Cheyenne was part of a large herd of Saddlebreds that were seized by Cabarrus county law enforcement in
1999. It was one of the worst cases ever seen by the county. Scores of horses died under deplorable conditions
and their owner was convicted of abuse.
Cheyenne and her pasture mate, Sophie, went to a home in the mountains where they lived for many years and
under went rehabilitation and received the most basic of training. Unfortunately, their new family was not able to keep
both horses and they eventually arrived at the HPS sanctuary.
Sophie quickly found a new home but Cheyenne has not been so lucky.
