Sanctuary Program

Poem by Athey Thompson
I shall
Gather up
All the lost souls
That wander this earth
All the ones that are alone
All the ones that are broken
All the ones that never really fitted in
I shall gather them all up
And together we shall find our home
​
Sabrina

Sabrina
Sabrina is a sweet senior mare with melanoma. Though this is a common issue with grey horses, Sabrina has an abnormally large amount of tumors. She was entered into sanctuary due to the amount of care she requires.

Silver
Silver is a senior gelding who has been ETMHD's ambassador from the beginning, He was pulled from a livestock auction and became the face of the rescue. Silver is a senior who requires a special mash due to a lack of teeth.

Anne Bonny
Anne Bonny is a small pony mare that suffered a horrific injury to her hind leg before coming to rescue. When we took her in she was missing the bottom third of her hind leg. Anne Bonny now runs around on a prostethic made just for her.

Delilah
Delilah has been in our sactuary program for a long time. She is a gentle soul and very sweet. She is completely blind but gets around perfectly with her pasture mates.

Honey Smacks
Honey Smacks aka Honey Sass, as she was dubbed at the UT Large Animal Hospital, is a young foal we pulled from a live stock auction. She is being treated for lesions in her joints and our hope is one day she can be adopted out.

Twinkle Toes
Twinkle Toes is the sweetest little girl. She was part of a hoarding case and was horribly starved and crippled from lack of care. She is in the sanctuary program because she has to have specialized farrier care that includes foal shoes.
SARGON

Mocha
Mocha is what we call a little Dinosaur. She is a very senior lady with some hind end lameness. She also is missing quite a few teeth and requires a diet of senior feed.
This beautiful lady used to help with an equine therapy program and is the sweetest soul. You can meet her at many of our open houses.
