Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse Rescue

Draft horses are truly gentle giants, with a loving nature and sweet disposition. They are able to do so much more than plow fields and pull carts. They make great trail partners and can do many disciplines like dressage and eventing. Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse Rescue was founded because we saw a need. We wanted the ability to help find loving homes for these majestic animals, and, if a home could not be found, the rescue would become a forever home. We are a 501 (c)(3) organization located in Western New York and our goal is to provide a refuge for draft horses. The focus is to rehabilitate, retrain and re-home draft horses that are in slaughterhouses, feedlots auctions or have been surrendered to the rescue. For those horses that are not adoptable, Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse Rescue will be their forever home.

Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse Rescue, founded in 2013, provides customized care to abused and neglected draft horses and a second chance at life through adoption. Each draft horse is provided the necessary food, shelter, healthcare, and training to prepare them to be adopted to a suitable home. For those draft horses that are unable to be adopted due to medical or behavioral needs, Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse rescue will provide care for the remainder of their lives. In the event that an adopter is no longer willing or able to care for an adoptee, the adoptee is to be returned to Roanchar Ranch Draft Horse Rescue. Each draft horse rescued will be provided with a microchip to assure that they do not land in the slaughter pipeline after being adopted.
