Thank you for all you do!

It's great to think that finally animals are give some extra consideration, human life isn't the only life worth saving...

You made my day!

I would just like to give a big Thank you to the Felton Fire, my parents board their horses at the stable that Traveler is at and my lil 8 year old sister is very found of him and would be very sad if they weren't able to help him. I'm glad Traveler is ok,he is a wonderful, sweet horse.

Thanks again

I'm pleased that the horse was saved, but I hope that the owner is paying the bill for the firefighters' time.

The best part is that they're actively training others to do this type of rescue work.

Sorry about being grumpy. I was not aware that Felton was an all volunteer fire department. I grew up in an area with a volunteer fire department, and still remember the pancake breakfasts every year as fundraisers. Extra kudos to the Felton firefighters for amazing volunteer efforts.
