A horse can have more than one sponsor as $50.00 a month does not cover feed, hay, vets, farrier etc.
Due to the economic difficulties suffered by most people, we don't want to lose the perfect home for our fur kids. So as of October 2009 all horse adoption fees have been lowered.

10 Thoroughbreds - 2 remain adoptable. "Beamer" and Silkyare on the Memorial page. Others are on the animals adopted page
For those of you unfamiliar with the case, these thoroughbreds were all rescued via a HS seizure and came to Hog Heaven Rescue Farm in April 2003 with lice, scabs, nearly bald with split hooves, burrs in their tails, as well as being emaciated and dehydrated. One mare Boca had a broken jaw. Mercedes was so far gone our Vet thought she wouldn't make it. Most of the boys had severe sheath infections. The courts ruled and we were given full custody of them in 3/04. Case Number 1579 click HERE to read details. We are happy to offer them chances for a new life, especially since 20 of their herd mates died. These horses have never been raced and are sound. They can excel at anything you choose with a little time and training. Take a look at them. We're sure one of these special horses will win your heart. |

Lexus - Lexus was adopted | |
Silky - A chestnut mare in training with Nicole Koontz 9/1/06 to 12/3. Note from Nicole: Nicole says Silky is a very good girl. Just didn't know anything. She is fine with cross ties, tacking up and lounging ... also riding in the arena. If you push her at a trot, she does get tight but has never bucked. She does very well with repetition. Nicloe is avilable for questions if anyone is interested. I would love to find a foster home for Silky that can continue the same routine. She was kept in a stall and ridden daily. Approximately 15 yrs old in 2010 Adoption fee: $300.00 | |
