EVERY dollar counts!

Our Story

Laughing Pony Rescue was established as a 501(c)3 in May of 2010. However, the inception of what came to be LPR’s mission began many years ago in the heart of a little girl being raised in New York City. Her name is Celia Sciacca and from as long as she can remember, horses were her saving grace. Celia got her first horse at ten years old, Hot Foot Honey. She used to ride her ba****ck through the streets of New York.

Celia’s first rescue was an Appaloosa stallion named Don, who was on his way to the feed lot to get fattened up and then sent to the slaughter-house for meat. Celia was among the first to go to Nevada to help rescue their wild Mustangs. Celia would take on what others would deem the "untrainable" horse. She often helped other rescues to train difficult horses so that they could be placed in good homes. She helped individual owners with similar problems as well.

Celia is the President of Laughing Pony Rescue, Inc., founded with the purpose of rescuing and rehabilitating sick, abandoned, abused and slaughter-bound horses of any breed. Each day she and her team of volunteers take care of up to 20 horses at the Laughing Pony Rescue Ranch. Celia has rescued or assisted in the rescue of more than 1200 horses. She nursed many of these rescues back to health healing their mind, body and spirit. Finally she created a detailed criteria that allowed her to pair rehabilitated horses with loving homes that were sure to live up to her standards.
