What you may not know about horses

Watch the film

Horses are at the heart of Pegasus.

Our story began with saving horses from slaughter, and to this day many of our residents are horses who survived neglect, fear, injury, abandonment or human use without care.

But how well do we really understand them?

A horse is not a machine.
Not a sport object.
Not a decoration.
Not a tool for human ambition.

A horse is a sensitive, social and highly perceptive being. Horses remember, communicate, form bonds, feel stress, need space, safety, movement, companionship and choice.

Many horses who come to Pegasus need more than food and medical care. They need time to trust again. They need people who do not rush them, do not demand, do not force closeness.

They need to be allowed to be horses.

This film invites you to look at horses differently — not through what they can do for us, but through who they are.

Watch it, and then look around Pegasus with new eyes.

A Little Good

With 5 €, we can buy fresh carrots, apples or other small additions to the animals’ daily food.

For rescued animals, these are more than treats. They are part of everyday care — a kind moment, a full mouth, a little comfort and a reminder that life can be gentle now.

A Clean Place to Rest

With 10 €, we can help provide bedding, cleaning supplies or basic materials needed to keep a stall, kennel or resting place clean, dry and safe.

For animals who once lacked even basic care, a clean place to rest means peace, dignity and security.

A Bag of Feed

With 20 €, we can buy a bag of feed, chaff, beet pulp or basic supplements for animals who need special nutrition after illness, hunger, neglect or old age.

Good food is not just food. It is recovery, strength and a chance to feel safe in the body again.

Real Help

With 50 €, we can buy specialist feed, hoof care products, dressings, medicine or cover part of a veterinary visit.

For many rescued animals, healing is made of small acts of care repeated every day — feeding, cleaning, treating, checking, waiting and staying close.

A Part of Their Month

With 100 €, you make a meaningful contribution to the monthly care of one rescued animal.

Your donation helps us buy feed, hay, bedding, supplements or basic medicine — the things animals need every day, no matter what else is happening around us.

Rescue is not only an emergency. It is also the quiet work that continues month after month.

A Month of Safety

With 250 €, you can help cover around one month of basic care for one rescued animal.

That means food, hay, bedding, basic supplements, medicine and daily maintenance — a month of safety for someone who may once have lived without even the minimum of care.

This is a powerful gift. It gives us time, stability and the ability to plan care with more peace.

Your Gift, Your Impact

Choose your own donation amount and help us care for the rescued animals of Pegasus.

Every donation — small or large — helps us provide food, shelter, medical care, bedding, supplements and daily attention for the animals who live here.

Your gift becomes part of this home.
