Irish's story
Irish was donated to CANTER. Sensing the urgency, we picked her up one day after we received the call to "come and get her!". Led out to us with just a rope around her neck, our hearts broke as we looked in silence at the little mare before us...200 pounds underweight, with ribs, hips, and backbone protruding, severely cracked and overgrown hooves, a swollen belly, and infested with lice. She had large scattered areas of missing hair coat, and just stroking her made the dull, remaining hairs come off in our hands. Click here to read more about Irish's story.

CANTER Needs Your Help!
CANTER exists solely on donations. CANTER is an all Volunteer organization, so EVERY dollar donated goes to help the thoroughbreds. CANTER Michigan, alone, has taken in over 100 horses in 2007 and dozens more will be coming our way as the racing season ends. Many of these new horses need immediate surgery, foot care, vaccinations, and lots of food.
CANTER Michigan is the ONLY equine rescue to accept ANY thoroughbred off the track, regardless of medical condition. We have never said “NO”… and don’t want to start now.We need your help NOW!!! Every dollar helps. Please send your donations to the address below:
