Porsche (Porsche has been adopted!)

(Update: Porsche has been adopted!) Porsche is a chestnut grade Arabian weanling age filly who came to MHARF from a December 2017 humane case. Porsche has already found an adoptive home!

Dollar (Dollar has been Adopted!)

Dollar is a  grade Arabian x Saddlebred gelding who came to MHARF from a December 2017 Washington County humane case. He was foaled in approximately 2008 and stands approximately 14.3hh. Dollar had some issues with thin soles at intake and required front shoes.  He has been doing very well with regular farrier care and is now sound, but he will most likely require shoes if he is going to be doing road or trail work. Dollar has been in a foster home since intake and in February 2020 we finally had a chance to get a training assessment on him (thank you to Kaitlyn Fedewa–see video link below). We now know he is broke to ride (Kaitlyn did walk/trot in the arena bareback and bitless, but did not push him to canter on this ride) but we are still considering him relatively green since he does need more refresher work. He is a high-energy horse and suitable for an advanced/experienced rider at this time. His foster person Holly says he has a great temperament and good ground manners.

Whiskey (Whiskey has been adopted!)

(Update Whiskey has been adopted!) Whiskey is a bay grade Arabian weanling colt who came to MHARF during a large December 2017 humane case. Whiskey has already found an adoptive home!

Bayard (Adopted)

Bayard is a grade Arabian gelding who came to MHARF from a December 2017 case. He was foaled in approximately 2010 and stands around 14.2hh. Bayard came in with a stifle injury. He has needed some rehabilitation time to regain musculature that leg. He has been receiving wonderful care and therapy (including massages!) at his foster home. We would love to find him a permanent home as a companion horse.

 

Cherries (Student of the 2019 Trainer’s Challenge)

Cherries has been ADOPTED!

Cherries is a nice bay mare who came to MHARF from a May 2017 humane case. She was foaled in approximately 2015 and stands around 13.2hh and is still growing. She is half sister to Laylee who came from the same case. We don’t have a lot of information about Cherries’ breeding but believe she is an Arab/paint/pony cross. She spent the summer with trainer Brenda Boyd for our 2018 Promise of the Future Training Competition. (Please note: the POF competition is for horses 3 and under who are too young to start under saddle. It is an in-hand competition only.) Brenda and Cherries competed successfully and brought home the Grand Championship! Cherries has now been placed with trainer Sarah Lemke for our 2019 Trainer’s Challenge. She will spend the spring and summer in training and will compete under saddle in the Challenge on Sept. 7th. For more information on how to adopt Cherries or any of the other horses at the Trainer’s Challenge, please visit our Adopting a Trainer’s Challenge Horse page!
