Bio: Contessa was removed from a negligent owner and placed with BEHS by an animal control officer.

History: : When Contessa was removed from her negligent owner, she went straight to a vet to have a halter removed from her head. It was put on her when she was young, left on her and had grown into her skin. She may have some scars from the halter, but otherwise it should not bother her. Nothing else is known of her history before she came to BEHS.

Health/Lameness: None known.

Abilities: Contessa is just a baby and still growing. She’s a fine age to do some ground work, and in a few years she’ll be old enough to start under saddle.

About Our Rescue Group...
Our mission is to improve the lives of equines by educating and helping owners, assisting law enforcement agencies, rehabilitating abused and neglected equines, and placing them into safe, permanent homes.
Our Adoption Process...
Bluebonnet provides a description of how the horse has behaved with other horses as well as when handled by humans. Bluebonnet foster homes evaluate the horse's training level to the best of their abilities.
Bluebonnet provides a history of the horse including where he came from, vet care while in the rescue, behavior while in the rescue, etc.
All Bluebonnet horses have received the following vaccinations within the past twelve months: West Nile Virus, Flu, Rhino, Rabies, Tetanus, Sleeping Sicknesses.
All Bluebonnet horses have a current, negative Coggins.
All Bluebonnet horses have had their teeth checked in the past twelve months and any recommended dental work has been completed.
All Bluebonnet horses are on a current de-worming and farrier program.
If your Bluebonnet horse does not work out for any reason, you will get a refund of your adoption fee if you return him or her in the first 30 days and a partial refund if you return him within the first year.
If you cannot keep your adopted horse, Bluebonnet will find him a new home where you can rest assured that someone will love him as much as you do.
Bluebonnet is available as a resource for all adopted horses for the remainder of their lives.

Adoption Checklist

After BEHS receives a complete application, we will contact you to schedule a pre-adoption inspection. During the inspection, a BEHS volunteer will visit your property or the barn where you will be keeping your adopted equine. She can answer your questions about the adoption process and the organization, and will be taking a few photos and filling out some paperwork so we can ensure the home is safe – the care and comfort of our equines is our first priority
