Our Story

‘‘A safe home forever” for ex- race, polo and sport horses’’

The Equine Sanctuary is a 501c3 non-profit organization that specializes in the care of the professional sport horse who once injured, find themselves in circumstances where there is no longer sufficient time or money for their continued care. Most of these horses are unsuitable for placement with non-professionals. They often require extensive veterinary care, a lengthy rehabilitation, and are at high risk of slaughter for human consumption.

With great love, kindness and training, we assist the healing of the mind, body and spirit of these beautiful animals.  Once physically rehabilitated, the horses are re-schooled in ground manners and are taught basic dressage.  Most of our rehabilitated horses are successfully placed in carefully approved homes.  Others stay with us as “Goodwill Ambassadors” for educational and therapeutic experiences with children, students, adults and US Veterans.

The Equine Sanctuary’s rehabilitation process for these horses includes full-spectrum, complementary and allopathic care.  We provide customized nutritional programs, homeopathy, endocrine-immune monitoring, acupuncture, chiropractic, PEMF and Laser sessions,  neural pathway reprogramming, bio-mechanical assessment, massage, corrective shoeing and when necessary, surgery.
