Fancy and Annie

Cimmaron Sanctuary takes in horses who need a home and a purpose, many of whom are referred to as "rescue horses."   Sometimes we adopt a horse until he or she can be placed in a permanent home, and other times we provide a lifelong home in the Sanctuary.

While the horses are with us, we bring kids of all ages into the barn to interact with the horses.  What happens is magical and results in personal transformation for both the horses and the humans - a beautiful handshake across both sides of the fence.

Cimmaron Sanctuary is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization.  All donations made to Cimmaron Sanctuary are tax-deductible.  Our fiscal sponsor is PAKT Foundation, and the IRS Tax Exempt number is #20-1580535 for your donations.

We offer a variety of services, all of which teach and/or support developing excellence in horsemanship:

learning responsible, considerate, respectful and sensitive care for the horses - we call this conscious horsemanship; 

communicating with the horses who are our partners in life, our teachers and our healers; 

developing expert riding skills so both horse and rider enjoy the experience.

For those humans considered autistic, Cimmaron Sanctuary offers experiencial services, new modalities, and profound understanding and communication from the horses' and donkey's point of view.

Our professional instructors are also available to start young horses off on the right foot/hoof, correct undesirable behavior, and/or bring out the positive competitor in a horse with performance aptitude.  The purpose is to facilitate the horse enjoying life as a full, eager participant, relaxed and positive.
