Elsa has been Adopted!
Elsa is a light gray mini mare who came in from a November 2019 Chisago County humane case. Elsa spent several days at the University of MN having her intake vet work done, has been preg checked and is in foal with a winter baby. We normally don’t adopt out pregnant mares, but Elsa’s foster home is very experienced with foaling, so when they asked to adopt her (and her foal in-utero) we agreed.
Rita is a sorrel quarter pony mare who was foaled in approximately 2003-2004 and stands approximately 14hh. She came in from a November 2019 Chisago County humane case. Rita went through our rehab program and was then assessed for training and was found to not have been started under saddle. Rita was placed with trainers for our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge but was pulled from that event because she had some ongoing trust and fear issues and it was felt a competitive training venue was not right for her.
Eve has been ADOPTED!
Eve is a bay mare who was foaled in approximately 2016. She came in during a 2019Chisago County humane case. She was quite thin at intake and has spent several months in rehab at a foster home. She is doing very well and has been placed with trainer Courtney Gunter for our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge. She will spend the spring and summer in training and be available for adoption at the event in September.
Jewell is a nice palomino stock-type mare who was foaled in approximately 1994 and stands 15.2hh. She came to us when we were called out by Sherburne County to pick her up as an estray horse. Her owner was found but didn’t want her back so she was signed over to us. She has had her vet work (including dental). She has decent teeth for her age. We were told she is broke to ride and to drive both single and double.
Thank you to Brandy for this update on Esperanza! “Essie” is one of our most recognizable alumni, being known as the “sled filly”. She and her mother Dolores came in during a humane case in December of 2012. Esperanza was so weak she couldn’t stand and had to be taken from the trailer into the clinic by sled. Thank you to the emergency care of Dr. Nicole Eller and staff, Esperanza was able to recover from extreme hypothermia,
