Castleton Ranch Horse Rescue

Provide rescue, rehabilitation, and lifetime sanctuary for approximately 120 horses as of December 31, 2022. The Helping Hooves Program was established in 2015 to try and reduce the number of horses that end up at an auction and most likely have a bad ending. We have educational programs to assist and educate first time horse owners about basic horse care and management. In addition to this we also have owner assistance programs with regard to financially supporting the castration of colt studs and breeding stallions and to assist financially with dignified euthanasia for those horses who were old and suffering from ill health. Many owners send these horses to auction but our program will hopefully give them an option to treat their horse humanely and with dignity. Sending an old and or injured horse to auction is not the answer.

During 2022,public awareness educational materials were published to create awareness of the plight of many horses and the need for the type of service which Castleton Ranch are proud to provide.
