Horse Sanctuaries provide safe and caring homes for horses that have been abused, abandoned, about to be destroyed, or owners can no longer care for them. These organizations provide a natural and stimulating environment for Mustangs to relearn their freedom and independence, while others care for and prepare domestic horses and some Mustangs for adoption to a new loving and caring home.
Rather than allow horses to go to slaughter or be destroyed, these organizations provide rescue, rehabilitation, adoption and retirement for horses from many different situations of abuse and neglect. If a horse cannot be rehabilitated for adoption due to illness, old age, injury or social behavior, they are retired to live out the rest of their days in a happy and healthy environment.
Most sanctuaries are non-profit and are tax-exempt, and are solely supported by contributions from individuals.

Our name comes from the first rescue horse we cared for with the trust of Terolyn Horse Rescue, Inc.. Aria was only with us for a few days before she crossed the rainbow bridge, but we were all in love with her already. This sweet horse not only gave hugs, but she loved to be with people. Being in her presence helped us be present and we learned how to revel in every minute and appreciate how lucky we are to work with these amazing creatures.

What we do
Here at Hasty’s Haven, equine welfare is our primary concern. Our mission is to rescue orphan foals and other neglected, abused and abandoned horses as we can in order to find them a loving home and save them from a tragic end.
During their stay with us, we work hard to make sure each horse is given proper medical care, nourishment and loving attention. Coming to Hasty’s Haven provides them a safe environment and for the first time in their lives they are treated the way they deserve.
Who we are
Hasty’s Haven Inc. is an all volunteer 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to saving the lives of horses, yearlings and foals that were bound for slaughter, victims of starvation, neglect, abandonment and abuse. To date, Hasty’s Haven Inc. has helped many Nurse Mare Foals, adult horses, ponies, and donkeys using our own funds and small donations from friends.
We’ve dedicated the past several years to helping change the lives of horses who were bound for grave endings and with your help and support, we can do more.
Why we do it
Horses give us their heart and soul and to disregard or dispose of these beautiful creatures is a violation of that horse as a living being as well as a violation of our ethical and moral compass. Our mission is based on the realization that we have a moral obligation to help these amazing animals that have suffered at the hands of cruel and indifferent people. People who abuse and neglect them and even kill them in order to sell them for food.
