Oberon was adopted out in March of 2008, and has changed his kingly title more appropriate to his new trail riding skills. “Ranger”, as he is now known by, lives each day to the fullest, spending time amongst green pastures and excelling at defeating the “scary and horse-eating” creeks that wind through the forest.

Dear Minnesota Hooved Animal Rescue,
A month ago, Drew told me she got a very interesting pony mule in that she named “Hoolie”. Her age was late teens to 20 years old. Drew thought she was a great mule.
I own a Handicapped riding facility named Majestic Hills Ranch. We give free rides to children that have all sorts of special needs. They range in ages from two to 18 years old.
Here’s Chrissy, the sorrel mare laying (okay, more like buried) in the round bale. Chrissy was adopted by Brandy Olsen and is enjoying her life of relentless hard work with her friend Mister (the dark gelding).
Okay, maybe there’s not so much hard work. As you can see she’s got it pretty rough! And she can’t seem to relax!
Four years ago, my parents adopted Charlie Brown, a horse from the Hooved Animal Rescue. He was one of 45 horses, abandoned, and, thankfully, rescued. Charlie was my dream come true. I had been riding dressage for three years. I didn’t really know Charlie until after he was broke to ride, when I rode him in one of my lessons. In that lesson, I found the best horse (in my opinion) in the world. From March to July,
To Drew and the other great volunteers:
Just would like you to know how wonderful “Dave” is. We could have not asked for such a kind and sweet horse. He is working out just grand and has adapted very well to his new home.
When he arrived at French Lake stables last Friday night, December 23rd, 2005, he took a good look at the new surroundings before exiting the trailer and let out several whinnies to announce that it looked just fine here.
