Please read this entire posting.
Our tour starts at 130pm and will be an hour or so.
The Horse Shelter serves as a sanctuary for New Mexico’s abandoned, abused, and neglected horses. Rescued horses will be rehabilitated and adopted whenever possible to environments supporting their well-being and future long-term care.
First and foremost, we are dedicated to providing a safe, healthy environment for rescued horses. We follow up on every report we receive of horse abuse or neglect. We disseminate information on proper horse care for horse owners and attempt to assist individuals in caring for their horses.
Dogs are not allowed at The Horse Shelter and there is no smoking allowed on the property. Our restroom is a porta-potty and we recommend folks bring their own full water bottles. Our facility is outdoors with no shade and is subject to high winds and large temperature fluctuations, please bring plenty of layers. There is little to no cell service in our area and the surrounding areas including along Highway 14 for several miles in both directions from General Goodwin Road (County Road 55A).
General Goodwin Rd. and Old Cash Ranch Rd. (the final 5 miles into the ranch) are highly traveled dirt roads that are subject to washboard and rocks. The road is bumpy but passable for low-clearance vehicles if the road is dry.
When you get to the ranch, follow the sign that says "Barns and Paddocks" and drive until you see the big barn and the parking lot.
Releases are required and I will bring them for each attendee to sign.
Cancellations must be 48 hours in advance unless an emergency has occurred.
Guests will only be allowed if there are spaces still available after December 1, 2025
