By adopting one of our horses, you are saving two lives; the one you adopt helps make room for another horse to come in. We believe in second chances and we have many horses looking for their second career.
Please complete an Adoption Application. We will contact you for a meet and greet.

DownloadLooking for an athletic, well-minded, horse that has seen it all? From dressage, hunter/jumper to trail horse, a retired racehorse may be your perfect match.
The Thoroughbred industry created and supports the Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance (TAA) to help horses make a safe transition from racing careers. We work with Thoroughbred owners and trainers to support and rehome horses retired from racing.
We work with racetracks and trainers in the racing industry to help off-track-Throughbreds (OTTB) transition to a new career. Accredited by Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance we follow strict guidelines and best practices to ensure a safe, happy future for retired racehorses.

BJ never would have imagined he would go from racing to finding "his person". The photo says what mere words cannot describe.
Pilgrim was a severe starvation case with so many medical issues. With many months of rehab, he regained his weight, regained trust in humans and found his heart person.
Who could forget this brave little guy. He came to us suffering severe facial injuries. He survived many surgeries and constant care. He then caught on fire when our barn burned down in April. Once again, he survived and is now living a life he could only have imagined.
Dual is a an easy going quarter horse that really needed his own person.
Ollie went to be a companion for a half blind horse that needed a buddy to keep him company.
Jerry is serving as a companion to a couple of Standardbreds
Dan was adopted to be a low level hunter and trail horse. We are excited to see this pair.
T-Rod is living his best life with his young family. He is spoiled rotten by his 3 human siblings.
Out of a starvation case and now living the life with her young rider. She barrel races, trail rides and even ponies race horses!
