ABOUT THE NON PROFIT: EQUINE SAFE HAVE
SaddleHawk Ranch is home to the nonprofit organization, Equine Safe Haven. They have their own website, volunteers and board of directors. www.equinesafehaven.com
SaddleHawk Ranch is an Equine facility that specializes in accommodating carriage driving. There is plenty of room to roam on 37 acres, with obstacle courses and challenging trails.
Equine Safe Haven helps support a number of Standardbreds and Draft horses that reside on the Ranch between Oct 15th to April 30th. Some are United States Trotting Association Registered- and originally raced. All are from the Amish areas of our Country, like Ohio, Iowa, New York, Kentucky, Pennsylvania etc.
The horses in the driving programs, were purchased from Bowie Texas Livestock Sale Barn. SaddleHawk Ranch worked with Border Horse Slaughter Rescue to get them saved from going to slaughter in Mexico. Equine Safe Haven helped rehabilitate them at the Ranch.
At SaddleHawk Ranch they rehab; Get medical attention, vaccinations, good food, love, and then are enjoyed by all. The Standardbreds especially are so well behaved that they are in parades, driving on the roads, teaching all ages, and novice horsepersons. It is sheer joy and a blessing to us.
Follow us as we continue our journey with horses here at SaddleHawk Ranch. Also check out Equine Safe Haven, the 501(c)3 nonprofit charitable organization, that offers programs using these horses for the economically and physically disadvantaged - for low cost
