Again - we didn't have a lot of time and there are more horses there... let's spread the word and help these horses get out of the circuit.. There is one high priced boy obviously not in danger at the moment of going to slaughter but a very nice horse and I already had the pictures - he would be a nice moving Fox Hunt prospect.

Thanks so much for getting back with me, I really appreciate it. I do understand about not having a place to put any animals at this time. I would greatly appreciate ANY help that you can give to help me find Koby a good home. I think that he could be useful for possiby a therapy horse as long at it is at a walk or a light person/kid. He is trained and has been shown Country English Pleasure and in Halter this year prior to having his problem surface with the navicular disease. He would also be great for a companion to another horse, he has been turned out with other horses without any problems. I will attach photo's of him and again would appreciate any help that you can offer. I can be contacted any time at 318-372-5806 and I am located in West Monroe, LA.

Thanks again for responding, that is more that many other places have done.

3. FW: HELP!!! Beautiful horse in jeopardy

Tue Jul 22, 2008 10:28 am (PDT)
Contact Meg directly at my work e-mail, megan@reedinsuranceservice.com (megan @ reedinsuranceservice.com). My only concern is that she will run out of antibiotics in about a week. She is located in Southwest Washington.
I know of a gorgous, young horse who is going to be put down if
somebody can't take her. She is double registered AQHA and 88%
foundation, has 3 weeks of ground training already. This little girl
needs surgery on an impacted tooth and her owner just can't afford
it. If you, or anyone you know, wants this girl, the owner is willing
to give her away to somebody that will have the surgery done. I had
the girl at my house for a year and what a doll. I would take her if
I wasn't already at my max. This is a friendly, steady and wonderful
horse. Very loving and playful, no bad habits, had a child riding her
before her 2nd birthday, has never had shoes on, loads, ties, bathes
you name it. Please, please pass this on to anybody you know that is
willing to take on this wonderful girl.

Hi Brandi,
     Please add and continue - Sweetie is a 3 year old bay mare that had a leg injury at birth. She comes running when you call her. She should do great with a light rider or as a companion horse. She is free to a good home. She is halter broke and has had a saddle on many times.
     Raven is a 15 year old registered quarter horse mare. She came to us for rehab and found out that she has a severe dental problem and the dentist will be here in August.
This is a horse for an experienced rider or intermediate with experience. We haven't had a fair chance to try her.
      Both are up to date on shots, vaccinations and Coggins. If you have any questions: please call Kelly @ 815-777-9091 or Rhonda 815-777-2014. We live near Galena, Il.

Horses for adoption:

1. I have listed my landlord’s three mares on my website. Please note that they have very limited handling. I am reintroducing the halter and will work with them until a good home is found for them. 6 yr old grulla roan mare, approximately 13.2 – 14.0 H, very petite mare, slight injury to hoof, but should come back sound. She is still a bit nervous about the halter, but is gradually letting me put it on her. She allows it over her nose, but when reaching up to put the part behind her ears, she gets a bit nervous. $300 obo. 5 yr old bay roan mare. Approximately 14.2 – 15H. Beautiful face and very willing to please. She is haltering nicely now and is beginning to take tentative steps forward when asked. Not bad considering we are working in the pasture with all the other horses around! $400 obo. My landlord also has an older bay roan mare. This mare is very friendly likes people, is halter broke (she is a little nervous at first when you start to put the halter on, but once on she will do anything asked of her), and had a beautiful bay colt last year (she is open this year.) She is not registered. I am not for sure how old she is...I forgot to ask my landlord today (29 Apr). $400 obo. I will require references (vet, farrier, and other) before being sold. You can see their pictures at http://missyshopeequinerescueresource.freehostia.com on the horses we are helping page. Although I am not a rescue, I am listing them here because I will be thorough about the home that they go to. Please email me for more info Missys.hope @ gmail.com (remove spaces) Located in Nebraska. Update: The landlord has mentioned taking them to auction a couple of times lately. I am still working to keep him from sending them, but due to high risk early pregnancy, I haven’t been able to work with them as much right now. In 2 more weeks I am cleared to start back up slowly though!

2. Hello all,
One of our adopters is dealing with a 2nd bout of cancer, and is returning a mini gelding they adopted from us. Additionally, they have a 9 year old paint gelding, 15H, bay and white. He is broke to ride, but due to medical issues of the adopter (not the horse) he has not been ridden the last year.
If anyone is interested in either horse, please contact us.
Thanks!

Subj: Jelly Bean Joe needs a home
Hi Sarah,
Here are pics I took today of my boy Jelly Bean. I have others from last
year I will try to forward to you later. So here's the scoop:
He is 15.2H and coloring is called smutty buckskin. If you just look at
him quickly, you'd call him a bay, especially in the winter. He is a 10
year old AQHA gelding. I do have the papers on him.
Background - started off as a barrel horse but didn't like it, I suspect
because his hocks got sore. Has done a lot of trails and is good alone, in
groups, on the road or in the rough. I did one judged ride on him and he
was excellent. I have owned him for just under 2 years and have done 1
month of training with Bob Burrelli and then trails only.
He has fantastic ground manners. He likes being around people. Usually
comes to me when I go to bring him in from turnout. I never tie him, just
tell him to stand still and he will hang out for all the grooming, tacking,
farrier, whatever. He can be cross tied (I used to) but don't need to
anymore. He is great for vet and farrier. He self loads on the trailer - I
would say he even enjoys going for a ride - he's always anxious to get on
once I've got it hitched!
He is very sensitive to aids when ridden and takes a light hand. I ride
him in a snaffle. He is very eager to please and learns quickly. His gaits
are pleasant and he has a brisk walk. He moves forward very easily.
He gets along well with other horses, though at this barn he was only
turned out with one other gelding, so I don't have extensive first hand
experience.
Health wise, He has never been colicky, and keeps weight on easily. I did
have his hocks injected thinking that the bucking issue may have been
secondary to that. He's probably go some arthritis there and I wouldn't
recommend him for any speed or hard turning work. I keep shoes on him,
though he came to me barefoot.
Now the bad stuff. There is only 1 problem with Jelly Bean and that is
his occassionally bucking. 95% of the time when I ride, he is an absolute
perfect gentleman. The problem seems to come when he gets upset about
something, and he will throw a buck. 25 years ago, this wouldn't have
bothered me, but I'm getting older and dont roll or recover as well, so I've
decided to look for a safer horse.
I am hoping you can help me place him. He is such a wonderful horse in
so many ways, I'd like to see him go to someone who can appreciate him and
who has the experience to deal with the bucking. I would certainly consider
a trade.
Let me know what you think.
Thank you!
Sue Ellen Mowcomber

4. Purebred Arabian Mare looking for help. (feel free to xpost)

I will start by saying this is not a rescue but it is a plea for help.

My friend Beth as a VERY nice 9 yr old, purebred Arabian mare that is about 3/4 CMK and 1/4 Spanish bred that she would like to place in a home that can do more for the mare then she can.

Ameer Faiths story:

Beth owned this mare since she was born and had high hopes for her but that wasn't the way things turned out.

Faith is a very beautiful Grey mare with the sweetest personality and a pedigree to die for.

A lady came by one day to buy another mare Beth had for sale and fell in love with Faith and after several months and and allot of promises she sold the mare to this person who promised to train, show and give her a forever home, with a return clause if it didn't work out.

Faith was broken to ride and bred to this Lady's stud. Suddenly one day she started bucking off her rider and became hard to catch.

Long story short Beth bought the mare back and took her home.

The first thing she noticed was that her knee was about 3 times the size it should have been and they had been riding her this way!!

The injury was old enough that her knee was cold and hard so Beth has had her retired to pasture and the next year she was bred and carried the foal with no problems.

This year is a different story though and Faith is now prone to limping on the bad leg. Pain meds help her but Beth isn't in a situation she feels that she can do this mare as much good as someone who has more experience working towards this kind of injury. Without this special care Faith needs, she will more then likely have her life shortened by being put down instead of being let suffer.

She being offered for free but only to an approved home that can and is willing to help her out. She is not in danger of being sent to auction.

Beth will stay in contact with who ever takes her and Faith can be returned if need be.

Shes located Northern California.

If any ones interested in her they can msg me for more information keeperquest_2002@yahoo.com (keeperquest_2002 @ yahoo.com)

Hello,

My name is Erik Lanphier and my mother Karen Claffey age 63 recently lost her husband of 20 years. They have been somewhat of a rescue operation in Polson Montana, caring for 13 horses of which they have collected over the past 20 years from friends or relatives that could not care for them. Regrettably, my mother is not able to care for the 250 acres of property, numerous out barns and the 13 horses any longer and has put the property up for sale. She is planning on moving closer to me and my younger brother in Northern Illinois. The plan is to take four of the horses with her, but that leaves nine of the horses to find homes for. They have been pasture horses for years, they are older horses that would need to be broken, and they probably will not trailer very well. We would be willing to make numerous donations to your rescue operation in many different forms based off of what I read on your wish list. The most probable number to contact me at would be my cell phone 630-327-5205.

We would appreciate any help you can provide for us.

6. Hello everyone
Our yearlings and 2-year-olds just came up on Sunday from FL, and there's a 2-year-old gelding in the bunch with an injury that will keep him from ever hitting the track. He's been declared a giveaway, so...I figured you'd be the folks that might be able to help find a suitable home for the guy. We can arrange to van him to his new home gratis.
I'm kind of under a tight deadline to get this boy out of here, so if you can do anything, forward this on to anyone, ANYTHING, I'd be forever in your debt. His prognosis for recovery is great, so I don't think I could live with myself if he had to be put down because he wasn't placed in time.
Vie is a dark bay/brown gelding by Caller I. D., sane and calm and quiet, just like his mom Pineyville. A few months ago down at the training farm, he apparently got a superficial cut on his right foreleg from a guide wire, but it became infected and he ended up losing some of the flesh on it to bacteria. Our vet, Jeffrey Edelson of Manheim, said it's debatable whether Vie would have recurring pain from the infection, but he was leaning towards probably not. He said that with a year or so of rest and rehab, there was no reason why he couldn't be used for hacking, trail riding, or flatwork. (Just nothing involving galloping.)
Getting Vie's skin to close is the most important thing right now, and Dr. Edelson does have an ointment that would hasten that process that he could provide. Vie should have mild exercise (walking) and ideally be confined to a small paddock so he won't get the idea to take off at a gallop. He should NOT be confined to his stall, as he needs air and light exercise to recover.
Attached are various photos of walking, trotting, conformation shots that were taken around 3:30 p.m. yesterday. Vie looked great and moved very well. Chuck King, our stallion man (Real Quiet's handler) and all-around horseman here at the farm, was impressed with his movement and how you couldn't see the injury affecting him at all if you didn't know it was there.
Please forward this on to anyone you know that may be willing to let this guy have some R 'n R for a while. He's sane, quiet when having his feet handled, very mellow, and just an all-around good guy that doesn't deserve an untimely end when he could have a bright future ahead of him.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

His name is Jack. I don't know how old he is but I think he's full grown. We have had him a couple of years. We took him in because his owner couldn't afford to fed him. He has been well fed since he has been with us. We don't have the knowledge for the continued care he needs. He is very shy around people because we don't know what to do with him. This is why the price is so low. I would appreciate Jack moving where he will be well taken care of. Please email or call 615-429-8382 if you can help. Thanks

1. Hi Guys! Just cross-posting.. All contact information is below. Thanks!!

"Be part of the solution....not part of the problem. Silence is NOT always the mark of wisdom."
SLY is about 12 years old (the best estimate I was given from person I got him from). He is around 16.2hh maybe a little taller. He seems to really like kids and is very very calm. We've ridden him a couple of times and he rode down side the highway fine. The problem we have is he can't seem to stay sound. When he was racing he bowed a tendon, it seems to have healed, but he started having some absesses on his front feet. Do not know why. I really just don't have the money to put into finding out what his problem really is. I've had him for about 2 years and I need to find him a really good home because he deserves it. He can be a pasture mate or maybe a 4-H peoject. He is really pretty and has a great personality. I would describe him as a gentle giant.

Thanks for your help. Pics are attached.

Hi,

Thanks for your quick response. Yes if you could pass on the info on SLY I would be grateful. He is a wonderful horse and seems to love kids. I think maybe he could be a 4-h projcet or halter class project. I do have pics if anyone would to see them. Thanks Again.
