Safe Haven Equine Rescue
Safe Haven Equine Rescue was established by some of Northeast Texas' caring horsemen and horsewomen. These dedicated individuals are responsible for the rescue, funding, and day to day care of Safe Haven's special residents.
Safe Haven Equine Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of abused, retired, or neglected horses. It is our goal to provide assistance to horse owners in time of need, rescue horses, restore them to optimal health through diet and veterinary care when necessary, and find adoptive homes for them when possible. If a horse cannot be appropriately adopted due to age or disability, Safe Haven will provide a home where they can peacefully live out the rest of their lives with dignity.
Safe Haven Equine Rescue was established in 2000 from a dream of founder Ruth Meadows. Since its establishment, Safe Haven has rescued hundreds of horses. In 2006 Ruth retired as executive director. Her successor, Richard Fincher, and a new board has taken over the organization. Learn more about Richard, his plans, and Safe Haven board members on the "About Us" page of this web site.
Our non-profit organization is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation, and sanctuary of neglected, abused, or retired horses and to providing a safe haven or loving adoption for these majestic animals.
We need help in many ways. Volunteers are the key to any successful organization such as ours. Without them, we would have to close the doors forever. As you can imagine, we also need help in many areas that do not require horse experience.
