The best place to get a rescued horse is www.pmurescue.org
This websites specializes in rescuing PMU (Pregnant Mare Urine) mares and foals. PMU plants use the urine from pregnant mares to make Premarin which is a drug used to treat menopause. These horses are SEVERELY neglected and both the mares and foals are sent to directly to slaughter once they are no use. On this website you will find horses rescued from slaughter that are of all sizes, breeds, locations, and suitable for all disciplines. Remember that the majority of mares have been severely abused and will require a lot of work with somebody who is patient, understanding, empathetic, and has a lot of horse knowledge. These are loving horses with incredible potential for all riding disciplines.
Another place to look would be the thoroughbred retirement foundation. These horses were off the track rescued off the track. I have adopted several horses from the TRF and they have all turned out to be AMAZING horses. www.trfinc.org
www.equine.com
Is another one of my favorite places to look. You have a huge selection… you will have to just look around to find a rescue. This is the best place to look if you want a horse that is already trained (but are typically more expensive).
If you need more help or want more places to check out just let me know!
