Ricky’s Ranch: A Safe Haven for Senior Horses & Rescued Mustangs – But We Need Your Help!

Nestled in the heart of Okeechobee County, FL, Ricky’s Ranch Senior Horse Sanctuary is dedicated to providing a safe, loving refuge for senior horses and rescued mustangs who have nowhere else to go. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we rely on the generosity of kindhearted people who believe that these animals deserve to live out their golden years with dignity, care, and love.

Our Growing Herd & Growing Needs

Our sanctuary is currently home to six senior horses and four wild mustangs. Due to space limitations, three of our seniors are being fostered by wonderful neighbors who have stepped up to help. Every horse in our care has a unique story, but they all share one thing in common—they have found safety and love at Ricky’s Ranch.

However, as we grow, so do our challenges.

  • Our fences are breaking down due to age, and several main barn support posts need replacing.
  • Our two-stall barn needs to be converted into a four-stall barn to accommodate our residents.
  • Our pastures flood during the rainy season, turning into deep mud that makes it difficult for the horses to move around safely. Even a small rain shower can cause dangerous conditions. We urgently need clean fill, gravel, and proper drainage installed to prevent this from happening year after year.
  • We always need hay, feed, farrier care, and veterinary services to keep our herd healthy and happy.

How You Can Help

We are doing everything we can with the support of a few incredible donors, but we truly need more people to step in and help. Even a small recurring donation of $20 a month would make a significant impact in keeping these horses fed, cared for, and safe.

If you can help, please consider donating, sponsoring a horse, or spreading the word about our mission. Every dollar and every share makes a difference.
