This will cost an estimated:

$30 for the farrier $50 for the vet $40 for shots Making our total minimum investment per horse: $590.00

Our adoption fees are based on this figure, but you cannot get your money totally back out of each baby. We plan on setting our fees at $400 per foal.

For horses other than the foals that we rescue, the fees will also be based on our investment in them.

Our goal is to provide these horses with a loving home not make money. That is why the fees are set at a reasonable price so that people can afford to adopt a good horse and give it the love that it needs.

All of these horses deserve a good home. We have an application process to screen potential homes so that we can try to find the best homes possible. We also have a “check up” process, where we will be checking up on the horses from time to time during their first two years at a new home.
