Helen the Mustang embodies the raw essence of freedom, a spirit as boundless and untamed as the open plains. With strength woven through her every stride, she invites us to reconnect with our wild hearts, to rise above life’s trials, and to embrace the beauty of running free with purpose. Helen’s journey urges us to hold fast to our true selves, to honor the strength within, and to summon the courage to carve paths as unique as we are—reminding us that our wild nature is our greatest gift.

Helen is another one of our Sand Wash Basin mares born in 2008 and brought to us in 2012. She is a wild girl at heart and never showed any interest in humans or training. We decided life on the sanctuary would be the best place for her, which she enjoys each and every day in the company of the horses she’s grown up with since she was a baby.
