Our Story

About Us: Spirit & Squirt Horse Rescue

A profound love and respect for horses laid the foundation for Spirit & Squirt Horse Rescue. As enthusiastic supporters of horses, our founders saw the critical need for a Horse Rescue that could offer a safe place for forgotten, manipulated, or dumped horses. Our Horse Sanctuary, named for two of our first rescues, Spirit, a noble horse who went through extreme adversity, and Squirt, a vibrant little horse with a great heart, represents the bravery and determination of these amazing creatures.

With the help of a passionate network of volunteers, sponsors, and equestrian enthusiasts, we have emerged from our modest origins to rank among Texas’s top horse rescue groups. We also provide retired horses with a serene and loving environment for their last years. The principles of compassion and honesty guide our work, and we are committed to making sure the horses in our care are happy.

We assist prospective adopters in finding the ideal match for their horse while offering the animals rehabilitation and care via our Adopt A Horse program. Whether you adopt a new horse friend for your home or donate through Horse Rescue Donations, your assistance enables us to give these magnificent creatures a second shot at life.

non-profit Organization (503C)

As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Spirit & Squirt Horse Rescue is committed to changing the world. We aim to find worthy horses loving homes through rescue, rehabilitation, and placement. Our team of dedicated employees and kind donors propel us forward. We offer a safe home for equines that have experienced cruelty or neglect as one of Texas’ top horse rescues.  Our Horse Rehabilitation Center is dedicated to helping these horses regain their health while providing the required assistance and attention. We aim to bring about a good and long-lasting change in our community with each project and effort. Come along on our mission to conserve horses and discover how working together, we can create a better future.

How it started

Our first rescue began with a simple goal: save one Mustang. However, the result was a Mustang and a Pony. Why? They were bonded, and it was kinder to keep them together—so we did. This experience ignited our passion for Horse Rescue, and since then, we’ve grown into a trusted Horse Sanctuary and Equine Shelter dedicated to providing a haven for needy horses. Today, we proudly offer Rescue Horses for Adoption, ensuring each horse finds a loving home while living free from neglect or abandonment.

Our Horses

Meet the Horses at Spirit & Squirt

Every horse that comes to Spirit & Squirt Horse Rescue has a unique story. Some have been rescued from dire situations, while others have been surrendered by owners who could no longer provide the care they needed. Regardless of their past, each horse receives the individualized care and attention they deserve.

Snookie

Before

Snookie was our third horse as a rescue. She is our 14 year old daughters horse. She is so gentle and calm. She has a sense of who is riding her. The “rider” in this pic is our 5 year old grandson.

After

Dusty

Our 4th horse. She is perfect to ride
when she is led. Stands so quiet being
saddled.

Emaciated Horse Intake

Whiskey

Due to owner circumstances this beautiful boy ended up in front yard with a chainlink fence instead of pasture. He wasn’t happy and the owner knew it. She called us help.
He had to get used to another horse in his space again.

This is why we do this. He has so much love to give and in his new home, he receives all the love and attention he deserves
