Sparks, a 27-year-old stallion, endured years of neglect and loneliness before his rescue. His owner had left him to suffer in a tiny yard with no care or attention and very little in the way of feed. He was starving, lonely and depressed. But, even with all the pain and suffering Sparks had endured, we still saw a spark in his eyes, he wanted to live. Thanks to your support, we were able to rescue Sparks from his horrific existence. He now lives at the sanctuary, receiving all the care he needs – medical attention, nourishing feed and regular visits from the farrier and dentist. Sparks has begun to put on weight and his coat now shines. His sadness has lifted.

Sparks shares a spacious paddock with friends where he lives out his days enjoying the freedom, care and companionship he missed out on for so many years.

Update: Sparks has passed away. He left this world the way he would have wanted. Happy one minute, gone the next. See you Sparks. You are loved by many.

Rescue date: August 2022
