A Heartwarming Surprise: Budweiser Clydesdales & Purina Team Up to Support Far View Horse Rescue
On a crisp Colorado morning, something extraordinary unfolded at Far View Horse Rescue—a moment filled with joy, surprise, and gratitude. With the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales leading the way, Purina delivered an unforgettable gift to the dedicated volunteers and horses at the rescue: two tons of high-quality Purina® feed.
Far View Horse Rescue, nestled in the heart of Colorado, is a sanctuary for horses in need. Run by passionate volunteers, the organization is devoted to rehabilitating abused, neglected, and abandoned horses, helping them heal both physically and emotionally on their journey toward adoption and a forever home.
The surprise was orchestrated with the help of the majestic Budweiser Clydesdales, whose presence alone turned the day into a magical event. As the horses trotted down the drive, pulling a classic red wagon stacked high with bags of Purina® Equine Senior® and Purina® Strategy GX feed, the volunteers’ reactions were nothing short of emotional. Smiles, cheers, and even a few tears of joy rippled through the team.
Many of the horses at Far View are seniors, each with a story and each deserving of a second chance. Senior horses often require specialized nutrition to maintain their health, especially when recovering from neglect. Purina® Equine Senior® is carefully formulated to support aging horses, making it a perfect fit for the rescue’s needs.
This generous donation was made possible through A Home for Every Horse, an initiative that connects rescue organizations with the resources they need to care for horses in transition. Purina, as the title sponsor, provides nutritional support and is committed to ensuring no horse is forgotten. Their ongoing partnership with horse rescues like Far View represents a shared dedication to animal welfare.
“We are overwhelmed with gratitude,” said one Far View volunteer. “This feed will make a huge difference. It’s not just about food—it’s about showing these horses that they’re loved, valued, and have a future.”
The day was filled with connection, celebration, and a renewed sense of hope. For the horses, it meant full bellies and better health. For the volunteers, it meant recognition of their tireless efforts. And for all who witnessed the event, it was a powerful reminder of what compassion can do when people—and animals—come together.
