Comanche, pictured here in May 2021.

Comanche on arrival - starved nearly to death.

Who doesn't love a good nap?

Meet Comanche!

Our handsome “man of the barn”, 32yo+ stallion Comanche, is such a fighter! He came to us as a severe case of neglect and starvation from the State of Illinois, along with other horses. He was later found to have arthritis and lymphatic cancer, which requires several doses of medication daily. Comanche also gets treatment from an Equine Massage Therapist and Equine Chiropractor (we’re jealous!).


This big guy is full of love and spunk and has touched the hearts of all who know him, including his favorite volunteer, Cheryl! Cheryl personally attends to Comanche and coordinates his care, and we are so grateful they found each other. 

Comanche on his best behavior, being visited by a special needs class from Belleville West High School and Cheryl, his best pal!

Comanche and his pal, Monty, an ex-racehorse!

"I smell ladies!"

Boop!

Comanche being visited by volunteers Pam and Don's bird, Mack! Comanche makes pals with everyone he encounters!

Comanche is so photogenic!
