ADAM

ADAM'S APPLE

Appaloosa

Gelding

Gray

$35

 

 

 

 

 

Adam came to us in July 2008 as a starvation case from Prince George's County. Due to a lameness originating in his right shoulder, Adam is not able to be ridden but would be ideal as a companion. He is still young and frisky, so he'd be best suited with a more dominant horse that would keep him in his place. It would be best for Adam to go to a home where a stall is available in case he needs a break for his shoulder. Adam ties for feed, is barefoot, good for the vet and farrier, and requires an intermediate handler. This boy is loaded with personality. Give him a chance and check him out!

Aspen was recently returned to us from her adoptive home of 6 years.  She is a sweet mare and is looking for her new home.  Aspen is good for the vet and farrier, barefoot, and suitable for an advanced beginner to intermediate handler. Under saddle, she has lots of get-up-and-go desite her age! We are still in the process of evaluating her, but she would be best suited for an strong intermediate rider.




ATHENA

Athena is a gorgeous and gentle giant looking for a home. This girl loves to be pampered and will stand for you all day if you'll love on her. She has tied for grooming, but we typically feed her in a stall or paddock. Athena is good for the vet and farrier and gets along with the other mares in her herd, although she is dominant. Due to her size, and the fact that she knows how big she is, Athena needs a draft-proof fenceline. She has sidebone in both front legs, so while she cannot be ridden she'd make an excellent companion horse for someone looking for a absolutely gorgeous pasture puff!




DHARMA

Dharma arrived to us in April 2009 from Baltimore County as a neglect case.  She is a sweet mare who loves to be groomed and is good for an advanced beginner handler.  She is a timid mare who can be a bit ear shy, so she does best when handled gently.  Dharma is good for the vet and farrier, and is currently barefoot.  In the field, she is very timid and would do best with other passive horses.  She has started training on the ground and she lunges nicely and is very perceptive.  She has accepted a bridle, saddle and rider without any issues.  She has done walk and trot under saddle, but seems to be very unsure of steering and going at a consistent speed.




DIVA

Mare

Liver Chestnut

Diva came to us in October 2009 along with 18 other horses from Baltimore City. She is an older mare, looking for someone who will give her a quiet and stable home where she can live out the rest of her days. Due to her extreme sway back, she cannot be ridden and is looking for a companion-only home. Diva spent much of her life locked in a stall with limited to no contact with other horses. Due to her living situation, her social skills were not well-developed and she is easily overwhelmed by other horses, so we would consider adopting Diva out to a home with no other horses. We would also consider a home with other horses, as long as the herd is unchanging and the adopter is willing to give her the time she needs to adjust to her new friends. This matriarch deserves the peace and tranquility that she so desperately desires. Can you find it in your heart to take this lovely girl home?

Essence came to us in September 2010 from another rescue in Pennsylvania. She is a very nice mare who loves attention and LOVES her best friend, Athena (with whom she'd love to find a home!). Essence is barefoot and is good for the vet and farrier. Due to behavioral issues under saddle, Essence is only suitable as a companion horse. Check this sweetie out today!




HOEDOWN & JUNEBUG

HOEDOWN

  • Gelding

  • $35

 

Hoedown came to us years ago as a starvation/founder case.  He was adopted to a home as a companion for Junebug.  His adopters took great care of him for many years until unforseen circumstances forced them to return him, however they needed to find a home for Junebug as well.  Since Hoedown and Junebug had formed a strong bond over the years that they had been together, we decided we'd take Junebug as well and try to find them another home together.  Both ponies have foundered, and cannot go to a home with grass.  They tie for feed, are good for the farrier, and get along well with other barnyard critters.  So if you're looking to start your own petting zoo of miniature animals, take a look at these two!

Maura came to us from Carroll County on St. Patrick's Day, hence her Irish name.  She ranked at a 1 out of 9 on the Henneke Scale, had overgrown hooves, teeth in need of floating, and a severe rainrot along her withers, topline, and rump.  Due to her weak condition, Maura was forced to live in a sling for three weeks until she was strong enough to lay down and get back up on her own.  She is now fully recovered and feeling 100% better.  Maura ties for feed and grooming and is good for baths, the vet, and farrier.  She requires an intermediate to advanced handler when taking her out of her routine, as she can be someone herdbound.  Maura has been experiencing periodic lameness in the hind end lately that our vet feels may be neurological, therefore we will be adopting her out as a companion only.  Give this gorgeous girl a home.  She's been through a lot and deserves the best.

Nala arrived from Prince George's County in the Spring 2010 as a starvation case, ranking at a 1 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Chart.  She was covered in rain rot and her feet were overgrown and infected with thrush.  She made a smooth recovery and is now ready to find her new home.  Under saddle she is super-quiet and goes well as the w/t/c.  Nala requires an intermediate handler and advanced beginner rider.  Nala is good for the vet, farrier and baths.  We look forward to seeing how this pretty girl turns out once she gets a little more training under her belt.  She has loads of potential.  Give this pretty girl a home!




VIENNA

Vienna arrived to us in June 2011 as a starvation case out of Baltimore County.  She made a very smooth and speedy recovery and has turned into a very nice girl.  Vienna ties for feed and grooming, and is good for the vet and farrier.  Once she gets over being slightly herd-bound she'll be suitable for an advanced beginner handler.  Under saddle, Vienna is well-trained but forward and would be suitable for an intermediate rider.  We have evaluated her at the walk/trot/canter and over fences.  She is very eager to go and seems to genuinely enjoy being ridden.  She is sound and barefoot and has no health issues.  This mare seems to have many years left in her and should be a great riding horse for someone looking to have some fun with an older, been-there-done-that horse!

Walker arrived to us from Carroll County Animal Control in November 2009.  He has had a good foundation of groundwork and he lunges well.  He stands quiet to be pampered and is an absolute gentleman.  He has accepted a saddle, bridle and a rider but we have been unable to continue with his training due to a persistent lameness  He would make a nice pleasure mount, but won't be able to hold up to extensive work.  However Walker's sweet nature makes him a great pasture pal to have around the farm!

Xpedition came to our farm in May 2010 as a starvation case out of Garrett County, along with 25 other horses. He made a fast and smooth recovery and is now looking for his forever home. Xpedition is blind in his right eye and can therefore be a bit spooky at times. Once he gets to know you though, and gains some confidence, he is a sweetheart and will try hard to please you. Xpedition has been evaluated under saddle and was found to be extremely nervous and spooky, so considering his age and history we think he'd be best suited as a companion only. He's been through a lot in his older years and deserves a nice, relaxing retiredment!

Yadin arrived from Garrett County in May 2010 as a neglect case along with 25 other horses.  Yadin suffered from a torn Peroneus tertius tendon back in the Fall 2010 and has been in training on the ground.  She seems to love working, and is good for ground work.  Yadin is good for the vet and farrier and gets along well with both mares and geldings  This girl's a cutie with lots of spunk!

Yukon arrived to us from Carroll County Animal Control in November 2009.  He was suffering from rainrot, burs in his coat, mane, and tail, overgrown feet, and parasites.  He ranked as a 4 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale.  Yukon has now made a full recovery and has turned into a gorgeous boy.  Due to navicular changes, Yukon is unable to be ridden and would be best suited as a companion horse.  He is most comfortable when stalled for half the day.  Yukon is a sweet boy with loads of heart and an overwhelming eagerness to please.  He ties for feed and grooming, is good for the vet and baths, and is good with both mares and geldings.

Zodiac is our biggest success story-to-date and is well-known and loved by hundreds, if not thousands.  For those who don't know, Zodiac came to us in September 2010 after being seized by Berkeley County (West Virginia) Animal County along with 50+ horses.  He was suffering from many different life threatening conditions brought on by his advanced emaciated, neglected state.  Zodiac spent 9 weeks in our Anderson Sling before he could even walk on his own.  This boy overcame the odds and has blossomed into the gorgeous, athletic horse that he is today.  Zodiac has a surgically fused right front fetlock, most likely due to an injury he sustained during his racing career.  This injury only allows him to a pasture pal, but he can still be seen romping and playing in the field with the other horses.  Zodiac ties for feed and grooming, is good for the vet and farrier, and is tolerant of just about anything you do with him.  An advanced handler can handle this gentle giant and we're sure it won't take long for him to find a home.  We'll shed bittersweet tears of joy when he finally moves on to his new life.  Zodiac recently went to the VA Equine Extravaganza and was showcased next to DEFHR's booth.  He loved the attention and was a complete gentleman.  He loved meeting new people and was truly a celebrity and he had people running after him to meet him!
