Double adoption

Rowdy and Pepsi were adopted together today. Pepsi’s farewell was bittersweet as he lived at the rescue for a long time. Ken started Pepsi’s training and got him prepared for his first few rides with volunteers. We are happy that Pepsi is going to a forever home with someone who will be able to give him the attention he deserves.

Rowdy was a only at the rescue for a few months. His previous owner surrendered him last fall. As a mini horse, his chances of being adopted were much higher. We find that ponies and minis spend much less time at the rescue, even though all of the horses need attention and adoption.

Time to train

Thanks to a training scholarship from one of our volunteers, Jackie, Rusty is currently at a trainer. He is scheduled to have one month of training. So far he is adapting well to being with the trainer.

Jackie has been an asset to the rescue. She helped to find a good home for Roger, an Arabian that the rescue took in. Her new help with Rusty is much appreciated. We have many horses that need training. If you would like to fund a training scholarship, please contact us.

We also left Sierra with the trainer. She is a beautiful Arabian mare who is ready to be adopted. She had a minimal level of training when she left, but we expect that she will come back ready to ride!
