PAH Rescued Horse Wyatt before and after

More about Wyatt

A major part of our WHY at Peaceful Acres Horses has been to rescue as many equines as we could that were once living in terrible conditions, abandoned, abused and often times at-risk of shipment to slaughter. Some, not long before, were someone’s beloved pet or worked serving people in different ways – they were loved and then fell through the cracks and ended up in a feed-lot or auction.

Peaceful Acres Horses’ Team and Founder Nanci Beyerl organized the rescue of nearly 300 horses, minis, donkeys and mules. Many have been placed in loving homes and given a new family, or for some they became someone’s loved companion animal for the first time in their lives. To the adopters, we “Thank You!”

We are the forever home to 72 of these incredible animals that for one reason or another were not a good fit for adoption placement. Whether it be that they are living with complications from injury, behavioral difficulties, special needs, retired or senior equines, or they just do not want to live anywhere else! – We are their forever Equine Welfare Sanctuary; their home.

Part of what makes PAH special is that we are home to some rough-around-the-edges, some special needs, senior and authentically imperfect horses. Our group of Program and Buddy equines are excellent at what they do, and they love it too! Their intuitive nature, gentle spirit, wisdom and majestic demeanor make them ideal for helping people in Equine-Guided Emotionally Supportive Programs and Equine-Led Leadership Experiences offered at Peaceful Acres. We love that the rescues get to have a new purpose and “career” here with us. Please consider becoming a monthly Sponsor to a rescue today and email us to schedule your discovery call to learn more about registering for a program.

Remembering the Giants

Pictured - the Gentle Giants - an incredible and dearly missed group of rescued draft horses.

Keeping our promises to care for and love the rescues here until their last days means that we say a lot of “Hellos” as we meet new spectacular people and equines over the many years since the founding of Peaceful Acres Horses, but it also means that we are very familiar with difficult “Goodbyes”. We don’t know how long we will have to share this life with others, so let’s make the most of it, cherish our days and leave a positive impact on those around us.
