Give a Gift of Hope and Life

Currently, we have 19 horses.  There are 18 available for adoption. They range from 7 to 30 years old.  Our horses have come to us from many situations – from people no longer able to care for them, some we have rescued from neglect or abuse, and others were saved before being sold for slaughter.

Some of our horses can be ridden and are ready to be adopted immediately.  Others are in training to get them ready for adoption. And others would make perfect pasture companions to your horse but cannot be ridden due to different issues, such as age factors, for example.

Donations are the only source of funding for us to be able to save, rehabilitate and adopt out our horses.

ELKE

Gorgeous Grey Arabian Mare. Elke is 11 years old and stands at 15.1 hands.  She could go by the name Snow White, but this girl knows she is a Queen. Her big, bold and beautiful eyes are set off by her powder white coat. Elke has the spirit and moxie of any dominant Arabian mare.  She is perfect for someone who loves those qualities in an Arab.  She has to yet be started under saddle.  But if you have the ability and the time she could take you places. Come visit “Her Majesty” and see what you think. Advanced rider necessary.

LB

Handsome Chestnut Pony Gelding.  LB is 7 years old and stands 14.2 hands. We have all speculated what LB stands for – Little Bit or Little Boy – but it should be known that this gorgeous stout pony was abandoned at a Utah boarding stable by his people.  It took some time before anyone noticed that he was abandoned. UAAC rescued him and started the process of nursing his body back to health and earning his trust in humans again. Why would anyone ever have abandoned him?  He has all of the qualities you want in a horse. LB is BACK healthy and sound. This guy is a curious sort, wants to please and will follow you all around as if to say, “Whatcha doin?”  He is ridable, perhaps still a bit green but perfect for a capable rider. LB has a straight, strong balanced gait and looks great under saddle.  He is very, very cute.  An earnest fellow who deserves a devoted rider to give him the attention and consistency he needs. Come visit LB and you too will fall in love.

REBA

Beautiful Red Branded Paint Quarter Horse Mare.  Reba is 15 years old and stands 15.1 hands.  I don’t know about you, but when I hear the name Reba, I think of the famous country singer and it’s a perfect name for this sweet, tender-hearted mare. She and her daughter, Savannah, along with their Pasture Pal, Grace, were rescued from the brink of death by starvation at a local facility here in Utah last October. As far as we can tell, there was nothing wrong with this mare, except she maybe temporarily lost faith in humans. How could anyone starve such a lovely creature? Although Reba was emaciated herself, she still managed to nurse Savannah, who was adopted into a wonderful home a few months ago.  Savannah inherited her sweet, earnest disposition from her mother, Reba, and that was one of the main reasons for her getting adopted.  Reba is caring, considerate and kind.  She might have been used as a ranch or riding horse, and might even have been shown at one time.  Although we are not a big fan of brands, Reba has the cutest freeze brand of a Texas longhorn on her left hip. It’s kind of like a sassy tattoo. This gal would make a perfect companion and trail horse. She may not be from Texas but her heart sure is that big.
