Retire a Horse, Renew a Life

Old, sick horses should be placed in a pasture for retirement. Providing a peaceful and natural environment allows them to live out their remaining days with dignity and comfort. Golden Hooves, as a retirement pasture, offers open space, fresh air, and the companionship of other horses, all of which contribute to their physical and emotional well-being.

These horses have often spent years serving humans in various roles, such as transportation, work, or competition. At Golden Hooves, our mission, as a gesture of gratitude and compassion, is ensuring they have a safe and restful place to retire.  This is the least we can do. Proper care, including veterinary attention, appropriate nutrition, and shelter, will continue throughout their retirement to maintain their quality of life.

Ultimately, placing old and sick horses in Golden Hooves honors their contributions and reflects a humane and respectful approach to animal welfare.
