Kristoff (Kristoff has been Adopted!)

Kristoff has been adopted!

Kristoff is a grade quarter horse gelding who was foaled in approximately 2016 and who stands approximately 14.1hh. He is a shelter to shelter transfer from Pony Tales Rescue in Wisconsin and originally from a 2019 Carlton County, MN, humane case. Kristoff was not broke to ride when he came in and he was placed with trainer Jadyn Mossengren in our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge. He spent the spring and summer in training with Jadyn and they competed in the Trainer’s Challenge in  September, taking home the Reserve Championship! (You can see Kristoff’s progress throughout his training on his Facebook Page!)

Kristoff was adopted but it turned out not to be the right placement so he has returned to MHARF. He is now back in training with Sarah Lemke of Step Up Horsemanship.  Kristoff has a lot of really good training (as you can see by the photos!). However, he was gelded late and does tend to be dominant with other horses. He is currently in a small mixed herd and is now doing well–but this is something that any potential adopter should keep in mind.

 

Mr. Jerry (Adopted!)

Mr. Jerry is an off-the-track thoroughbred gelding who was released to MHARF in March 2020 from an estate of an owner who could sadly no longer care for him.  He stands 16.2hh and was foaled in approximately 2012. Mr Jerry has been having some issues with back soreness and with soft soles in his front hooves. This is due to having spent several years in a stall, which was especially hard on him at his large size. He is currently receiving treatment at his foster home.

Magic (Adopted)

Magic (Rudys Cabello) is an off-the-track thoroughbred mare who was released to MHARF in a March 2020 case from the estate of an owner who could sadly no longer care for her. She was foaled in 2013. In 2021 she had assessment/refresher training with Jenna S Horse Training. She was adopted at that time but was just recently returned because her adopter could not keep her. Magic is suitable at this time for an experienced rider.

Freckles (Freckles has been Adopted!)

Freckles is a registered quarter horse mare (LM Quincy Freckles, DOB 04/29/97) who came to MHARF as an owner surrender because her owner could no longer keep her (along with her companions, Maggie and Quinn, both originally adopted from MHARF). Freckles stands 14.3 hh. She is a nice mare but is not broke to ride.

Wakita (Wakita has been Adopted!)

Update: Wakita has been Adopted!

Wakita is a stock-type mare who is estimated by the vet to have been foaled in approximately 2007. She came to us as an owner surrender. Wakita had an abdominal hernia that needed repair (most likely a trauma-related hernia). The surgery has now been done and she is on stall rest until May. She will be available for adoption after she has recovered and has had a training assessment.
