Our Beginning

Lakeview Horse Rescue began with founder Sarah Sander’s love for horses. Sarah has been riding her whole life. Now a certified trainer, Sarah’s renowned riding and training program, Ride with Excellence, focuses on the bio-mechanics of the horse and the science behind riding. The Ride With Excellence program offers riders the tools they need to successfully ride a horse in their chosen discipline or multiple disciplines. With the success of Ride with Excellence, it was only a matter of time before Sarah knew where her heart always was – rescuing horses.

“Do what is right, not what is easy.”

— sarah Sanders, FOUNDER of lakeview horse rescue
