At The Sanctuary at Lakota Farms, we are committed to providing a second chance to horses that have suffered neglect, abuse, and mistreatment. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and rehome these animals, providing them with the care and attention they need to recover and thrive. For those horses that are unable to be rehomed due to ongoing medical issues or age, we offer a safe haven where they can live out their lives with dignity, respect, and love.
In addition to our rescue efforts, we also believe in the power of education and outreach. We strive to raise awareness about the plight of horses and the importance of their well-being. We want to inspire compassion and advocacy in our community, promoting a better understanding of these magnificent animals and their needs. By promoting the bond between horses and humans, we hope to foster a greater appreciation for the value these animals bring to our lives.
We recognize that our mission is only possible through the support of our community. We rely on the dedication of our volunteers, the generosity of our donors, and the commitment of our staff to make a difference in the lives of these animals. Together, we can create a world where horses are treated with the care and respect they deserve. We believe that every horse deserves a happy, healthy life, and we will continue to work tirelessly until that vision becomes a reality.

Alysha Satsuki Girard gained her angel wings on May 7, 2022. Alysha was born on May 20, 1995, in Altamonte Springs, FL. She has lived in Tallahassee for the past 9 years. Alysha was known by those that loved her and knew her best as a kind, caring, generous and loving soul. Alysha was such a sweetheart; all of her family and friends adored her spirit. Some of her passions are a love for Horses, Dogs, Jeeping, Sunsets, Plants, and being with her friends. Alysha always had a way to make others feel warm, welcome, and loved. Alysha’s departure from this world leaves an enormous hole in the heart of the those she touched in her life. Alysha was always entertaining everyone with her charismatic stories and fun-loving personality, she was the life of the party. Alysha graduated from Winter Springs High School in 2013 and continued to follow her big sister Natasha to Tallahassee where she blossomed into a confident beautiful, loving strong woman that God intended her to be. Alysha is survived by her loving parents, Dax and Kayoko Girard, her best friend and sister Natasha Girard, her paternal grandmother Marion Stewart, maternal grandmother Kinue Sake, aunts, uncles and cousins in both NY and Japan.
