Sponsor rescue horses and other animals

Some of the rescue horses and animals living at our Animal Sanctuaries are unsuitable for rehoming because of their age, medical or behavioural problems. An ideal way to care for an animal is to sponsor them, even if you can't have one yourself. You can send your sponsored animals special treats and gifts and you can even visit the animals which are at our Church Knowle sanctuary.

By sponsoring animals you can take an interest in the welfare of an individual animal and contribute towards their quality of life. In return you will not only receive regular news from them in the form of newsletters, updates, a certificate in your name but also great appreciation from all at Margaret Green Animal Rescue.

Our resident animals result in considerable expenditure on vet bills and food costs, typically in excess of £500 per year for each rescue horse and animal. Animal sponsorship in the form of a donation assists us in providing for these animals which would otherwise be without a home and a donation of £4 per month (less than £1 per week) or more helps to ensure we can properly care for our residents. In return for your voluntary commitment, we will send you a sponsorship certificate including a colour photograph and details of your chosen animal.

Please take a look below at all the rescue horses and other animals including shetland ponies, pigs, sheep, goats and donkeys that require sponsorship. If you are interested in sponsoring other animals please choose a group of animals from the links above to see all our animals available for sponsorship. We also have rabbits, dogs and cats that require sponsoring.

  Harvey I - is a 10 year old grey Irish Draught X thoroughbred.  Harvey had a difficult start in life so needs a very special home with an experienced handler who has lots of time and patience.  Sadly he can only be rehomed as a companion due to an old stifle injury. At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.
 

 

 
   
  Jerry - is a chestnut colt who was born on site after his mother was brought in expecting a foal. His mum, Ebony, has since been rehomed to a lovely yard with plenty of friends. Jerry (named after our founder, the late Jerry Green) is enjoying his early training, he has his feet trimmed regularly and has even been given a horse box! He will continue his training and be backed at the Sanctuary before being rehomed. We hope he will make a lovely riding pony in the future. At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.
 

 

 
 
 
 
   
 

Thelma (born 2008) is a miniature Kune Kune pig and entered the sanctuary in 2009 having been found abandoned.  Wilf (born 2009) is a special breed of pig - a Pennywell - which is bred in Devon for their tiny size. He was originally kept as a house-pig and brought into the sanctuary in early 2010.  He and Thelma have become good chums and love to play and bathe in the wallow. They love a back scratch and a tickle and will chat to you in their own language. At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.

 

 

 
   
  Angel - 24 yrs, 15hh2, Thoroughbred x New Forest. Angel was found abandoned on the side of the road and came to the Sanctuary as a 2 yr old. She is now very well cared for, is kind and gentle, and just loves company (apart from the vet, especially having her teeth done). At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.
 

 

 
   
  Sally and Molly are two very friendly female Saanen goats. They were brought into the Sanctuary after their elderly owner could no longer cycle the three-mile round trip to care for them twice daily - although he still visits them regularly and always brings a bag of food! Molly loves having a fuss made of her and enjoys a back scratch, while Sally prefers to relax in her shelter and munch on hay. they are available for sponsorship as a pair and will have a home at the Sanctuary for the rest of their lives. At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.
 


 
   
 

Juan was born in 1981.  He is a lovely chap and having recently lost his companion Amie he is getting extra cuddles from the staff!   He has a treat ball which keeps him occupied as he loves eating the pony nuts and he enjoys his walks around the sanctuary meeting the public.  He has become a firm favourite with our visitors. At Church Knowle, Dorset, please contact 01929 480474.
