Picture this: a sprawling 20-acre sanctuary in Corvallis, where the gentle giants of the horse world find hope and healing.

That's what you can witness every day in Corvallis, Montana, at the 20-acre 1 Horse at a Time Draft Horse Rescue facility. And it's time once again to meet and greet these magnificent creatures.

THE MISSION STATEMENT

As 1 Horse at a Time likes to say, "Saving one horse may not change the world ... but it will surely change the world for that one horse!"

One Horse at a Time is a non-profit organization dedicated to draft horses. They work tirelessly to save unwanted, neglected and abused draft horses from going to slaughter. The more they can intercept at auctions, the more draft horses are kept from entering the slaughter pipeline.

1 Horse at a Time founder, Jasmin Shinn, moved to the Bitterroot Valley in 2014 with her husband, a 26 year Army Veteran, and two children. Having grown up with horses, it was Jasmin's dream to live on a farm and own horses. While her heart beats for all horses, draft horses are her passion. Jasmin did a lot of research before starting a rescue and particularly a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. 1 Horse At A Time Draft Horse Rescue was established in 2017.
