The owners are top notch in their knowledge of organic feeding, care and treatment of the winderful horses they care for who have come from often horrendous circumstances. The horses are happy, gentle, healthy and a gift to those of us and the community that visits them. As a team we all work together to maintain the best conditions for them. Fundraising is a foundation of all we do. As horses are inherently highly intelligent, they are cared for as such by the owners and volunteers. Safety is also a priority here. I have ridden in various countries and the US and am always impressed.

I was fortunate to participate in a work community day to give back. I was amazed at the dedication all the people at NSHR showed. They truly are dedicated to helping these animals. If people like them who have inspired me to give back on a regular basis. If they weren't over an hour away from my home I would valunteer there often.

They knew every animal's back story and you could tell the horses have built strong bonds with them. I use NSHR as my amazon smile charity of choice and hope that they can continue their mission helping these wonderful horses.

What an amazing place!! I was told that I should volunteer as part of my therapy. Never in my mind would I have thought that this place would be a huge part of my healing journey. The people and animals are all amazing. You visit this rescue and you feel as though you are transported to a different place. The horses may be the rescues, but they are also the rescuers.

This organization is very responsible and humane in their program for horses rescued. If under their evaluation a horse is deemed unadoptable the horses is allowed to live stress free in the sanctuary the rescue created. The thrust of this organization is to reach outbtobthr community with the intention of educating all about the current plight of the American mustang.
North Shore horse rescue and sanctuary is a not for profit worth supporting. As of late the group has partnered with Heart2Heart an Equine Enlightened mental health program .

They provide a much-needed place for those unwanted and old horses to live out their retirement years in a loving atmosphere and in peace. Nice, welcoming and tireless people who run the barn.

North Shore Horse Rescue never misses a chance to rescue anyone in need. Near first on the scene of wildfires helping move horses out of the path and caring for them til the fires were out to offering a helping hand to flooded neighbors after a storm, the North Shore Horse Rescue reaches far beyond their farm to help whenever and wherever they can.

This place doesn't just save horses, it saves people. My brother in law lost his only child in 2013 and he was lost. He is now taking care of the horses and it's been his saving grace, they've saved each other. The work they do here is phenomenal.
