We have to mention our very own SHAMROCK ROAD on St Patrick’s day!

AKA Sham is the great great great grandson of Secretariat.

He endured over 60 starts in racing which is absolute abuse.

After he retired from racing, he was labeled dangerous at a barn facing euthanasia which is completely false.

Our friend, Mary Johnson, rescued him and he is now living the rest of his life at our sanctuary.
He is anything but dangerous but instead quite the opposite and he is even one of our Hippotherapy horses we use with special needs children.

All of the mares love this handsome boy as do all of his human friends and visitors.

He loves to run and play with his ball, he whinnies when we approach him, all of the mares hang over the fence to be closer to him and he is so gentle and calm around children and adults. He loves to be scratched behind his ears and he loves carrots and apples and he especially loves children.
We are honored to have him with us for the rest of his life.

If you would like to sponsor shamrock or any other horse from our herd click on the donate link on our web site and you can see all of the fun opportunities!

We loved having a very special group of High School girls volunteering for Beta hours and hours for National Honor Society.

They cleaned stalls, cleaned water troughs, groomed horses and hand grazed horses.
The herd thoroughly enjoyed their sweet and joyful energy.

We are grateful for their help 🙏

We hope everyone is safe from the storm last night. Our horses stayed under shelter in the barn with lots of love and care. All are healthy and happy!

We are excited to see blue skies this morning as our National Honor Society friends come to partake in BETA hours with the herd.

Did you know we offer BETA hour opportunities at the sanctuary? Email us to learn more at [email protected].

Happy birthday to our big, bold and beautiful Cupola. We are in awe of your strength, perseverance and nurturing nature.

A broodmare from Juddmonte farms in Kentucky, once owned by Prince Khalid bin Abdullah ended up in the slaughter pipeline abused and abandoned.
We are so grateful for Susan Kayne who bailed you out and now you are safe with us forever.
We are honored to have you at our sanctuary and will continue to treasure you each day for the rest of your life.
wishing you the happiest of birthdays to the sweetest girl 🙏💕❤️🎂🎁🥰 We love you!

Nap time 💤💤💤💤

Since horses are prey animals, when a horse lays down it’s a sign that they feel safe and secure in their environment.

Join us in celebrating our herd members who share a birthday in March! 🎂🐴

Meet Cupola, a beautiful, shy mare who is slowly showing more of her sweet personality as she continues to thrive at the sanctuary with her best friend Ladybug.

Born at the prestigious Juddmonte Farms in Kentucky, Cupola boasts a noble lineage as the third generation bred for Prince Khalid Bin Abdullah of Saudi Arabia. After foaling two beautiful fillies in 2019 and 2020, Cupola struggled to conceive for a third consecutive year. This unfortunate circumstance led her to a sale in New Holland, Pennsylvania, where she was to be sold by the pound.

Thankfully, Unbridled Thoroughbred Foundation rescued her in 2020, giving her a new lease on life as we welcomed her to Zorro's Crossing Horse Sanctuary. She now resides with her best friend, Ladybug, and enjoys participating in mud baths and galloping across the pasture.

🥳Send Cupola a birthday donation as we share her story of transformation at https://www.zorroscrossing.org/donate

Enrichment is a key part in the lives of our herd members at the sanctuary.
ENRICHMENT meaning - the action of improving or enhancing the quality or value of something

Baby is a very curious and smart young horse.
Sophia took her on a walk to see her favorite neighbors and herd of cows then through a small obstacle course.
We try to make each horse’s needs met where they are at the time.

Many of Our herd members have endured so much through racing.

Enrichment activities are also great bonding experiences between the human and the horse.
