Horses

webassets/boyz1.jpg
Our job begins when a horse is seized, surrendered or found abandoned. The horse is taken to our intake facility and is given immediate medical attention. He or she is housed by us and cared for until the horse is both physically and emotionally prepared for a permanent family. Once horses that have been rescued are fully physically and emotionally recovered, we offer them for adoption into suitable homes. NOTE: Although we do not have the resources to provide a retirement home situation for unwanted or elderly horses, we are happy to help owners toward successful placement of these animals.

To browse the horses that are ready for adoption, view the photos below, and click to see a large photo and more information for each horse. We do not offer horses cost-free, but we try to offer an adoption fee that is as low as possible, usually $400 - $1000.  The adoption fee varies, depending upon the characteristics of a given horse, such as breed, age, training, and soundness.  Some horses come to us already trained in activities such as reining or trail riding.  Other come to us with no training at all.   We spend time with each horse to try and assess each horse's abilities and temperament before offering him or her for adoption. Because we do not know the background of many of these animals we cannot make any guarantees and can only give you the best information we have. Many may need additional training.  This can add additional cost to a rescue horse, but will be well worth the investment in the long run.
