New Start Standardbred Adoption

About Us

New Start Standardbreds was founded in 2020 to assist in the re-homing of Standardbred harness racing horses across the province of Ontario & Eastern Canada. Our main facility operates out of the Trent Hills area. New Start is 100% volunteer run. We will help place a horse no matter their age, physical limitation or where they are coming from. A large number of horses that we help are coming from less-than-ideal situations (i.e.. auctions) and in need of rehabilitation and care to be back to feeling their best possible selves. We ensure the long-term safety of each horse and we continue to do post-adoption check-ins on a regular basis with all adopters.
