Horse Protection - Horse Directories

The non- profit Cloud Foundation is dedicated to preventing the extinction of Cloud’s herd through education, media events and programming, and public involvement.

Wild Horse Observers Association (WHOA) was formed by Placitas, New Mexico community members to protect and preserve the remaining wild horses and their habitats in the areas of Placitas, New Mexico, the state of New Mexico, and all the United States. WHOA supports the preservation of wild horse family units (bands) and herds where they naturally roam.

Lifesavers mission is to prevent American mustangs and domestic horses from being abused, abandoned, neglected and ultimately sent to slaughter through rescue, adoption, sanctuary, education and horse inspired growth and healing programs.

Wild horses are a living symbol of our American heritage and freedom. These Mustangs must be protected. Businesswoman and philanthropist Madeleine Pickens is committed to this promise. Through her Foundation, citizens from all walks of life are uniting to create a permanent home, a Sanctuary, to save these magnificent national treasures.

What started out as a helping hand to just a few horses in need grew to a Way Station for PMU horses coming from Canada through United Pegasus Foundation.  From there we began taking on rescues one at a time, and developing them to get them into new homes..  With  more horses in need coming in , helping out other rescues by taking on and homing horses from feedlot sale yards and auction yards, we were busy. We also started getting calls from racetrack trainers looking to find good homes for their retiring racehorses.  As we started taking those horses on, things started to develop and we became an IRS determined 501(c)3 non-profit animal welfare charity.
