Name: Jax
Age: 22+
Breed: QH
Training: Assessing
Temperament: Friendly
Meet Jax. Jax is a sweet senior that's done catering humans around and now needs someone to give him loads of love on the ground. He kind and gentle and loves attention. He's got a weird growth on his one thigh that we havd the vet looked at and said no big deal. He's sound, but definitely a senior and not moving quite as fast as the youngsters. We THINK hes early 20s.
You all know how we feel about allowing seniors a soft retirement. it's exactly what wed expect for humans A 'life of leisure; good food, naps, online shopping and holidays to Mexico😏'. Jax would love a family to call his own, especially one with little kids that value not every animal needs to be of use, other than what it brings their heart.
Jax is BFFs with Jethro and we'd LOVE to see them adopted together!
Jax fee is 1200.00 or 700.00 if adopted with Jethro.

Name: Buttercup
Age: 7
Breed: QH x
Temperament: Super sweet
Training: Halter broke
This sweetheart loves people and loves spending time with them. She's easy to be around, first at the gate and could stand for days being loved on. She's great with kids and safe to around in a pasture. She has a crooked back leg and just overall conformationally incorrect. Buttercup shouldn't be ridden at any point as we believe her body would break down quickly. She's absolutely fine otherwise, and you'll love having her in the pasture!
Buttercups fee is 850.00
Name: Sassy
Age: senior
Breed: QH
Training: unknown
Temperament: nervous
Senior mare with lots of scars that to me make it look like she's been in a bad wreck. She gets alone with every horse she meets, so will make a wonderful companion for another needing it. She's easy in the herd, loves treats and would make a lonely horse happy!
Sassys fee is very minimal to approved home
This boy is sound and gorgeous, but we believe he is retired bucking stock. Sold as meat only, he doesn't want anything to do with humans. For now, he'll continue to be a permanent resident but does need a sponsor!

This sweet mare just turned 5. Draft cross, shes super gentle and sweet. Her front leg is significantly crooked, so she will never be sound for riding. She gets around fine and isn't in pain. She's just a really sweet soul that needs a family of her own!

Name: Onna
Age: 20+
Training: broke but retired
Temperament: Super kind and gentle
Meet Onna. This sweet palomino mare came from a dealer and had a home already set up, but unfortunately the home backed out so she's here and ready to rehome. She's a lovely, kind mare that was literally a bag of bones when she arrived. After having her teeth done, deworming, minerals and supplements she's putting the weight on but it's slow going. She desperately needs a family of her own to spoil her rotten.
Vet aged her early 20s. Apparently the old owners were trying to ride her in the condition she was in, and the storey could go on and on but.....she's here with us and safe now and that's what matters.🩵
She's a companion only(for now). Maybe if her weight picks up and things go well she could do light riding for little people but we strongly believe in allowing the seniors to retire. Onna will come with a winter blanket🩷
Onnas adoption fee is 1200, or 700 if adopted with another.
