Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary

Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary's mission is to rescue equines from neglect, abuse, abandonment and slaughter. Additionally, we rehabilitate, adopt and/or provide a safe and loving sanctuary to those equines who need a forever home. Through education, we empower individuals to learn about Premarin and horse slaughter.

I would like to thank you once again for all of your kindness and hospitality in allowing us, The Saguaro Horsemen's Group, to visit the ranch in Amado yesterday. ...The new Visitor Center is beautiful, and was a pleasant and comfortable place to hold our monthly PotLuck Lunch and regular business meeting. Really appreciated it !!
We especially enjoyed the video, and having the chance to hear you speak about the history of Equine Voices, from the humble beginnings in 2004 through all of the challenges and successes that have marked these past 19 years. So pleased that you also took the time to answer everyone's questions, and even expanded in detail when explaining the horrors of the Premarin crisis.
The walking tour was nice, although short... but perhaps next time we will have our members more prepared for the full walkabout.
Karen, you made a nice impression on our group... I know that several of them will be making individual donations... in addition to those of us who are already doing so. We will also decide on a group donation sometime early next year.
You deserve a lot of credit for sticking to your vision, and for making responsible and savvy decisions regarding Equine Voices. True leadership! The Mustang Barn, Visitor Center, and many of the projects we saw in the 10 acre "expansion" stand as a true testament to dedication and hard work. Keep it going strong...
Once again, a hearty thank you from the small but mighty "13" of our members who had such a great time during our visit.

Pam Duncan:
It was such a pleasure meeting you both yesterday, as well as all the precious horses/burros and adorable little Jack! ????
Diane, thank you for the entertaining and informative tour of the amazing ranch. Some of the stories surrounding those horses are horrific, but the amazing hard work you all do for them is just magical. Running that organization TAKES organization, and I could see there is a very effective system in place. Between that and the huge hearts of the staff and volunteers, Equine Voices is obviously a tremendous success.

I'd give 6 stars if I could. Melissa and Donna are phenomenal handlers, true caring professionals. Karen went above and beyond to be resourceful and proactive during the process of adopting my first horse. A truly memorable experience. I can't thank these people enough.

I have visited this Sanctuary several times. The horses were well fed and well cared for. Many people would be fortunate if they had the quality of care these horses are given.
The organization has only one primary goal - to rescue and care for horses. I volunteer for several organizations and can say honestly, Equine Voices is one of the best and one where I can truly feel good about the work I do.

From our website "equinevoices.org":
Dear Diane,
I can't thank you enough for the wonderful tour you gave the 10 Sassy Saguaro Sisters. With such wonderful weather, it was delightful to spend almost 2 hours with the horses and hearing their stories. Many of us just enjoyed being able to pet them. The work you all are doing for these horses is amazing and will hopefully be sustainable for many years to come. There obviously is no shortage of horses in need. This was a real eye opener for all of us who had been so unaware. Thank you again for giving so freely of your time and expertise, and making our tour so very interesting!
