Utah’s Only Open-Door Equine Shelter

Lazy B Equine Rescue & Sanctuary is Utah’s only open-door equine shelter, meaning we take in any horse, in any condition, no matter their age, health, or history. With the current economy forcing more owners to surrender their horses, the number of neglected and abandoned equines is at an all-time high. Every day, we receive urgent calls from owners, law enforcement, and community members seeking help, and while we are committed to providing a safe haven, the overwhelming demand exceeds our resources. We can’t do it alone.                                                       

You can make a difference! Donate today to help provide feed, medical care, and shelter for horses in need. Share our mission on social media to help us reach more people. Subscribe to our YouTube channel to see the impact of our work firsthand. Check out our Amazon Wish List for much-needed supplies. Volunteer your time and become part of our rescue family. Every action, big or small, helps us continue saving lives—join us today!

Full Circle of Life Horse Shelter

Lazy B is a Full Circle of Life Horse Shelter which helps horses in every stage of life regardless of their age, behavior, training, or medical problems. We strongly believe that compassion for all horses, no matter what stage of life they are in, is extremely important. We help ALL horses!

Equine Lessons and Education

Through humane education and awareness we shape the next generations of horse owners and rescuers.

We Accept Owner Surrenders

If you or someone you know is in need for a secure place for your horses please contact us. We do not discriminate or shame anyone who comes forward. Surrendering your horse is always a good thing.

Fiona's Story

Fiona was surrendered to our open door equine shelter and we believe there is high probability she is a Przewalski horse. She along with thousands of other equines fall into the slaughter pipeline. Witness the resilience of these majestic creatures and support our cause to provide them with a second chance at life and freedom.
