people that love her. Her legacy is one few creatures have achieved. She is responsible for saving hundreds of horses. For almost 20 years, Becky's hope was that all horses find safe, loving homes. We will continue to fight in her name.

Subject: Changes, Challenges, Renewed Commitment and Thank YOU!
Dear Valued Supporters of Becky’s Hope:
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. Today the board of directors of Becky’s Hope is reaching out not only to express our deepest gratitude, but also to share a glimpse of our revitalized journey.
For years, you have stood by Becky’s Hope, with your generosity and support intertwining the very essence of our mission. Your contributions have provided a sanctuary for souls who had nowhere else to turn, and because of you, countless horses, donkeys, etc. have found solace and a second chance at life.
As many of you know, December of 2023 marked a new chapter for Becky’s Hope. Upon assessment of where we were as a rescue, the board of directors determined an immediate change in leadership was necessary to further benefit the animals. It has been a time of both reflection and action--where we have taken a hard look at where the rescue currently stands and where we aim to go with it. We have rolled up our sleeves, addressing the areas that need attention, and are striving to ensure that no aspect of our noble cause is left by the wayside.
Change, although challenging at times, brings with it a promise of progress! We are dedicated to fighting harder than ever to uphold the standards of care that our animals deserve. It is a promise not only to them, but to you, our dedicated supporters, who have entrusted us with the means to make a difference.
As we move forward, we invite you to continue this journey with us. The road ahead is one we wish to travel with you--for your faith in our mission fuels our daily efforts. With the changes in leadership, we are embracing a reinvigorated commitment to our cause.
Please consider this letter as both a token of our gratitude and an invitation to witness the positive changes your support is enabling. We hope that you will continue to be a part of the Becky’s Hope Horse Rescue family, as we hold fast to our shared vision of rescue, rehabilitation, and love for these magnificent creatures.
Adopting from Becky's Hope
How do I adopt a horse/donkey?
Adopters must complete an adoption application. Once BHHR receives a complete adoption application, a board member will contact the potential adopter to discuss any issues or to arrange for a meeting between the adopter and the horse(s) he/she is interested in. When the adopter meets a horse he/she wishes to adopt, he/she will sign an adoption contract, pay an adoption fee and transport the horse home.
