Adopt An Ex-racehorse

Why you should rescue a horse or racehorse?  Well check out the below stories and you will be amazed at what these off-the-track TB's can do!  I have had one and they are great hunters, jumpers, and eventers (over 24 OTTBs have shown in the Rolex)!  There are plenty of wonderful, affordable horses out there that need homes please consider before breeding.

Of course I have to add in my horse, Golden Child, adopted from MidAtlantic Horse Rescue.  He did the hunters, 4th place Equitation Year End VHSA.  First Level Rocky Mt Dressage Championships Qualifier and now teaches lessons at Triple Creek Ranch!

Megan Donahoe on Pirate just made their first Rolex appearance this year.  I was there and stunned by how great a pair these two were!  Read More

Now the tricky part...where do you find the good ones?  Below are a couple sites, including one I purchased by TB from.  Hint:  Most of the good TBs are found in Kentucky and East of Kentucky.  The below links will adopt out to other states.  Typically you have to provide references as well as photos of where you will be keeping the horse.
