CWSTAG, Central Wisconsin Save the Animal Group

Animal rescue in Portage, WI

We are a small grass root organization in rural Wisconsin, located in Portage. We believe in "NO HORSE SHOULD BE LEFT BEHIND" due to neglect or abuse issues. We believe that every horse has a special gift to share with the person who adopts our equines. We believe every equine desires and deserves the right to be loved, cared for, and treated with dignity and respect.
