Adoption Information
|
We don't usually have ready to rodeo or show horses, nor is there
anything called a FREE horse. There is a wait list for a perfect
"kid broke/bomb-proof horse". If you are adopting a young
horse, PMU foal, BLM or wild/untrained horse you must have approved
housing/fencing/stalls and EXPERIENCE with horses!
|
Adoption Fees
|
Adoption fees will range...more for a well-trained or registered
horse, less for young, disabled or special needs horses. Average
fee is $750. We are totally funded by donations and have huge
costs with rehabilitating, feeding, and training these horses. We
do not receive any government or state funding. We do not rent horses
or provide horses for events. We prefer that you own and live on
the same property where the horse is kept. In most cases we will
remain the co-owner for the life of the horse so that it may never
be resold or given away.

Things To Consider
|
Please consider the following: Horses can be very expensive. Other
than the initial cost of stalls and fencing, there is the ongoing
cost of insurance, worming, shots, farrier bills, hay, feed, medications,
supplements, training, and hundreds of items that you will eventually
need to purchase. At some point you will probably be faced with
a large vet bill. Like people, horses can seriously injure themselves
or get very sick. One case of colic can cost you over $5,000, with
no guarantee that he will live through it. We expect you to have
the financial ability to handle these costs.
