Rescue for horses and people
Rescue for horses and people
The Lord delights in taking the broken and restoring for His Kingdom purposes. We help start the healing process for horses and people.
A little known contender (such as a racehorse) that makes an unexpectedly good showing. God uses Dark Horses” all throughout the Bible!
At Dark Horse Rescue Ranch, we believe in the transformative power of horses and the healing grace of Jesus Christ. Our equine-assisted approach is rooted in faith, recognizing that true restoration—whether for a horse or a person—comes through love, trust, and God’s redeeming power.
Horses have a unique way of mirroring our emotions and teaching us valuable lessons about trust, leadership, and vulnerability. Through guided interactions with these incredible animals, we help individuals who have experienced trauma, abuse, or hardship rediscover their identity, worth, and strength in Christ. Our program is not just about horsemanship; it’s about heart restoration.
By combining biblical principles with equine-assisted learning, we create a safe space where brokenness meets healing, fear gives way to faith, and hopelessness is replaced with purpose. Whether it’s through groundwork, riding, or simply being in the presence of these majestic creatures, each experience at Dark Horse Rescue Ranch is an opportunity for growth, renewal, and a deeper connection with God’s love.
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 147:3
