Meet Sparkle
Meet Sparkle
Sparkle came to Equine Energy needing time, care, and a safe place to land. With consistent nutrition, veterinary and dental care, companionship, and peaceful sanctuary life, she has come a long way.
Sparkle now needs urgent dental care to help prevent another choking episode and protect her ability to eat safely. This care is essential to her health and could become life-threatening if left untreated. Donations toward Sparkle's dental care will help cover the cost of the procedure and her ongoing sanctuary care.
Support Our Work
Your donation helps us provide hay, veterinary and farrier care, shelter, feed, and daily care for the rescued animals who call Equine Energy home. Your support also helps us provide peaceful, non-mounted connection experiences for our community.
Equine Energy is a peaceful animal sanctuary where rescued horses, Bernese Mountain Dogs, and meaningful connection come together. We welcome veterans, people with disabilities, families, and community members for calm, non-mounted experiences with animals and nature.
What We Do
At Equine Energy, we provide peaceful, non-mounted experiences with our sanctuary horses and dogs for veterans, children, adults, families, and community members.
Experiences may include:
Groundwork and gentle horse interaction
Grooming and quiet time with the horses
Nature walks and peaceful time outdoors
Our goal is to create a welcoming place where people can slow down, connect with animals, and enjoy meaningful time in a calm sanctuary environment.

Meet Lucky
Meet Lucky
Lucky came to Equine Energy from Versailles, Kentucky. When his owner's dementia made it impossible to continue caring for the horses, the family made the difficult decision to rehome Lucky (registered as Late Nite's What an Impact) and his stablemates.
During the rehoming process, the stable helping arrange his placement didn't know what he had been called before. Wanting him to have a special name for his new chapter, we asked our social media friends for suggestions.
We loved all the ideas, but after spending time with him, he simply became Lucky.
Around the sanctuary, we sometimes call him Sir Lucky, the Southern gentleman from Versailles, and we're grateful he found his way to Equine Energy.
Today, Lucky enjoys quiet days, gentle companionship, and a peaceful retirement at Equine Energy.

These experiences can create meaningful moments of trust, connection, and companionship for the people and animals who share them. At Equine Energy, we value the quiet, everyday interactions that make sanctuary life feel welcoming and special.
Current Goals
Current Goals
Equine Energy is exploring ways to improve our sanctuary so it can better serve both our animals and our community.
Future plans may include an accessible restroom, a small gathering space, improved pathways and visitor access, and other improvements that make the sanctuary safer and more comfortable for everyone who visits.
As a grassroots nonprofit, we are working toward these improvements step-by-step through grants, community partnerships, and local support.

Meet Our Sanctuary Herd
Meet Our Sanctuary Herd
Each of our horses has a story—and a path that brought them to Equine Energy. Some came to us through rescue or rehoming, while others needed a safe, permanent place to call home.
Today, our horses enjoy individualized care, companionship, and peaceful interaction with the people who visit our sanctuary. Their different pesonalities make every visit unique.
Our Bernese Mountain Dogs are also part of daily sanctuary life, bringing their own gentle personalities and plenty of companionship.
Our Approach
Our Approach
Our approach is grounded in calm, respectful, non-mounted interaction. We create opportunities for people to slow down, spend time with the animals, and connect with the natural environment at their own pace.
Our Team
Our Team
Equine Energy was co-founded by Dr. Christina Sunday Wagner and her sister, Laura Hammerlund--two lifelong horsewomen with a shared passion for horses, animal care, and meaningful connection. Christina is a retired doctor of chiropractic and certified acupuncturist, and Laura is the widow of a U.S. Navy veteran and a former attorney. Together, they bring decades of lived experience and professional care to this work.
Our team also includes dedicated volunteers, our sanctuary horses, and our gentle Bernese Mountain Dogs, who are part of the peaceful, welcoming environment at Equine Energy.
Peaceful, Non-Mounted Connection
At Equine Energy, veterans, people with disabilities, individuals living with PTSD, families, and other community members can spend peaceful time with our sanctuary animals. Our non-mounted experiences may include grooming, walking beside a horse, groundwork, observation, or simply sitting quietly nearby in a calm, welcoming environment.
