August (Currently in Rehab)

August is a thoroughbred gelding (foaled in 2020, currently standing 15.2hh) who came to MHARF in an August 2024 humane case. (He was a stud at intake time and was gelded in November, 2024.) When he first came in, August spent time in-patient at Anoka Equine Veterinary Services receiving treatment and intake care. After he was released, he came to the MHARF farm for rehab and to continue his re-feeding program. August gained weight and recovered nicely over the winter, but as he began to feel better he started to show us more studdy behavior. As of February 2025, August has gone into training. He is not available for adoption at this time as he needs more time to learn how to be safe on the ground before he is started under saddle.
