Welcome AJ Irish ☘️. This quiet boy was a stunner in the show ring for many years, and a gentle teacher for dozens learning to ride. His last year has been rough, and we are grateful to have the opportunity to bring him Into Healing Hearts and get him the medical care he so needs. Dr. Aguel and staff immediately met us at the rescue for bloodwork, radiographs and consultation with a farrier for special shoes. We are so grateful for their willingness to assist in this care on such short notice. Their diligence has made an immediate difference in Irish’s quality of life. What a miracle to see!! To help support Irish’s first week of care, please follow a link below. Together: WE are Healing Hearts. Venmo: Healing-Hearts-2 Zelle: 602-714-0241 Website: www.healingheartsaz.org.

💔This week we lost our sweet Gideon. At 32 years old, he had seen much of Arizona trail riding through the desert and being a gentle boy for his longtime owner. As his owner aged himself, he knew he was not able to care for Gideon the way life intends us to. He made the difficult decision to bring Gideon to Healing Hearts, but knew he would be loved beyond compare and continue to receive all the medical attention and love he so deserved. While his hooves were failing him in his final few months, we made sure to medically monitor his condition, and respected when he told us it was time to say goodbye. These are the hard days in rescue. We will miss you sweetest boy! You are with so many special Healing Hearts angels. 🤍——-#love #rescue #animals #animalrescue #animalshelter #horses #horserescue #aqha #appendix #quarterhorse #quarterhorses #az #arizona #scottsdale #rioverde #animals #animal #horse #adoption #adoption #adopt #cavecreek #arabian #arabianhorse #wearehealinghearts #equine #reels #equineofinstafram #august #school #backtoschool
This is what a horse should never look like. Emaciated, protruding bones and sores on skin. This dear boy, Dexter deserved better- and thanks to your support, he is on a rehab journey.

You’re a long way from the killpen, Larry. 💙 What a journey this has been. Dumped at the killpen without much hope in sight, Larry had hundreds of thousands of views, yet had not been bailed after weeks and weeks of being posted. Thank goodness an angel donor contacted us to ask if we could offer Larry a safe landing…of course we said yes-but we were thousands of miles away. This is where our incredible (and amazing, kindhearted, fabulous….there aren’t enough adjectives) friends at FarmHouse Fresh Animal Sanctuary stepped in! They raced to pick Larry up at the lot, and gave him a beautiful foster sanctuary to restore his strength and medically prepared him for transport to Healing Hearts. Thanks to another fantastic group, Hearts For Hope Horse Haven, Larry safely arrived at Healing Hearts a few months ago. When good hearted people work together, miracles can happen, and LIVES ARE CHANGED. And today, Larry is living proof of that. Together, WE are Healing Hearts. ♥️————#larry #rescue #killpen #adopt #adoptdontshop #adoption #aqha #arabian #quarterhorse #equine #arabianhorse #texas #arizona #march #az #marchmadness #love #live #animals #animalofinstagram #animalrescue #animalshelter #horses #horse #horsesofinstagram
Would you believe an emaciated, lame pony who was dumped at the kill pen last year is now sharing watermelon 🍉 with someone who loves him so dearly? Ghost makes our days a little brighter, our laughs a little louder, and our joy MUCH bigger here at Healing Hearts. Our rescue horses matter. And now they know it.

Saturday Snacks 🍉 Enjoying a watermelon snack may be simple, but Lucky didn’t always feel comfortable with people interacting with him. Lucky is a 24 year old BLM Mustang who was captured in 2000 at Nellie AFB in Nevada. He was adopted out from their program in 2001, and was sadly found abandoned on the side of a highway in 2013. Thanks to Journey’s End Rescue, Lucky was taken into their Sanctuary before arriving at Healing Hearts in 2020. He arrived very frightened of touch, but has come to know and love our volunteers & staff who dote on him daily. Thank you Lucky for trusting us with your care and teaching us all some incredibly valuable lessons of patience ❤️🍀 Together, WE are Healing Hearts. #blm #blmmustang #wildmustang #mustangs #adopt #adoption #adoptdontshop #wildhorses #horses #horse #arizona #az #cavecreek #scottsdale #phoenix #animals #animalshelter #animalshelters #animalrescue #summer #july #usa
Look who’s feeling so much better!! Poseidon! This sweet Belgian draft youngster was rescued from an Oklahoma kill pen just a few months ago. Last month, Poseidon had a lengthy recovery after an extremely complicated gelding. Although rare, gelding complications can happen and we are so grateful he is on the other side of this scary ordeal. He is still being treated for EMP, but boy oh boy, he is looking good! ❤️ Thank you to our wonderful community who has supported Poseidon on his rescue & medical journey.

How do we help keep our medically fragile equines cool in the hot summer months? Shade, fans, lots of cooling baths, fresh water & a misting system! It’s hard to believe or grasp that Arizona does NOT require a shade structure for equines, especially in this desert climate. Last year the Phoenix area nearly hit 120°! We are preparing for another hot one! ☀️ #arizona #az #scottsdale #phoenix #thevalley #valleyofthesun #arizona #suns #equine #equinerescue #horses #horserescue #rescuehorse #adopt #adoption #adoptdontshop #cavecreek #tucson #horses #horse #pony #aqha #apha #arabianhorse #arabianhorses #quarterhorse #wildmustang #wildhorses #reels #viral
Noah let us know he is quite ready to impress his future family with his gorgeous ears, slick donkey walk, and charming brays! Meet Noah! Last month we welcomed this darling, easy-going Donkey to our herd. Noah is a 19 years old gelded boy who is up to date on teeth, feet and vaccinations. He is very gentle, loves to be hand walked and visit with the herd down the way. Noah’s easy going personality would be a joy to anyone hoping to add a kind & curious donkey to their family. This handsome boy deserves an extraordinary & knowledgeable donkey family who will love him for all his days!

Little Jazz! Oh this boy….. 😆 Jazz had an incredible family that loved him since he was 6 months old. After his companion of many years passed away from laminitis, Jazz’s parents made the difficult decision to find a safe place for him to live out his life as they were quickly making a transition to a retirement home more appropriate for their needs. With heavy hearts, but much faith, they moved into their retirement home, and Jazz moved into his-Healing Hearts! Welcome Mr. Jazz!! You are a spitfire and hilarious addition to our hearts and herd.

Time to meet the newest girls! A few months ago we were asked to take in 2 sweet, senior Arabian mares. These girls had been living in pasture for quite some time, without much human interaction. Years prior, they had had several babies, and even a little bit of training. Right before they arrived, Margaret had major dental surgery, and there was a hole in her nasal cavity that needed to heal. Through time, medical care and support from our medical team & staff, this gorgeous girl is healing nicely. Her best friend, Sword, has struggled with lameness issues and is being assisted with special gel shoes. These gorgeous girls are very bonded, and will only be adopted together. Though Margaret may recall her previous training from years ago, we have not worked with her specifically due to her rehab needs. Sword will only be available as a BEAUTIFUL and stunning companion. If you are interested in giving these girls a forever home, please email [email protected] Together, WE are Healing Hearts. ————#arabian #arabianhorse #horses #horserescue #rescuehorse #adopt #adoption #az #arizona #scottsdale #phoenix #almarah #mare #arabianhorses #scottsdalearabianhorseshow #cavecreek #animals #animalrescue #dog #cat #animalshelter
Happy tears were shed as one of our very loved geldings, Sammy, left for his forever home. His new momma’s heart is filled with happiness, and Sammy felt the same way.

Cash is Adopted! This one melts our hearts ❤️ After losing their beloved mare, Tater, Michele and her husband visited Healing Hearts looking for a companion and buddy for their gelding, Chunky. He was extremely lonely and grieving the loss of his pasture mate. Well, of course sweet Cash won them over during their visit, and has now become an loved member of their family! Cash and Chunky are great pals, and mom & dad are so grateful for the new boy in their lives! Thank you Michele & John! Cash is going to have an amazing forever home!

Our big girl Iris has been adopted 💗Just two months ago, this beautiful Belgian mare was dumped at an Oklahoma killpen after years of serving her humans. We knew she would find an incredible future through our rescue program, and an angel donor stepped up to assist with her bail, transport and quarantine fees. Truly an amazing blessing for this giant hearted girl. Iris found her match this week with a loving family who has 10 heavenly acres in Utah. Her new barn, property and parents are a dream come true! Thank you to everyone who helped create this miracle for Iris, a miracle we wish for every one of our rescued horses.
