Help Twenty Research Horses

Twenty former research horses are in immediate need of placement.   Scarlet is just 10 years old with much of her life yet to live and enjoy.   Trudy is missing her right eye, but is one of the sweetest horses you could ever hope to meet.  Bailey was a champion jumper before being donated into research.  These are just a few of the beautiful Thoroughbreds whose time in research has come to an end.  They are in urgent need of new homes or sanctuary.   As Kindness Ranch cannot currently accept additional horses,  we are actively working with this institution to find these horses new homes or sanctuaries.  Thanks to a generous grant from the ASPCA, we can work together with people like you to find these horses new homes.   

The vast majority of animals in research are euthanized.  This research institution has turned to us in trust to find homes for these horses.  We hope additional institutions will also consider adoption programs for their research animals.  

The horses are between the ages of 10 and 19.  Many were in the racing industry prior to being donated into research.  They have participated in many nutrition and physiology studies, but they are healthy.   None have been ridden during their time in research so only advanced riders should consider testing their riding abilities. 

If you are interested in adoption or you have a place at your sanctuary, please contact Karen@Kindnessranch.org immediately.  We will send you an application.   Please apply regardless of your ability to pay for transport.  There is a high probability that we will have a number of horses brought to Wyoming from the East coast, and we will transport the horses to sanctuaries from here.
