Adoption Agreement

Sid (L53 Ava's colt)

             Picture taken March 2011                                        Pictures taken July 2011

        

Sid was born on April 17, 2010 to L53, a 1994 mare.  Sid likes people and has the typical curiosity of a youngster.  He is halter broke, and you can pick up his feet.  Although he is too young to break to saddle, Sid is already fine with a blanket on his back and a rope around his girth area.  You can adopt Sid by himself for $200, or you can adopt both Sid and his mother for only $350.  See Available Ponies and Horses 5 yrs & older for pictures and description of L53 Ava (Sid's mom). 

L52's colt Julius & L52 Mindy

  Picture taken March 18, 2011   Picture taken May 11, 2010              Picture taken July 2011

     

Julius was born on March 17, 2011.  Mindy is halter broke, friendly, and sweet as can be.  She is very calm and easy to work with.  She will be a good family horse.  Julius is playful and energetic.  He is friendly and bold.   Julius is ready to be weaned, and now is a perfect time to adopt him so you can teach him all the things a growing horse should learn.  Mindy and Julius are both healthy and doing well.  You can adopt Julius for $200 or Mindy for $300.  If you'd like, you can adopt both Mindy and Julius for $350. 

L3 Timmy

Pictures taken Feb. 11, 2010

       

Timmy is very calm and has a great disposition.  He is halter broke and will stand for the farrier.  Catching Timmy is not a problem-he is eager for attention, and he will "catch" you!  Timmy will be a wonderful addition to any family.

L4 Bear

Adopted!!!

Bear is halter broke, and he is friendly and easy to work with.  Bear loves people, and he will bond very well with his adopter.  If you are looking for a new best friend, Bear is the one for you.  He has a very caring and kind disposition.  When we first acquired the ponies from the neglect situation, Bear and L3 Timmy (see above) were a bonded pair.  We believe it was that bond, together with the protectiveness Bear showed toward Timmy, that probably saved Timmy’s life when they were being neglected. 

L10 Jesse

             Picture taken Dec 2010          Picture taken Dec 2010     Picture taken September 2011

     

Jesse has an easygoing disposition.  He is friendly and loves treats.  Jesse knows the basics of being halter broke and he is learning to pick up his feet for you.  He is being worked with twice a week, and he will progress quickly when worked with more frequently. 

L14 Madeleine

                                       Photo taken Dec. 3, 2009                           Photo taken May 19, 2010

  

Madeleine was one of the toughest re-hab cases.  When she first arrived at the temporary facility, she had to be helped up several times.  Now she is in excellent condition and doing great.  She is friendly and easy to handle. 

          L16 Paloma

                                             Picture taken Dec 27, 2009                      Picture taken Feb. 11, 2010       

     

Paloma is calm as can be, and she has a wonderful disposition.  She is eager for attention and will come up to you, so catching her is easy.  Paloma will stand for the farrier, and she is halter broke.  She will be a great addition to your family. 

L28 Carson

  

Pictures taken December 2010

Carson is curious about people and will progress quickly when worked with on a regular basis.  He is currently at a foster home in the southwest Houston area.  Update October 2011: Carson can now be caught in a pasture, haltered, led, and tied.  He longes with a saddle and bridle quite well.  Carson is a clever pony and will soon be ready for under-saddle training.

                        L37 Taffy

               Picture taken December 2010                                                   Picture taken October 2011

     

Taffy has a calm and relaxed attitude.  He is shy around people, but he is very curious about them.   Taffy now trusts us enough to eat treats from our hand and will even let us scratch him a little.  He will progress nicely for his adopter when he is worked with on a regular basis.

Please Sponsor Me!!

Spirit was acquired from a neglect situation, so he has not been worked with.  Spirit is very unsure of people, and his training will take longer than most.  He will need an experienced trainer who is able to work with him and is willing to give him the time and the patience to help him learn to trust people.    Please consider sponsoring Spirit, so he can get the training he needs. Until he does, it will be difficult to place him into an adoptive home.

Brown Sugar was born in March of 2008 out of BR70 Cinnamon (See Ponies and Horses 4 yrs and older).  Brown Sugar was rescued from a neglect situation, so she is shy around people. Once she finds a home that can give her daily love and attention, she should learn to trust people.
