Welcome to Jackson Hole Horse Rescue  HazlikFamily/kissin3.jpg
We all have important values and ideals, things we care about. This site is for individuals who have a desire to help unwanted, abused, neglected and elderly horses find peace and safety in a caring home.  We are a NO KILL RESCUE, so some will live their lives out at this rescue facility, finding dignity and security in their lives.  Some will be rehabilitated and adopted to homes that have all they need to thrive.  As in all things, some will find a humane relief to their suffering and horrid despair.   Our hope is to aid as many of our equine friends as we can.  For a list of needed items for our friends and/or making a tax deductible donation, click on the above  "Getting Involved" menu button. Donations of time, materials, and/or money are tax deductible because we are a 501(c)(3) public charity.

Communicating isn't always easy but we'll try to include photos and images that convey our message.  We'll also include specific information about our organization and its members, so no one forgets the people behind the rescue effort.
Some pictures are disturbing and we all recognize suffering and need. Our goal is to instill a sense of hope and empowerment in those willing to step up and take tangible action to help these horses..

On the lighter side...Meet our friends, Clem the Cowboy and Tripper the Trail Horse.   When they heard we were trying to help our equine friends, they  hurried  down the mountain to see if there was anything they could do to help.  Sometimes they just get in the way, but hey, their hearts are in the right place.  So......Clem and Tripper will be around to help out.  Come join them!

OUR INSPIRATION...SHADOW
This is Shadow, a pure-blooded Arabian gelding.  Jonesy has owned Shadow for 16 years and Shadow has proven himself to be an intelligent, brave, and loyal friend. Shadow and Jonesy have traveled thousands of miles on some of the most beautiful and daring trails in Wyoming, but as Shadow aged (foaled in 1988) he developed arthritis in his left hip.  Since letting Shadow suffer or, worse, putting him down wasn't an option, we determined that rest, supplemental nutrition, therapy, and pain relief treatment was our choice. We have retired him from the rigorous mountains that he loves and he now seems happy with flat land and the grand kids for an occasional trail ride. At this time (June '09) he is in need of some expensive intravenous drugs to help his arthritic hip.  Donations anyone?
