Adoption Policies

     Rehoming an animal destined for despair and suffering is a very rewarding experience. Often the adopter is rewarded with relief, trust and loving enthusiasm. Animals know and feel much more than we generally give them credit for.  Science is catching up with our own intuitive knowledge of our animals capabilities.   Sometimes these good results can take time; just as with people.   Horses that have been stressed, worried or abused often need a period to "detox."   They need to become "sure of you" in a way that allows them to relax and become invested in their new life.

     Our adoption policies reflect our commitment to these animals and a respect for all the community time, money and love that went into making their new lives possible.  As long as slaughter and animal abuse are practiced; we feel the need to be vigilant. Please read our Adoption Application to begin the process of adopting an equine and our Adoption Contract for our stipulations concerning the care and use of horses rehomed through SAFER.
