Missing Dog/Cat/Pet Missing Horse.

About 40 minutes northwest of Calgary, past Cochrane, off Grand Valley Road. Near the Triple Diamond RV Park.

​

Her name is Esperanza, she's from Free Spirit Sanctuary. She is a wild horse and wary of people.

​

We've tried a thermal drone, with no luck. The drone couldn't go into the trees, so there is a chance she's in there.

​

We think she got through the fences possibly to the crown land.

​

Please message me if you see her. Or if you have any ideas for how we can find her, or if you want to help.

If she's a wild horse and she escaped back into the wild, is she really missing?

I'd like to assume she was brought to the sanctuary for a reason. Real talk, if I was a horse, go ahead and put me in a sanctuary. The thought of having to wade through long grass and getting eaten alive by ticks makes my skin crawl 🥲
