We are delighted to offer a home to these equines.
It costs us approximately $3000-3500 a year to provide basic care for a horse. This includes hay, veterinarian and farrier services, and necessary sand colic and deworming treatments. Some horses also need nutritional supplements because of health problems like arthritis, or special food because of teeth problems/inability to chew regular rations.
Since officially opening in March 2006, we have received calls from individuals who have inquired about placing hundreds of equines with us. The cost for feed and medical care for the horses is not fully covered by donations, thus we are limited in the number of equines we can currently accept.
We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization! Your contributions are fully tax deductible. 100% of donations go toward the feed and medical care for the sanctuary horses, burros, and goats. Many unwanted horses are in desperate need of homes. Please help by sponsoring a horse today!
The horses appreciate your kindness and generosity.

Voodoo spent much of his life working in
therapeutic programs for humans. After an injury
to his pastern, he was no longer rideable and was
retired. Voodoo waited 15 months to be able to
come and live at the Sanctuary. He is especially
sweet and gentle, and enjoys participating in our
Equine Assisted Psychotherapy program as he
has much wisdom to offer us humans.
Natchez was retired from the US Army 4th B
Troop Memorial Cavalry due to health issues. He
is quite a character and enjoys giving pony kisses!
Saber, another retired Cavalry horse from Ft.
Huachuca's B Troop, is enjoying his time at the
Sanctuary too!
Marta, Amore & Francisco are a family of burros
who came from a Sanctuary that closed. They are
super sweet and friendly burros and love
attention!
Chad came in with Marta, Amore & Francisco.
He is our clown. He loves opening gates and
sometimes locks the other horses in stalls!
