Our horses range in age and ability from young and competitive sport horses, to older quiet trail-mounts. Some of our horses have special needs, but most just had an unfortunate run of bad luck and need a new change at a loving forever home. Our efforts are supported solely by donations, adoption fees, sponsorship and A LOT of volunteer sweat.
Our horses are categorized as appropriate for beginner riders (rider who is new around equines, comfortable at a walk and maybe a trot), intermediate riders (rider who is comfortable at all gaits, specifically can post the trot, and can handle equines in various situations and environments), and advanced riders (rider who is comfortable handling difficult or green equines in various situations and environments). We also have several horses that are not rideable, but would be great companion horses, as well as young soon-to-be started horses and a few in rehabilitation! Make sure to check back with us frequently for updates on available horses. We do our best to keep the available horse adoption gallery up to date as changes occur.
Horses may be visited by appointment only, please contact us to schedule a time to come meet them. You will need to have filled out an Adoption Application prior to making an appointment. Please note we rarely adopt horses out of state because we do require home checks and a riding evaluation of the horse you're interested in adopting.

Available for Adoption
Profile: Age: 24 Height: 15 hh Gender: Gelding Breed: Grade Required Rider: Advanced Beginner (kid preferably) Weight Limit: 140 lbs Limitations/Maintenance: Daily equoixx Info: Another wonderful kid’s horse. Hemingway was adopted out to a wonderful family about 3.5 years ago but recently came back to the rescue when the family’s health deteriorated and they could no longer care for their horses. Hemingway was a dude ranch horse that was saved out of a kill pen prior to the beginning of The Annie Project. He is now 24 years old and has some arthritis in his right knee. He is a solid citizen, though, and is happy to go out on an easy trail or mosey around the arena with a kiddo. Hemingway came in with a friend, a lovely 19 year old mare named “Koda”. Koda is a companion/lead line horse due to a slight roach back, although she is very well broke. It would be amazing if they found a home together although it is not a necessity. She is a beautiful and kind mare View video here Adoption Fee: $800 |

HORSES IN TRAINING
ROULETTE
|
DHOH “Roulette” is doing well in training! Her trainer, Barry Mcaleenan, is taking it slow and steady which is just what she needs. Roulette is one of the unhandled mares we saved from auction back in April… she had a 2 day old colt at her side. She is the youngest of the mares that came to our rescue and, because of that, she is the least “damaged”. She’s a good girl and we hope she will have a bright future ahead!
