Big Tony (Big Tony has been Adopted!)

Update: Big Tony has been Adopted!

This big guy is ready to find a new adoptive or foster home! Big Tony is a Belgian gelding, 19-20 years old, 18+ hands, diagnosed with Cushing’s disease and currently being treated w/ 1 tab of Prascend daily. Needs grass hay only diet, ration balancer ok but no grain or treats. Dental work done, good teeth, coggins tested, rabies vac, dewormed. Decent feet (still needs trim) . Nice temperament, training level unknown at this time but he is easy to handle, loads and trailers well. Recent intake form Sherburne County humane case.

Cinco (Cinco has been Adopted!)

Cinco is a pinto gelding who was foaled in approximately 2011 and stands approximately 14.3hh. He came to MHARF as the only survivor from a February 2020 Kanabec County humane case. Cinco is doing very well and has now gained enough weight to have some light refresher training with Anna Hill (see video below). Cinco is a gaited horse.

Alexa (Alexa has been Adopted!)

 

Alexa is a 2017 dark bay thoroughbred mare who came to MHARF in February 2020. She was surrendered by an owner who had recently purchased her but did not have the resources to give her the care she needed. She had her intake veterinary work and when she was ready she was placed with trainer Alyssa Bjorklund in our 2020 Trainer’s Challenge. She spent the spring and summer in training with Alyssa and successfully competed in the event in September. Alexa is now available for adoption. Because of her young age and the fact that she has not been under saddle for very long Alexa is suitable for an intermediate rider (working with a trainer) and up. She does have an issue with a crack in her front foot and is still requiring front shoes.

You can follow Alexa’s progress on her Facebook Page!

 

Bennett (Bennett has been Adopted!)

Update: 02/08/20: Bennett has been Adopted!

Bennett is a mini gelding who came to MHARF in Jan 2020 from an abandonment case in Mille Lacs County. He was a stallion at intake but has now been gelded. He is approximately 3 years old and stands around 34″.  He’s a nice boy but needs some ground work and training to learn his manners (he tends to be a little sassy–most likely due to the fact that he was just recently gelded and did not have a lot of handling in the past).

Patsy

Patsy is a miniature mare who was foaled in 2008. She was originally adopted with her buddy Fiona and both have participated in 4H events. Now the kids have moved onto larger horses and Patsy and Fiona’s adopter would love for them to find a new home where they will get the attention they deserve. They are very bonded and we prefer they be adopted together.
