Red Bell Run Home to The Sanctuary at Red Bell Run, a Special Needs Equine Sanctuary. They come here in need. We fulfill as many of those needs as we can.

The Sanctuary at Red Bell Run is home to special needs equines, those with medical or behavioral issues that make them unadoptable. Many times our residents are able to have a good quality of life with managed care; care that other organizations may not be able to provide due to staffing or financial restrictions. We strive to give each horse, mule, or donkey we care for the things that they lacked before coming to Red Bell Run. We do a lot of things here but at the Sanctuary, the most important thing we do is simply love them. OUR MISSION:
To rescue abused, neglected or at risk equines and other animals, offering rehabilitation and permanent placement including lifelong sanctuary. Foster the animal-human bond through empathy building, community assistance, educational and therapeutic programs.

One of the perks of night check? Catching sweet moments like this with our mustang, Zaquita. ❤️

Did you know horses only need a small amount of deep sleep each day, and they must lie down to get it? As prey animals, horses are naturally vulnerable when resting on the ground, so they are more likely to lie down when they feel safe and secure in their surroundings.

Seeing Zaquita resting so peacefully is a beautiful reminder of what sanctuary is all about- a place where horses can finally let their guard down. ❤️
