About us
Amagansett Horse Rescue is a New York City-based non-profit dedicated to providing a safe haven for neglected, abused, and at-risk horses. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome these majestic animals, ensuring they receive the care, compassion, and respect they deserve. Through community outreach and education, we strive to raise awareness about equine welfare and inspire a deeper connection between people and horses. Together, we’re building brighter futures, one horse at a time.
At Amagansett Horse Rescue, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care and support for horses in need. From rescue to rehabilitation and beyond, our services are designed to ensure the well-being of every horse that comes through our doors.
1. Rescue & Emergency Intervention
We respond to urgent calls to save horses from neglect, abuse, abandonment, and unsafe living conditions. Working with local authorities, veterinarians, and other animal welfare organizations, we ensure these horses are brought to safety and receive immediate care.
2. Rehabilitation & Medical Care
Our team provides individualized rehabilitation plans for each horse, including:
- Veterinary Care: Medical evaluations, treatment for injuries, vaccinations, and parasite control.
- Nutritional Support: Custom feeding programs to restore health and strength.
- Emotional Healing: Gentle handling and behavioral therapy to rebuild trust and confidence.
3. Adoption & Foster Program
Finding loving homes is at the heart of our mission. After completing their rehabilitation, horses are placed in homes where they will receive proper care and attention. Our adoption process includes:
- Thorough screenings to match horses with the right families.
- Support and guidance for new owners to ensure long-term success.
- A foster care option for individuals or families who wish to help on a temporary basis.
4. Sanctuary Services
For horses who are elderly, disabled, or unable to be rehomed, we provide a permanent sanctuary where they can live out their days in peace and dignity. Our facilities offer spacious pastures, shelter, and ongoing care to ensure their comfort.
5. Educational Outreach
We believe in raising awareness about horse welfare and responsible ownership. Through community programs and workshops, we educate individuals on topics such as:
- Proper horse care and nutrition
- Preventing equine abuse and neglect
- The importance of adoption and rescue efforts
6. Volunteer & Engagement Opportunities
Our volunteers play an essential role in our day-to-day operations. Opportunities include:
- Assisting with horse care (feeding, grooming, and exercise)
- Facility maintenance
- Fundraising and event support
- Advocacy for equine welfare
