Horse Harbor Foundation

A lifelong sanctuary for at-risk horses

It’s that time of year. Any donations you make to the Horse Harbor Foundation will go directly to our veterinary fund as we strive to take the best possible care of our elderly horses living out their lives on the sanctuary. Thank you!

April is the 30-year anniversary of our rescuing at-risk horses. The first was Misty in 1994, a half blind old Appy mare whose disabled owner could no longer take care of. A boarder at the stable Allen was teaching riding with his own three horses at the time, she became his first rescued horse. Misty was followed by Hud and Babe, two elderly horses that had been abandoned in a pasture, then shortly after by Renegade who had terminal cancer and the Horse Harbor Foundation nonprofit lifelong sanctuary for horses with no other chance for rehoming was born.
