National Treasure Mustang Rescue and Sanctuary
Providing safety and loving care to iconic native wild equine removed by our government from their homes in the west.
Poncho and Gypsy
Two friends
These mustangs have been bonded from the very beginning. We don't know if they were removed from the wild at the same time, but they were rescued by us at the same time. I wonder what their story is. I know they are happy now.
With your support you are assuring them that their friendship is lifelong.
Brandy, Shadow, Calypso
Three Amigos
These three have been together since 2016. Don't think for a minute that mustangs and burros can't be best buddies. These three are proof of that.
Cisco
Small & Mighty
Don't let the size fool ya, Cisco is the leader. When he gives the stinkeye you better pay attention, bandmates. Don't get me wrong though, they all are bonded and are always looking out for each other. Cisco, however, thinks that ALL the treats are HIS.
We depend on tax deductible donations from our generous fans and community.

Meet the Herd
Brandy, our first rescue.
Brandy was born at Litchfield Holding Facility in Susanville, California. Her mother was rounded up 2014 from the Little Owyhee Horse Management Area. aka: HMA Brandy was almost a year old when we rescued her on March 16, 2015.
Poncho is our wildest of the wild ones
Poncho was rescued from the Carson City Prison in January 2018 as a yearling. His motto is' "Look but don't touch."
Shadow the Burro
Shadow was rescued from Litchfield Corrals in March of 2016. He is the clown of the bunch. You can't beat those cute, silly donkey antics and expressions. He was rounded up/captured from the McGee Mountains in Nevada. We are going to add more burros as soon as we can. They are fast disappearing under the "management" of the Bureau of Land Management.
Calypso, Mr. friendly and burro buddy
Calypso was rescued with Shadow the burro at the same adoption event. They shared the same prison at Litchfield Corrals in Susanville, CA. Calypso was removed from Humboldt HMA in 2015 and was sprung from jail with his buddy in March 2016 as a yearling.
Cisco, he might be small, but he's the first in charge
Cisco was busted out of the Carson Prison, along with Poncho and Gypsy, who you are about to meet. He is not as timid around people as Poncho, but he is awfully curious. He is a bit of a clown, like the burro and you will enjoy watching his videos. Cisco was born on the Virginia Range along with Poncho and Gypsy and were added to our sanctuary in January 2018. He comes with hints of ancient bloodlines.
Gypsy, the other girl, sweet and beautiful
Gypsy came from the Virginia Range and was bailed from the Carson Prison along with Poncho and Cisco in January 2018. She is always there for breakfast and treats and is willing to share her hay with her friends. She looks like polished brass in the sunshine.

Our Mission
Watch us run
There is a huge need for safe sanctuary for wild horses and burros. Our mission is to provide that to as many at risk mustangs and burros as possible. We dream big here. We want to expand with more land, more rescues and many supporters.
They may have been stripped of their rightful lands where they were born and the loss of their freedom, but our mission is to give them back the safety and enough room to run, play and enjoy a natural place again.
We will save these iconic national treasures. We will gentle, feed, provide hoof care, vet care, training and above all, love and kindness. We will get them ready for adoption when possible and will have a strict vetting process and adoption contracts to assure a lifetime of love and safety.
Our mission is only possible with the support of people who love them as much as we do. Let’s do this, horse heroes!!❤️
