Adopt a Horse Here!

​Of our 11 horses, all but 2 horses were rescued from slaughter or backgrounds of abuse and neglect, are part of what we do here at Hearts Landing. These equine, once broken, lost and hurting, are now doted on by children who have been through many similar circumstances. The experiences of the horses give them the ability to reach out to kids in a unique way, making them what we call "equine counselors."

For the many equines who call this place home, Hearts Landing offers a safe haven, a gentle hand and a life purpose. Our training methods are based on the theories of natural horsemanship, which utilize quietness and patience to communicate with horses in their own language. It is our aim to develop trusting relationships with these magnificent creatures in order to build a bridge into the root of hurt in the human life .  Horses don't judge. They have a quiet way of allowing a hurting individual the space and time to process hurt, shame, boundaries, communication and forgiveness.

Please consider sponsoring one of our "equine counselors." By simply choosing a sponsorship level, you can further ensure quality care to our horses and make it possible to scholarships to hurting children who call this their special place. Your sponsorship will provide aid for the following:
  • Countless hours one-on-one with a child and leader
  • Daily engagement/training both physically and mentally
  • Daily hay and grain as needed
  • Vitamins and supplements as needed
  • Regular preventative vaccinations
  • Professional farrier trimming and shoeing as needed
  • Tack and equipment replacement and repair
  • Grooming supplies, horse paints & supplies 
  • Contributions to the Equine Rehabilitation and Rescue Fund*

*The Equine Rehabilitation and Rescue Fund is an account that has been established to act as a medical "insurance fund" for the ranch horses. Its secondary purpose is to assist in the funding of horse rescues.

This agreement in no way entitles sponsor to ownership and/or exclusive privileges in any way to sponsored animal or ranch property. HLR accepts all liability, expressed and/or implied, for sponsored equine. Sponsor has the right to cancel this agreement with a 30 day notice to HLR administration. All monies received from sponsor to date of cancellation remain the property of HLR. Please note that there may be more than one sponsor per equine. This is to ensure that all of our horses are cared for equally, as the funds go into an account to support our whole herd.
