Our process of rehabilitation is focused on quality. All new intakes receive an initial evaluation from our veterinarian. Care process is identified and human social interaction begins. Throughout rehabilitation, evaluations are made to identify if regimented training is capable and needed to advance adopt-ability. Once medical, nutritional & social rehabilitation has met our required conditions an equine is considered “Available” for adoption. Otherwise an equine will be considered either “Pending” or “Rehabilitating”. Even if training habilitation or rehabilitation is pending we will consider adoption request. If any equine is commitment to training but not yet been, this will be completed first before any adoption process will be approved. All equines classified sanctuary are still available for adoption but understand the scrutiny during the adoption process will be very high as all sanctuary equines are to NEVER be ridden or worked on any level.
We have a range of equines and many different capacities. As our mission states… we aim to find forever homes for all rescued equines but do very much realize that most people are not looking for non-ridable or old aged equines. With this in mind, we also provide these souls the dignity to exist in an environment of the love and compassion deserved to them. Ultimately if the right individual comes along and convinces us of there undying love for one of our sanctuary class equines we would consider an adoption request.

Any riding or round pen/exercises may exacerbate their issues. Even though they may not be rideable they can make great pasture-mates/companions. Understand there will be heavy scrutany with these equines as we must ensure they are not riden at all.
Equines that are either not yet weaned from their mother. Or mothers that currently have a baby that is still nursing.
Equines that have a human in the last phases of the adoption process. Understand nothing is final until a potential adopter has completed the Adoption Agreement process. Sometimes adoptions never see completion.
