    Pasture Bound

    These equines are not ridable for various reasons.  Mostly the reasons are due to arthritis causing them to have manageable pain with medication. Any riding or round pen/exercises may exacerbate their issues.  Even though they may not be rideable they can make great pasture-mates/companions.  Understand there will be heavy scrutiny with these equines as we must ensure they are not ridden at all.

     

    Sanctuary

    Any equine whose care requirements are considered too volatile to vet or guarantee for adoption.  These equine medical conditions are severe enough that the stringent requirements of care are not to be taken lightly and too burdensome to pass the responsibility to individuals through adoption.  We presently do not possess the staff required to maintain a proper level of adopter observation & continued follow-up that is required to ensure care is given continuously. Therefore we find it more prudent to provide an environment of sanctuary to maintain a dignified remainder of life.
