Sponsor a Horse

Would you like to be a special friend to one of our horses? A recurring monthly donation means security for an unwanted horse because we know that we will have a regular source of funding for that horse’s feed, medicine, and health care.

Our Permanent residents are all either living at AGES permanently or require extensive, long-term rehab to get them ready to be adopted. Scroll down for more information on each horse, or click on a name to get a detailed biography. After you’ve made your choice, please note the name of the horse you would like to sponsor in the donation form. If you want your recurring monthly donation to benefit all of our horses, you still will receive a model of a horse and the other benefits.

Join our list of valued sponsors. A recurring monthly donation means security for an unwanted horse because we know that we will have a regular source of funding for that horse’s feed, medicine, and health care. Or, you can make a monthly donation for the care of all the AGES horses.

MINX, AUTUMN, MIRACLE, and MAGGIE
are our most recent horses for sponsorship.

johnnie

Johnnie was purchased from a feedlot in Pennsylvania, saving him from his likely fate at a slaughterhouse. He is sweet and gentle and loves attention. Sadly, he was likely used as a roping dummy so he arrived at AGES with neck and throat problems, infested with lice, limited vision, and probably a rear hind stifle injury. But he’s sweet and patient and we want to give him the best life he can have as a permanent resident of AGES. We could really use help with his ongoing vet and medicine expenses. Please consider being a sponsor for Johnnie.Click for more information about Johnnie.

trigger

TRIGGER is a 32-year-old Shetland Pony. Surrendered to Amazing Grace Equine Sanctuary after his previous owners became unable, or unwilling, to care for him and the other two mini horses in their possession. Trigger, previously used for breeding, is now the “seeing” protector and guide for the blind and/or elderly horses at AGES.

As the patriarch of our herd and the guardian angel of our blind horses, Trigger is a permanent resident here at Amazing Grace Equine Sanctuary.

Your monthly gift as a sponsor to Trigger will not only help provide his regular needs including feed, supplements, hay, farrier, and veterinary care but also with any special care that he requires as the oldest member of the sanctuary!

gypsy

GYPSY is a 13-year-old, 15HH, Paint mare. For many years the family that owned Gypsy used her for trail riding. When she began to develop eye infections her owners, for whatever reason, chose not to have her properly treated by a veterinarian. An infection in one of her eyes, after going untreated for too long, spread to her other eye, and she became blind.

After Gypsy lost her sight, her owners no longer wanted her and an animal control officer was called in to take possession of her. The officer decided to keep her but Gypsy frequently ran into fences while in with another horse and a donkey, on several occasions acquiring wounds that caused her to need stitches. Unsure of what to do the animal control officer asked Amazing Grace Equine Sanctuary to take Gypsy in, she would otherwise be left with no choice other than to put her down.

AGES had previously never had a blind horse, but did not want Gypsy to lose her life, especially over something that was not even her fault! Today Gypsy shares her paddock with Maggie, another blind mare, Frosty, and Johnnie!

Gypsy will remain at AGES for the rest of her days and we love her dearly.

Your monthly gift as a sponsor to Gypsy will not only help provide her regular needs including feed, supplements, hay, farrier, and veterinary care but also with the eye ointments and pain medications, she requires when she has flare-ups.

We thank you so much for your help, and so does Gypsy!
