Equines needing a Home

Thank you for considering to adopt an equine, we are always looking for homes for our rescued horses, ponies and donkeys. It’s so rewarding offering an equine who may have gone to slaughter a new life in a loving home.

To ensure the continued safety of the equines all homes must meet the certain requirements which you can find here.  Meet just some of our equines looking for their forever home, for more information on each of them please contact the Sanctuary.  Below is just a selection of our residents looking for their forever home, there are plenty more, please contact us to find out more about them. 

We couldn’t continue our work saving equines from slaughter without people like you!

I am a healthy female trotter in fine fettle, I’m 24 years old and have all my papers. I’m really quite dominant with other horses, I don’t like them getting in my way at meal times but I’m good with people. I handle well and would love a new home, could you be my new people?

I am about 13 years old, a large male donkey that has an unusual long haired coat which needs regular brushing. I will always come and see you for a treat but can be wary of treatments like the farrier. I like horses as my friends so I don’t necessarily need to be with another donkey.

Emeraude & Graziella have become really closely bonded since Emmeraude’s old friend died and we must be rehomed together. Emmeraude is in her late 20’s and is a cob Normande with arthritis and ringbone which can make her feet hard to do but she’s a big girl at 17 hands.

I am a Shetland Pony with a very cheeky personality. I love snacks and treats but that’s ok because I need extra nutrition due to my age. I arrived at the sanctuary last year and now I am looking for a kind friendly human to give me a forever home. I’m very loving.

I’m a 22 year old donkey, I’m a quiet unassuming girl and love a good brush and a treat. I need a rug in the winter and soaked hay and I love an open airy shelter. I have COPD which affects my breathing and sometimes I need medication for this.

Eclair is looking for a home as a companion horse. He is 6 years old gelding trotter and is 16hh. He is a truly lovely, kind boy, so good to handle and enjoys going for walks. Sadly he can't be ridden due to arthritis in his back, but would make a wonderful companion horse and lives out 24/7.

Poppy is an unbacked 11 year old Ardennes x mare. She needs an experienced home to bring her gently on as she has been badly treated in the past. She can be timid, but warms up to you once she knows you and loves a good bottom scratch. Poppy stands at 13.2h and is a good doer.

Mirabelle is a mini shetland mare, in her mid-twenties. She's looking for a nice retirement home where she will get all the pampering she deserves. Mirabelle is a sweet and gentle mare who gets on well with other ponies, she does have some breathing issues, so will do best in a home with plenty of grass.

I’m 20 years young, and the lovely people at Pegasus saved me from a terrible fate in January 2021. I can be ridden with a little gentle retraining and have many years ahead of me. People say I’m friendly and easy-to-do. I’m happy being handled and don’t mind the farrier giving me a pedicure. My best friend is Igor and I’d love to be rehomed with him if possible, but if not I can go on my own.

We’re known as The Donkey Family. We’re a family of two girls (mum and daughter) and one boy and we were rescued just a few weeks ago in early February. I’m called Utile and I’m the eldest at 16 years old. We’re looking for a home in France where we can stay together - we’ve always been together and make a fantastic team! We’re friendly and can offer lots of love and cuddles for our new family.

Matilda is a young mare, around 1m10, who has been at the Sanctuary since being rescued almost a year ago. Matilda is used to being around humans, but is still nervous about being touched. We are looking for a knowledgeable home with someone who has the experience to help her gain trust and confidence.

My name’s Henry and they say I’m 14 years young. I was saved by the humans at The Pegasus Sanctuary in December and since then I’ve found a wonderful new family here, with my best friend Theo, who’s 8, and young Olive, who’s just a baby at 10 months old. I think she thinks I’m her Mum! We’re all best friends and need to find a forever home together in France.

I’m 24 years old, but I don’t feel it! I’ve only been here a month - my last place wasn’t very nice and I can get a bit frightened if you move too quickly behind me. Before I was saved, I used to be a ride-and-drive pony, but now I just need a nice place to retire and eat lots of yummy grass. I’ve made best friends with another trotter called Nazca. I’d really like to be rehomed with her if possible, but I could go on my own to an experienced home.

Spot & Amie

Spot & Amie are two well behaved ponies, well handled and friendly, looking for their forever home together. Spot & Amie were rescued over a year ago when Amie was young and Spot just a baby. They are about 1m tall but have a little more growing to do. They are used to being around people and dogs.

Gold & Sorrell

Gold is a trotter mare in her early 20s; Sorrell is also a trotter boy and a baby at just 7 months old. They were rescued separately, but as soon as Sorrell arrived, Gold took her under her wing and they have been inseparable since then and helped each other overcome the trauma they’ve both suffered.

Gold was saved in December and Sorrell in January, saved at just 6 months old. At the moment, we’re looking for a home in France where they can stay together. Gold suffers from Wobbler’s and has some problems with her eye which requires medication.
