Here’s an update “Sparrow” (formerly known as Alexa from our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge w/ trainer Alysa Bjorklund) Her adopter Kate says: “She has been an absolute dear and I cannot thank you all enough for taking her in so I could end up finding her!”
We love this update! This is Star who came to us in December of 2019 because her owner was ill and could not provide care for her. We were asked by a kindly neighbor who had been feeding Star to take her in. The catch was that she had been a lone horse for almost her entire life and had not been handled in many years. We did not have any space to spare at that time and she was quite far south of us,
Thank you to Erin for this update on Georgie (formerly known as Quincy) in his new home:
“He’s doing so well. He lets me catch him every day and is LOVING all the attention he’s getting. We are just easing into working together so spend a lot of time getting scratched and special treats right now. The vet came today and confirmed his weight is on track, and how smart and sweet he is (which his Mom and many Aunties already knew).

Update: Billy has been ADOPTED
Billy (registered APHA Mister Fancy Skipper) is a 15.1hh, 2003 paint gelding who is well broke to ride. He came into our program because his owner could no longer keep him. He has trail experience but is buddy/barn-sour when going out a lone. He is currently with trainer Anna Hill of Longstocking Stables for training assessment and refresher (where she is working on this issue).

Thank you so much to Kris for sending this update on her adopted MHARF horse Raindance Ruby (American Saddlebred mare):
“Over a year and half ago I adopted Ruby. So hard to believe it has been that long! Our partnership is a strong one now, working through the rough patches with Anna’s (#Annahillparelliprofessional) guidance.
Ruby is still at her barn while I continue to take lessons from Anna. I get to see all the horses from the rescue that come through her barn (Longstocking Stables) and get adopted out,
