Our Adoptable Animals
Adoption Process
We require an adoption application and an inspection of the potential new home. This application is extensive and will ask for your veterinarians name among other information. There is non refundable fee for this application.
Our contract states that the adopted animal may not be sold or given away under any circumstances and will be returned to D-S Rescue if for any reason the animal cannot be kept. The adoption fees vary depending on the animal adopted

This is Jean's Girl, or Norma Jean as we call her. She was found wandering the desert all alone and starving to death. A good Samaritan found her and tried, to no avail, to find where she came from.
She is tattooed and because of that we were able to obtain some information about her. From what we've found Norma Jean is a Tb who was born in 96, making her 24 years old. She sold as a yearling at the Keeneland Auction, a well known auction for race horses, but she was never raced. Unfortunately that's where her information ends.
She is so sweet so we know at one point she was loved but unfortunately we may never know the in-between. All we know is that we will make sure she is loved from this point forward. She is probably close to 17 hands tall and was amazing for the farrier. We know this gal will make an amazing horse once her recovery is finished but unfortunately that could take close to a year.
Prayers, Shares and Donations are greatly appreciated for Norma Jean and her recovery □
Sanctuary Horses
He is in his late 30s, yes thats right, and came to us about 4 years ago skin and bones. He has made a beautiful recovery but due to his age and the fact that he is mostly blind, he will most likely remain here for the rest of his days.
He is on a special diet due to his age and the fact that his teeth do not work correctly. He is unable to process hay so he must be fed Timothy pellets and senior feed which adds to our expenses monthly...completely worth it!! He’s a very kind old soul that will still allow a rider and loves his time in the arena!

Though we don't take in Sanctuary animals, unfortunately in Rescue sometimes horses brought to us will never be healthy enough to be adopted out.
This is the case with Fortune. He is a Miniature Horse who is in his early 30s. He came to us 2 summers ago in a owner surrender case with half a dozen other minis, all emaciated, with long over due feet and minimal veterinary care. He, and 2 others in there late 20s to early 30s all became sanctuary horses.
If you're interested in sponsoring one of our Sanctuary horses please go to our Donations page.
