My Girl Scout troop really wanted to spend time volunteering with animals and spent a few hours helping out Saffyre Sanctuary yesterday. They shoveled poop, gave the horses fresh water, hung out with the horses and had a great time! Esta and John were fabulous with the girls! More...

Hello everyone. Bravo to all you angels out there saving these beautiful mage stick creatures. I have been working so hard trying to buy my home and get some horse fencing place. My daughter is 11 years old and has loved horses and riding since she was 2. Every time I see a post for a horse needing a loving home my heart sinks. Through a certain type of home loan, I am trying to get fencing up to save some of these dear creatures who are experiencing more horrors every day. I was wondering if there is any organizations in Arizona that can help me get this fencing up sooner. I have the funds to care for many horses, but I don't have a large sum up front to buy fencing or a horse. It is truly a discrace how much horses suffer at the hands of rotten humans. As a race,we humans owe these horses our lives for all the effort they endured over the ages. We would have gone extinct if it were not for the horse. I would love to adopt numerous horses as well as many who cannot be ridden anymore. I am a disabled vet, and I can no longer ride. So I wanted to adopt many who cannot be ridden. To me, we are in the same boat. I would just love to have the friendship and companionship. I would be honored to adopt and even foster some horses. My daughter is looking forward to taking care of them. I am going to also have a small barn with air conditioning because I feel so bad for horses who sit out in this 120 degree heat. I could never do that to a horse. Hopefully the type of loan we get, will allow me to have a type of horse setup to serve a king. I am an animal spoiler. It's just who I am. If I had a horse now and was unable to spare him from the heat, I would set up one of our bedrooms for him. I don't care. So it would smell a bit, oh well, that's what plug in and febreeze is for. As soon as I am able, consider many saved. I am so excited abut getting horses. So is my daughter. Hope to meet all of you soon..Blessed be More...

I had the most beautiful experience with these horses. I couldn't believe how much I connected with them. I'm so great full they all excepted me and played with me. I even got a back massage by one of them. I think they liked me lol. I can't wait to be back. Felt so much love from them. Thank you Saffyre for allowing me to have this experience! I'm so grateful. Thank you Esta for having me. I have great respect for you and all who help rescue these beautiful horses. More...

Saffyre Sanctuary is a magical place, not only where the horses are being healed, but WE are also being healed. I learn more and more every single time I’m there.
