Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and facilitate the adoption of neglected and abused horses in New Mexico and surrounding states. First and foremost, we are dedicated to providing a safe, healthy environment for rescued horses in the Roswell area and beyond. We follow the AAEP (American Association of Equine Practitioners) care guidelines for Equine Rescue and Retirement Facilities. Our goal is to rehabilitate horses to be adopted to well-screened homes, where they can, once again, serve a useful purpose. If you would like to donate to our nonprofit 501c3 organization to help our cause, please visit our donate page.
Crystel Denton has been a lover of horses for the whole of her life. When other children were playing with their toys, Crystel was running around on her hands and knees playing "Horse." As a young girl and teenager, while her friends were going to parties and school dances, she was cleaning stalls, grooming horses, and learning all she could about this magnificent animal. She has worked for veterinarians and show barns. She is an equine appraiser and an artist. After more than 51 years in the horse industry, her love and admiration for the horse has never faded.
Hannah came to the rescue as a volunteer when she was just 12 years old. Her love of horses has kept her here for the last 11 years. Hannah works hard and soaks in all the knowledge and information that she can get a hold of. Over the years, she has learned the basics in ground work on up to first saddling. She has learned to give shots, feed orphans, and feed nutritionally challenged horses. She has put her heart and soul into the horses who have come through this rescue and those that find sanctuary here.
