Red Bucket Equine Rescue

Our mission is to save and rehabilitate horses, restore their trust in humankind, and find them safe, loving and permanent adoptive homes. Red Bucket was founded because we couldn’t turn our backs. We understand that “rescue is only the beginning,” and we have created a model of rescue that significantly increases the probability of success. We are committed to saving and serving slaughter-bound, abused, high risk, and desperate horses. Our dedicated team lovingly cares for the horses as they heal and are assessed, rehabilitated and trained in preparation for their forever homes. Once the horse is carefully matched with an adopter, our Field Support Team partners with the adopter to remove any barriers to success and facilitates a happy and safe transition. Our program removes obstacles and provides the tools, training and support that help keep the horses happy and safe in their new home. The amazing transformations of hundreds of shattered horses and their second chances are only possible through the generosity of others who wish to help us help the horses. The Red Bucket Team and the horses that they serve are deeply grateful for the donations that make our meaningful work possible.
