California Coastal Horse Rescue

A 501(c)3 non-profit organization; the Mission of CCHR is to rescue abandoned, abused, neglected and slaughter-bound horses and to provide them with a second chance for healthy and productive lives. CCHR horses have been rescued from a wide range of serious situations including: abandonment, neglect and potential slaughter. CCHR also rescues horses whose owners can no longer afford to care for them. CCHR provides shelter, food, veterinary care, farrier services, rehabilitation and adoption services for the horses in its care. It also offers long-term sanctuary to disabled and elderly horses. With a combination of specialized care and loving support, all horses rescued by CCHR are given the opportunity to heal, thrive and to lead happy and peaceful lives.

We match horses and potential adopters on the basis of the adopter's horsemanship and riding experience levels, horse temperament, horse level of training and relationship between horse and potential adopter. Fees vary. Adoption contract required.
