Captain
Captain: Sassy boy Captain is a 20 yr old Arabian! Captain came in with his ears pinned non stop last May. We gave him time to settle in and learn our routine and ask nothing of him for approx. 30 days. We slowly started working with him however he was still not ready. Not only was he threatening with pinning his ears, he started acting on it. He offered to bite and if you tried to pick up his hooves at all, he would try to kick and bite. We decided to give him more time to adjust and learn that he is ok and could trust us. I started working with him again. He round pens great with ears up however as soon as he is on or off lead and you talk to him or ask anything of him, he pins his ears and actually snarls at you. I had to vet out and he said it was fear based. I started slowly working with him, touching him all over first with stick and string slowly everyday then my hands and brushes all over him. Round penning, backing, yielding, moving. I could finally pick up his front hooves however the farrier came and it was def a big no. We will continue to slowly work with him and try to meet him where he is however we need to get him safe to handle. Up to date on all vetting. If there is a home out there that is looking for a companion horse and is a trainer or experienced that can provide sedation for trims until you train him up, please reach out to us.
Sponsorship per month $325
Roman
Roman: 17 year young quarter cross. This beautiful boy is doing good. We have let him take this time to get to know the property again. We are trying to decide if we can send him to our trainer, Cat Zimmerman for a refresher or work with him here. He is so beautiful and a great boy however it takes the right person to be able to ride him. He has to have a confident rider and has to be consistently ridden or he gets super sassy under saddle. Up to date on all vetting. If you are looking for a great horse and are a confident rider, please reach out to us. Sponsorship $325 per month
Seven
Seven is a 3 yr old large mini. We need to measure him to be exact. This sweet boy is full of personality. He came in feral and has come a long way. We will continue to work with him until the right home comes along.
Sponsorship per month $150
River & Bailey
We are so grateful to share that these two beautiful, bonded horses — River & Bailey — have safely arrived at the rescue.
Their owner was facing serious health challenges and made the heartbreaking decision to rehome them. When they were listed online at a very low price, we stepped in to help ensure they did not fall into the wrong hands. Our mission is always prevention — intervening before horses are at risk, not after.
These two share a special bond and will be staying together as they begin their next chapter!
River is a 20 year old mare, current on all vetting, more go than whoa however safe, no buck, rear or bolt. I would say intermediate rider as she is a bit sensitive.
Bailey is a 20 year old gelding, more whoa than go. He is a good boy under saddle.
