Welcome to our page!

Our mission is to create a sanctuary for neglected and abused equines, giving them the care, compassion, and second chance they deserve to live happy, healthy lives.

 

 

 

What We Do

We rescue horses from compromising situations, including auction horses and surrendered horses. 

 

A "bad situation" refers to circumstances where horses are at risk of slaughter, a fate we actively prevent. 

 

We rescue a wide range of horses, such as former work horses, Standardbreds, Thoroughbreds (including ex-racehorses), older lesson horses, and those with medical needs.  

We are dedicated to saving them all.

Equine Rescue

Our Equine Rescue provides a safe haven for neglected and abused horses.  

 

We offer comprehensive care, including veterinary attention, nutritious feed, and farrier services. 

 

 Through rehabilitation and training, we strive to prepare these horses for new, loving homes.

 

  We are committed to giving these horses a second chance at a happy and fulfilling life. 

Rehabilitation Programs

Equine rehabilitation programs offer a vital lifeline for rescued horses, addressing a range of physical and emotional needs. 

 

 These programs often involve specialized veterinary care, including therapies like acupuncture and hydrotherapy. 

 

 Nutritional support and carefully managed exercise routines play a crucial role in restoring the horses' health. 

 

 Creating a safe and nurturing environment is paramount for these animals to regain trust and confidence.  

 

The ultimate goal is to prepare these horses for adoption into loving homes, giving them a second chance at a fulfilling life.

Community Outreach

Community outreach is crucial for building strong relationships with local residents.

 

  It provides opportunities to educate the public about responsible pet ownership and the importance of adoption. 

 

 Engaging with the community helps raise awareness of the rescue's mission and the animals in its care.

 

  This involvement can lead to increased adoptions, volunteers, and donations. 

 

Ultimately, strong community connections are essential for a rescue's long-term success.
