Here's what the humans have to say about me:
CARE is putting on a show to raise funds for our rescue horses! The CARE Benefit Horse Show will be at Rounds Ranch Arena in Bradley, SC, on July 15th, 2017. Our adoptable horses will be showcased, and your horses are invited to participate! We will be raffling off a football autographed by Dabo Swinney, head coach of the Clemson Tigers. More information about the show, the classes, times, and awards can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/events/490767607923824/
Check Holly out here: https://www.facebook.com/Finding-a-Home-for-My-Girl-Holly-156557291437135/
My Girl Holly is ready for a home! She's a beautiful 16.3 hand mare. She was born in 2002, lightly raced, and then went through multiple homes including several where she was neglected. Since arriving in our rescue a year ago, Holly has gained weight, grown healthy hooves, and been restarted under saddle.
Holly has been ridden in an arena and on trails and she rides English and Western. She knows extensive groundwork (lunging, sidepass, forequarters, hindquarters) and has good ground manners leading, loading, good handling, etc. We have videos of walk/trot/canter under saddle which you can see on Facebook. Holly has a great walk and trot but sometimes has difficulty getting the correct lead on the rear. This isn't an issue on trail rides but may make her harder to show successfully. Holly does need some joint maintenance if in heavy work so we are currently focusing more on trails for her. She does not spook easily, will ride alone or with other horses, and crosses water well.
Holly is available for free lease with the option to adopt for $500 after one year, assuming you have maintained her vet care and kept her in good body condition / well fed. Holly can be seen and ridden in Greenwood SC. To meet her, just send in an adoption application (no obligation to actually adopt just for sending in the application) and we will get a time set up for you to ride her!
Our rescue is in Seneca SC. Our horses are current on basic vaccines, dentistry, hoof care, Coggins, and are microchipped.
To be considered for adopting Holly, go to www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org and fill out an adoption application. This doesn't obligate you to adopt, it just gets you approved so that we can have you meet and ride Holly. If you don't hear from us within 2 business days of sending in an application, then call us at 864-972-9994 or email drkathyjordan@yahoo.com. You can also email with any questions about Holly.
Holly will sell with a no breeding contract.
Our horses have received their basic vaccinations (Rabies vaccine, EWT combo vaccine) at the time of adoption. They have been dewormed and have a negative Coggins test as well. All horses have received a hoof assessment and trimming. Horses are also microchipped.
We do our best to determine what amount of training they have had and to represent them as accurately as possible. However, we usually do not know the history of our horses, so we determine training by how the horses act after we get them. Please call ahead or email to set up a time to meet our horses if you are interested in adopting. They are at foster homes so we may need up to a couple days notice in order to schedule a time for you to see them.
We desire for our horses to find a good home where the horse will be a good fit with the person adoption him/her. With that goal in mind, we do our best to accurately represent everything, good and bad, with our horses.
CARE provides one week free boarding until you can pick up your new horse. Adoption fees are sometimes negotiable to the right home. For more information, please email us at crossroadsanimalrescuesc@gmail.com. You can see our adoption applications and and more info about our rescue on our website, www.crossroadsanimalrescue.org. To make the adoption process faster, please submit an adoption application through our website. This in no way obligates you - it simply gets you approved to meet/adopt our horses. You can also call us at 864-972-9994.
