30,000+ horses are waiting for homes at a rescue or sanctuary.
Horses spend an average of 300+ days waiting for a new home.
The right horse.
The right person.
A loving home.
The ASPCA is raising the profile of equine adoption so rescues and shelters can help every horse in need. We work with industry and adoption partners across the country to provide horses with the veterinary and behavioral care they need to thrive. Our partners are expert matchmakers who care about forming fulfilling connections for both horse and adopter.
Alongside our work with the equine welfare community, we are dedicated to bringing public awareness and interest to horse adoption. An ASPCA study estimated 1.2 million households — or approximately 2.3 million adults — in the U.S. have both the resources and desire to adopt an at-risk equine. Connecting these adopters with their right horse means lives transformed and lives saved.
