Because the structures are in such close physical proximity to the horses themselves, caregivers are able to assess and address each animal’s special needs more quickly and efficiently. 

For example, our warm, well-lit indoor clinic makes it possible for the horses to receive faster medical care with minimal stress levels ― a crucial part of the healing process. And the spacious covered training arena lets multiple horses work simultaneously on rehabilitation as well as year-round riding practice.

Portions of the arena serve as a hay barn, tack room, feed room and equipment area, all of which help keep Horse Haven tidy, organized and hassle-free. 

Join us on a walking tour through Horse Haven, one of the most beautiful and majestic places at the Sanctuary. Tours happen every Tuesday and Friday at 10 a.m. (duration: 30 minutes | distance: .5 mile).

Please be aware that this tour takes us through sand and uneven terrain, so navigating this tour by wheelchair, though possible, is difficult. (Service animals may come on the tour.)

Enrich lives by volunteering with the equines at Horse Haven from feeding horses to cleaning a pasture area to taking a horse for a walk — you’ll be improving the lives of the horses and our other equine friends.
