Please consider helping our sanctuary horses through the winter. We have a long list of needs as we work to restore our farm to continue providing a safe place for equines in need of a soft landing. Many of these horses have been passed through many hands and not all of them kind. We offer them a forever home where they never have to worry if someone loves them or will meet their needs. Today we are thankful to be here for or sanctuary horses!

These are the moments we can never be prepared for… A tragic, sudden loss this morning has left our family heartbroken. We lost our beloved Samoa. 💔

Samoa came to us after being rescued from neglect. She was so thin and left us questioning her age. We were told she was 19, but after looking at her teeth we knew this was impossible. We suspected Samoa was probably over 25. Samoa had dental issues and needed to gain at least 50 pounds before winter if she ever had any hope. We went to work getting Samoa everything she needed immediately. Samoa quickly recovered and made it through two winters with us, this would have been her third.

We love Samoa dearly as she taught many children how to ride and become more confident. She would stand still all day to be groomed. She loved when I grabbed a halter and lead rope and hopped on ba****ck for an early morning or late night ride in the arena. She didn’t have a mean bone in her body. I wish I had been given more time with her but I’m thankful for every moment we had together.

Gallop free my sweet Angel. 🌈

If you would like to donate to our pending 501(c)(3) nonprofit rescue and sanctuary to help more horses like Samoa have safe, loving homes please reach out to us. A little goes a long way.

ANNOUNCING Connecticut Valley Equine Rescue and Sanctuary! We are pending Federal 501(C)3 status which means we can FINALLY begin our official journey to raise funds for the horses who have been placed in our care for permanent safekeeping.

We take in horses for various reasons. We take in senior horses with special needs who are not rideable, who just need a soft place to live out their lives. We accept horses from neglect, abuse, kill pen auction, and other unsafe situations. We take in horses whose owners can no longer physically or financial care for them. We take in horses with permanent health issues preventing them from being rideable. If you or someone you know has a horse in need, please reach out to us.

We are looking for charitable tax-free donations and VOLUNTEERS! Please help us with our mission to keep these majestic creatures safe and loved!

Miss Bonnie made it to her soft landing today at Connecticut Valley Equine,LLC.

It was the most fulfilling experience to help her safely make it to Piermont, NH after her mom passed last month and she needed a new place to call home. After meeting Whitney and her barn family today, I couldn't recommend a better place for this sweet mare.
