A fund originally meant to support several abandoned horses has gone on to support far more. The Torrington Telegram reports the “Save the Goshen 14” GoFundMe campaign was meant to keep 14 abandoned Goshen County horses fed through the winter. Gary Hubert and Dave Cronk were reimbursed for months of hay and hauling. Dr. Donal O’Toole took the remaining over $2,000 and donated it to Home on the Range animal sanctuary in Laramie and Waggin’ Tails shelter in Torrington.
