How we Help
serving our community
We are a team of dedicated volunteers and a cohesive group of people who share a strong passion and admiration for horses and other large animals. We serve members of the community who own or stable large animals and are adversely affected or displaced by fire and other emergency disaster incidents.
Emergency Transport & Shelter
Upon notification of disaster and need for large animal evacuation, our team establishes a mobile command center at a designated site and prepares for the intake and sheltering of large animals. Truck and trailer crews are assembled and deployed to evacuate large animals to the designated sheltering area where they will be cared for by qualified volunteers.
What We Offer
We perform a range of services that benefit Santa Barbara County.
Assistance
We assist owners of equines and large animals in situations of fire and emergency.

Coordination of the evacuation of equines and large animals during a fire or emergency.
