Our Story
Chester and Push being greeted by Sharon and Mark the day they arrived, June 2018.
Chester & Push Horse Rescue was inspired by two senior horses in search of a forever home. They had lost their owner and his final wish was to find them a home where they could live out their golden years together. Our organization is dedicated to rescuing and providing a safe haven for horses in need. We believe in giving these majestic animals a second chance at life and ensuring they receive the care and love they deserve. Our team is committed to making a difference in the lives of these beautiful creatures, and we invite you to join us on this meaningful journey.
As a registered charitable 501 (c)(3) Chester & Push Horse Rescue is dedicated to rescuing orphaned, neglected, abused or slaughter bound horses providing them a safe loving environment for them to thrive.
Chester and Push, a pair of bonded best friends, on the day they arrived at the rescue. They were orphaned and on this day we would like to think the white “sparkler” on the right is Jeff making sure that these beautiful horses will be taken care of for as long as they live. We feel Jeff’s spirit everyday.
Our Mission
At Chester & Push Horse Rescue, our philosophy is rooted in compassion, integrity, and advocacy for horse welfare. We strive to educate the community about responsible horse ownership and promote the humane treatment of horses. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome horses, as well as to provide sanctuary for many that are elderly, blind, and have been through so much. Our equine therapy programs cover mental health issues such as anxiety and depression for people of all ages.
These beautiful souls have helped tremendously, including children and adults with disabilities such as Down syndrome, autism, and brain injury. Our horses also help to improve the quality of life through equine therapy for people with anxiety and depression.
