Meet Our Pasture Animals

Angels Acres is home to five beautiful horses, one sweet friendly donkey,  and a highland cow, who freely roam the pastures on the back half of our property.  Three of them live in the main barn, where they each have a stall across from the pig stalls in the larger portion of the barn (the goats are in the other smaller half).  The others have enclosed lean to structures in the middle pasture and far right pastures, which provides additional protection against the harsher winter weather and also has a storage room for hay, and a rain diverter to collect fresh drinking water.


Each of these animals has their own unique story, and you can learn more about them on our sponsorship pages for each animal which are linked below.   All of them have been rescued from situations where they were not able to receive the proper care they needed, and some of them have faced serious abuse in the past. Our volunteers and staff work very hard with each of the animals, but in particular the horses need a lot of one on one time and attention to help rehabilitate them and rebuild their sense of trust with humans.  We are happy to say that all of our horses are very comfortable here at Angel's Acres, and as a result, which you will witness if you are able to come visit us, they are all very friendly and love to have visitors!  


If you are fond of a particular animal here at the sanctuary, or would like to help provide financial care for them, you can sponsor one or more on our sponsorship page below or each horse has an individual link under their name.  They would definitely appreciate your support!  

Give Them The Hope They Need

We are very excited to finally offer the ability for our visitors and supporters to sponsor our animals here at Angels Acres!  By sponsoring, not only are you creating a special connection with that animal, but you are becoming an amazing PARTNER in the work we do here at our sanctuary!  Sponsorships help ensure all of the animals receive the very best care and help us further our mission of rescuing and rehabilitating as many animals as we can.

Meet Our Pasture Animals

Milkshake

My Bio

Milkshake is a highland cow. He has albinism and is blind in both eyes, so he is very shy and relies on his sense of hearing and touch to navigate. Milkshake arrived at Angels Acres in the summer of 2025, and found a forever home of hope, peace, & love.

Loki

My Bio

Loki is a VERY sweet soul! Prior to his arrival at Angels Acres, he was being worked as a live nativity scene donkey, where he was made to stand for up to 6 hours and was whipped when he didn't obey. Even though he has some physical scars, he was able to open his heart back up to humans and other animals once he learned to trust through the love and care of our staff and volunteers here at Angels Acres. Loki is always close by his best friends and pasture mates, Hemi and Daisy.

Daisy (Horse)

My Bio

Daisy the horse is a very sweet girl. She is our oldest horse at 33 years old. Daisy has a condition called sway back, from being overworked earlier in her life. She receives physical therapy every month to help with this and we keep a close eye on her medical needs to ensure she has the best quality and longest life possible. Daisy keeps close to her best friends and pasture mates, Loki the donkey, and Hemi the horse, but she will also gladly greet visitors for treats and attention! Daisy is a wonderful testament to our belief that every animal deserves hope, peace, and love.

Hemi

My Bio

Hemi is a former race horse, who has raced all over the country! When he was no longer useful as a racehorse, he was rescued and brought to Angels Acres where he could live out the rest of his life without having to work or race. Due to being over raced when he was younger, he has some ongoing breathing issues, which we stay on top of and make sure he has the best care. Hemi is a favorite here for many of our volunteers and visitors, and his beautiful soul shines through to everyone he meets.

Cooper

My Bio

Cooper is one of a kind! Not just because of his curious and sometimes feisty personality, but because he was one of the first horses to ever receive a titanium rod in his leg. Cooper was rescued in the nick of time - he was set to be put down after a broken leg, but as luck would have it, an orthopaedic doctor heard about his situation and asked if he could perform the experimental surgery. Cooper's luck held out, as the titanium rod worked well and helped support his weight. Cooper is only about 6-7 years old and still has a lot of spunk, so we are thrilled that his life has been extended by this innovation. He does walk with a limp but is overall doing very well and loves attention and treats. He fits right in and has found his forever home of hope, peace, and love here at Angels Acres.

Sky

My Bio

Sky was once very, very shy, but through the love and dedication of our volunteers, he is now super lovable and has learned to trust humans. He loves to be brushed and petted, and loves greeting visitors. He may have been neglected in his early life, but his transformation is proof of how powerful love can be, and why we believe every animal deserves hope, peace, and love.
