Segunda Vida Equine Rescue

Segunda Vida Equine Rescue is York Region's only registered non-profit Equine Rescue.

Our Mission:

To provide a loving, safe and healthy environment and to protect and provide for abused, neglected, starved, injured and abandoned equines as well as special needs horses and to provide them with proper care and rehabilitation time if needed and successfully place them in forever homes with loving and caring families.

To provide all essential care and to ensure a second opportunity and quality of life.

We will continue to be the spoken voice for our silent equine partners who have suffered the horrendous fate of slaughter or whose journey have them headed in a direction with no hope for change.

 

What We Do:

Every year there are thoursands of horses that suffer from physical and psychological abuse and neglect. These equines need immediate protection.

It is our sincere goal to help as many horses as possible to have the safe, happy Second Life that they deserve in new forever homes, after years of devotion and loyal service to teh humans who ised them for showing, racing or pleasure riding. We are a compassionate group of individuals, dedicated to rescuing as many horses as possible from slaughter, neglect, abuse and to find them permanent loving homes for them when possible.

Every penny goes towards the horses for feed, hay, supplements, medical care, and othe rnecessities. There will be no tomorrow for many unwanted horses, however with your help we can save many that otherwise would perish.

We are a group of horse lovers, determined to make a difference for as many horses as feasibly possible. Sometimes this task seems insurmountable and overwhelming, but we are inspired when we touch, hear and see the horses enjoying their safe environment - as every equine deserves.

Bonsai is a 2-year old, 15.2hh, registered and papered Appaloosa colt, (currently a RIG). Bonsai is a speckled bay with a blanket and is quite the looker. 

Bonsai was a slaughter bound feedlot rescue; he is a super sweet young boy with lots of colour. 

Bonsai has nice ground manners and is in excellent health and weight. Bonsai currently lives outside 24/7 with another colt, hay only and no problems. 
Bonsai is looking for his forever home. 

Most of our Rescue horses come with an option of a free lease trial for one month. If you are interested in free lease or fostering please contact the Rescue and find out how you can help us give another equine a Second Chance. 

After the successful completion and approval of an adoption application, the horses will be micro chipped and come with an adoption contract.
