And today we move on as Silver and Whiskey arrive at the new ranch in the Santa Ynez valley after a trailer ride with lots of rest stops from Oregon. This actually was a couple of days ago but I didn’t have time to get this up yet. Whiskey was an owner relinquishment, much loved by his owner but he definitely didn’t want to be trained and had issues bolting under saddle and went through several trainers before coming to Skydog. He was a #givingtuesday save in 2022. And we all know Silver 🤍 Both

It’s a special time of the year at Skydog Ranch and Sanctuary ❤️ Yesterday we opened the gate to the sheep’s rock area, a stunning pine forest that climbs up to five thousand feet, where moss covers the old growth and native bunch grasses abound. The horses have been waiting and they know this land well. It’s steep and rugged but they navigate it like it’s home and are so sure footed it’s breathtaking. The trails they make to get around this area are worn into the hillside and they follow them i

A bevy of babies born at Skydog brings us to the most asked question in comments. “Do you geld the stallions or let them breed?” All the stallions when rounded up by the BLM are gelded and we very rarely come across any Mustang stallions. There have been two - Raven and Bear who was rescued from a kill pen with Goldie and Aerial. He was gelded in quarantine before he travelled to us but his mares both had the first two babies at Skydog a few months later as they had already been exposed to him.

The first family of Skydog looking incredible today 🧡🖤 It was amazing to sit down and have Ember walk towards me like this and she totally made my morning. Then Bodhi came over and I was sitting surrounded by this stunning curly mustang family who really informed so much of why we fight so hard to bring families back together again when we can. And patriarch Goliath hung back but is looking great going into winter now. There was frost on my vehicle this morning and there’s snow on the higher e

This is another video of Flash and Midnight when they met the herd this week and they went on one of the most beautiful wild runs I’ve ever seen. The beauty for me was in the simple fact that the majority of mares in Cruiser’s herd were saved from slaughter, pulled from kill pens right before they were going to be killed. Wild horses rounded up from OUR public lands landing in these terrible places without hope. Many of them like Eden and Wildflower were almost crippled from lack of hoof care, E

Glorious mornings at Skydog Oregon. Frost on the ground and a sprinkling of snow up high with the sun shining. Does it get any better than this. And walking up the road for breakfast is Ladybug and her son Firefly, with Maple and Sedona. It is the norm that mothers stay with their babies, pretty much forever at Skydog when left to do so. That’s their choice and it’s something to remember. Yes in nature bands kick out the boys and stallions steal the fillies and that’s nature preventing in-breedi

After all the running wild horses lately it’s so lovely to get out and give scratches to some of the more tame mustangs at Skydog. Wilson was rescued from a kill pen and named for Scott @photoadvocacy to say thank you for all the incredible photos he’s taken of our horses and donated to sanctuary. He’s an extraordinary advocate and photographer and the wild ones are so lucky to have him in their corner. Wilson is truly the sweetest boy and I’m so happy we saved him.

Skydog Sanctuary on Instagram: "And today just as the sun set, four of our wildest boys were the first set of horses to come in for winter, as we start the mammoth task of bringing the herds who have been out on the lower ranch and behind sheep’s rock closer to home. We keep a close eye on them during the cold season and start supplementing their feed to keep them warm and happy. It’s a long process and takes a lot of patience and time getting some of them through the gates, using large catch pe

And just like that Flash found his place and his peace. And just writing these words makes me tearful. Sometimes quickly, sometimes slowly but it’s all in their time as long as we get there in the end ❤️ When we started Skydog we focused on the physical and getting them back to good weight and health when we rescued horses. But over time we realised that wasn’t the end and that we had to strive harder to help get them back to a place and state of mind, where they got back the rest of what had be

Spring Valley boys enjoying the end of summer 💚 I love that they get to choose how wild they want to stay or to come close and get some scratches. Koa came to us slate grey and traumatized by his adopter and I’m so grateful for the lady who took him away from his trainer and let him decompress from the horrifying training he endured. And now he gets to be friendly and interact with people with nothing asked of him. He’s a good boy and so is beautiful Bo, of Maestro he’s a gorgeous curly mustang

Oh Constance 🥹 Here is one of our three most recent saves 🤎 now sporting a fashionable neon green fly mask to keep her delicate eyes safe and covered. She is the most darling mare and so kind and trusting and LOVES her food ❤️💜 She is already gaining weight and confidence and is starting to look a lot better. I am puzzled by her short tail and wonder if anyone has any answers as to why she would have it chopped off so short and it seems almost shaved to the bone. She’s so tiny so I can’t imag

We do love to focus on our babies on Sunday. We have no stallions at Skydog and all of them are gelded by the BLM when rounded up from the wild before adoption. Gelding older stallions is no small thing are there are tons of risks involved and some don’t survive. But we do have babies at Skydog born to mares we rescued who were already pregnant in the wild or who got pregnant in the slaughter pipeline as awful people breed them to make them weigh more for slaughter as they’re sold by the pound,

Beautiful mornings at Skydog 🌸 Here is gorgeous Sierra, who is now living free with Biue Zeus’s herd. She’s a gorgeous dun mare we rescued with Snow and Cheyenne from a kill pen. All three mares were said to be pregnant but in the end only two had babies and one mare rejected her baby mule and she was taken on by Priscilla who now calls that baby her own. The absolute kindness and generosity these horses show and their extreme emotional intelligence is beautiful. Sierra was the wildest of the t

Seniors Saturday ❤️♥️ Just got up to Oregon and came out to see these beautiful oldies but goodies. Handsome Beau the Clydesdale with his ladies Cotton and Amelia having breakfast under the trees. And then over to see Mr Parker, who now has a new part time job, babysitting Blossom for lovely Lacey. Mr Parker is so special and he immediately recognized the sound of a crunching cookie and came to say hello. He’s such a peaceful, quiet and happy boy, as long as he has a full hay tub in front of him

What a truly fabulous visit we had today with Ron and Kenneth from Oscar’s Place who came to Skydog to talk all things wild donkeys. We love and admire these guys for going above and beyond for the donkeys they rescue and to never stop learning more about donkey life. We are so excited that they are acquiring more land for more donkeys to live wild and it was an absolute joy and privilege to share all we know with such an amazing organization. There are so many donkeys in need and we love workin

A herd we don’t visit as much with but which contains some of our favorite horses, including a lot of babies born and raised at skydog. But obviously not conceived here as we don’t breed. Orphaned foals, babies dumped in the slaughter pipeline and babies born or pregnant mares we rescued all call this land home now. Lady Jade is a South Steens Queen who was born at the corrals after her mother was rounded up. She’s a silver dapple pinto and strikingly beautiful. The four orphan foals we adopted

A monumental day at the new ranch in Santa Ynez yesterday 😀❤️ If you’re on Patreon you will have seen them both arriving back at the hospital to have their legs recast, as they went a little backwards up in Oregon. After a lifetime of tucking their club feet underneath them facing backwards, it’s tough to suddenly have the new sensation but it’s a minor setback. And now that they’ve had extra handling and training they are ready for this next stage. And it makes them the very first arrivals at

And back with the first of many glorious videos and updates for you. Janelle and I went out as soon as I got back and how incredible was this to see. It was actually really profound today as I drove out to the ranch and it was rainy and very thick fog which was hard to see far in. Then as I came around the bend to the ranch I couldn’t believe it, as there was sheeps rock in glorious sunshine with blue skies above. Driving up the road seeing beautiful horses enjoying the bright light was a sight

This is the breathtaking beauty of all that is Skydog and as the year draws to a close I wanted to recap all the good you helped us do in 2024. But looking at Apollo and his band we also look forward to all the saves of this year decompressing and finding themselves in 2025, just as these wild boys have done. Look at how high they hold their heads in pride and majesty for who they are again now. Juxtapose that with how they looked when they arrived and that’s the true gift. In 2024 we saved 17 k
