Horse Sponsorship

Hello my name is Brooke and I am a 12 year old Thoroughbred mare. I was at the racetrack for a short time until I severely injured one of my front tendons. I am very sweet and get very excited at meal times. Before my food arrives I love to run around squeaking.

This is Lenny , a 6 year old Appaloosa gelding. Lenny was born at our ranch after we rescued his mother while she was pregnant. Lenny has a few tendon issues with his front legs and he is taking life easy in a large paddock with his best friend where he can move at his own comfortable pace. Lenny loves playing with horse toys, food buckets and anything else that he can throw around.

Amber is in her mid teens Appendix mare who came to Castleton Ranch after injuring the ligaments on her front legs. Amber shares a paddock with her friend Poppy who is also recovering from an injury. Amber is a very sweet horse whio will let you groom her all day if you have the energy. I hope we can find a sponsor for Amber.

Hello my name is Thorin and I am in my late teens Arabian. I have been at Castleton Ranch for 8 years now. As a young horse I fractured one of my knee’s and it did not set properly. I was sent to an auction where I was rescued by Castleton Ranch. I have a very nice life here and I hope that I can find a sponsor. I am very cute and can supply some very hadsome pictures.

Rodney is in his late teens Thoroughbred who came to Castleton Ranch from the racetrack. Rodney sustained a very severe bowed tendon during a race. Although he bowed the tendon someway before the finish line, he kept racing and almost won. He is a very brave horse because he must have been experiencing much pain. Rodney is permanently retired at Castleton Ranch and has a very happy life with his friends. We hope that we can find a sponsor for this brave fellow.

Hello my name is Teddy Bear. I was rescued by Castleton Ranch from an auction. The person who was trying to sell me said that I was a 6 year old quarter horse. However the freeze mark on my neck told a different story. Lucky for me Castleton Ranch were at the auction and knew something was not right. They made sure that they purchased me. After getting me back safely to the ranch, Castleton set about to try and discover who I actually was. After some time they did. I was not a 6 year lod quarter horse everyone had been told but I was a 10 year old Standard Bred pacer who had been racing in Canada. I had been sold to someone on New York, then to someone in California and then I was sent to an auction. After examination by a vet, it was discovered that I had been winded and could not breath properly when moving faster than a walk. I have now been at Castleton for 10 years and enjoy my life here very much with my best friend Elliot.

Teddy Bear is sponsored by Noelle Jones Allen. Thank you somuch Noelle. Your support is greatly appreciated.

This is Trudy in her mid teens Thoroughbred mare. Trudy came to Castleton Ranch from the racetrack after she badly injured a fetlock joint. Although the joint has healed sufficiently for her to roam around her paddock, our vet has said that she can never take the weight of a rider and should be retired, which she happily is. Trudy is a very sweet mare indeed and we hope that she can find a sponsor.

This is Simon, in his late teens Thoroughbred gelding. Simon had a very traumatic beginning to his life when only one hour old, he was viciously attacked by his mother who almost killed him. Although a mother attacking her baby is very rare, Simon did suffer deep wounds which severed muscles in his neck and stomach. He had to be seperated from his mom immediately. Simon was not expected to survive, but he did. Simon was one of the the horses which we rescued just in time from the hands of the killer buyers from the farm which closed down. Today Simon enjoys his life quietly in a paddock with his friends. He is a special horse and we are honored to have him at our sanctuary.

Danielle is in her early teens Quarter horse mare. Danielle was born with slightly contracted tendons and is a permanent resident at Castleton Ranch. She is a super sweet girl and we hope that she will find a sponsor.
