Imagine a better

World For Horses

We are Colorado Horse Rescue, and we work to continuously reimagine what’s possible and create a reality where safe solutions exist for every horse.

FORGING AHEAD

TOGETHER

In the hands of a skilled farrier, raw steel is shaped by fire and pressure. It takes heat. It takes force. But with care and vision, something strong, and lasting, is forged.

At Colorado Horse Rescue, we face the same test. The pressure is rising: more horses waiting, more families asking for help, more urgency than ever before. Yet like the farrier at the forge, we will not back down.

Together, with our herd of supporters, we are forging something stronger than rescue alone, a future where traditions are reimagined in the best interest of horses, humans, and the partnerships we share.

A MOVEMENT STARTS WITH ONE THING.

MOVEMENT.

 

Founded in 1986, Colorado Horse Rescue is proud to be the longest-standing horse rescue in the state. As such, the equine community in Colorado relies on us to support at-risk horses where other parts of the equine industry cannot. As a 501(c)(3) impact organization, Colorado Horse Rescue exists to build a better future for horses, one life at a time.

The

Issue

Every week, an average of 17 horses are sold at the livestock auction in our community. Approximately seven are purchased by kill buyers and enter a potentially deadly pipeline. We rescue as many of these animals as possible, in addition to accepting and rehoming horses from families facing personal crises.
