Horse Directories

We’re a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation located in Rancho Santa Fe, California and are dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and placing all breeds of sick abused, abandoned and slaughter-bound equine; including wild horses and mustangs, ponies and donkeys. All horses pictured on this website have been rescued or were born of a rescued horse. We want you to see these majestic animals and fall in love with them as we have.

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!

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.

Our mission: To make a difference in the lives of forgotten and at-risk equines through direct intervention, education, and community outreach; to stress the importance of owner responsibility; and to operate at the highest level of integrity, honesty, professionalism, and compassion.

Last Chance Ranch

Bethany’s Gait is a 501(c)3 non-profit ranch in Prescott, Arizona dedicated to “Rescuing Horses, Restoring Lives.”  Our programs were created specifically for active duty, reserve and veteran military personnel and their families. Our ranch is nestled in Williamson Valley with spectacular views of Granite Mountain and the surrounding area, providing for a peaceful, private environment.  One of the things that makes our program unique is that we are also a horse rescue.  We have found bringing the rescue horses together with the people offers a dynamic situation where horse and human heal through a bond that is developed based on unconditional love, unwavering trust and a keen understanding of what the other has been through.
