The Best Little Horse House in Hastings, Inc.

501(c)3 Non Profit Organization

The Best Little Horse House in Hastings, Inc. is a 501(C)3 Non Profit Organization. We incorporated with the State of Nebraska in January of 2007. Our family created The Best Little Horse House because we saw a need for equine advocates. The State of Nebraska has no equine humane society or shelter, and few laws protect equines in this State. Therefore, we operate our family focused horse shelter, a haven for horses to go and be adopted out to new homes when they have no other options in the situation that they were in prior to coming to us. As we are proudly a very small operation, we cannot provide sanctuary for horses for a lifetime. However, we do have a network connection to other equine advocates that may be able to help out in a situation like that, and in those cases we will offer a layover for a horse that needs a place to go temporarily prior to moving on to another equine advocate.

Our work has essentially remained the same over the past year, but we have shifted our focus and the way that we view our organization due to exposure to people and situations over the past year that should not be a part of horse welfare. We are not affiliated with any "horse rescue" in the State of Nebraska. However, we will work selectively with various efforts and groups of equine advocates where those involved are reputable, honest, trustworthy, and share the same goals that we do, without having to deal with all of the things that go on "behind the scenes" that have no place where horse welfare is concerned. We regularly work with Jason and Anissa Meduna of 3-Strikes Ranch in Alliance, Nebraska, and various other trainers and associates.

Our operation is funded largely by income from our full time employment statuses, which we believe is essential to the horse shelter operation, as well as donations from people that believe in the way that we operate and the work that we do for the horses that we help. If you would like to sponsor a horse, visit a horse, or help out at the shelter, please contact us so that arrangements can be made. We do have an adoption contract and reference checks process prior to an adoption being approved.
