Horse Adoption & Rescue - Horse Directories

Welcome to FalconRidge, a non-profit, humane equine organization, sanctuary, rehabilitation and training center for the horse. Nestled in the rolling foothills of North Valley Center in San Diego County, FalconRidge Ranch was founded in 2002 in order to provide the care, rehabilitation, training and temporary or permanent home to unwanted, abused, neglected or slaughter bound horses. The average number of rescued horses at any time at FalconRidge is over 50. Hundreds of horses have been saved, trained, housed, or rehomed by the equine charity in the last five years.

The need to find homes for horses retiring off the race track is great. After The Homestretch-Arizona was formed to fill this niche. From the idea to the reality happened in a very short time span. Nine people expressed a desire to form a Board. We applied to the State of Arizona to become a non-profit corporation and received approval July 25, 2011. Our first Board meeting was held on August 25, 2011 and we immediately applied to the IRS for our 501(c)(3) status. Within three weeks we received our IRS Determination Letter (September 15, 2011). In October we began rescuing horses who had retired from the track.

Rancho St. Francis Horse Rescue and Equine programs are dedicated to the healing effects of compassion and love. When a horse enters our program, it is assessed for its individual needs. We honor its best interest by providing quality care. Our training program provides quality training experiences for the horses. Many of our horses help people in need through our equine therapy programs. We also have a rehabilitation program, which enables the horse to realize its full potential through care and nurturing. Our sanctuary program provides a beautiful, peaceful setting for horses to retire and enjoy their remaining years. Horses also available for adoption.

Dreamcatchers Equine Rescue (DCER) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, founded in 2007, made up of a group of dedicated individuals who have come together, in their love of horses, to do what we can to preserve the dignity of these magnificent creatures!

Tranquility Farm accepts the donation of Thoroughbred horses from the racetrack and breeding farm, and our goal is to give each horse their best opportunity to find an adoptive home. For those who are not readily adoptable we offer comfortable retirement whenever possible, prioritizing horses that have been significant competitors or producers. Tranquility Farm requests, but does not require, that owners contribute sponsorship to help defray the costs of rehabilitation and retraining. No horse is denied acceptance into Tranquility Farm based upon his owner?s financial contribution.

RCER provides safe and healthy foster homes for equines, whether they are an abuse/neglect impound or a voluntary owner release. RCER is dedicated to giving horses the life they deserve.
