My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Tommy came into our Rescue through the Standardbred Retirement Foundation together with Cheryl's Dream, Alpine Thunder and Bobby, who passed in summer 2022 of old age.

Tommy is a Standardbred and former pacer racehorse and won his owners quite some money. Because of the stress on his legs from racing he is said to go lame on and off when being worked but should be good for light riding like easy trail rides. Here at the Rescue he has never shown any issues with lameness.

Thunder is incredibly sweet and gentle, he is very mellow and good natured, and like his "siblings" has incredibly good ground manners. Tommy is at the lower end in the herd's hierarchy and gets along with every horse, donkey or goat, as well as cats and dogs, even chickens.

He was born 02/09/2009 in Chesapeake City, MD out of ALLAMERICAN NATIVE -ROOMIE HANOVER - BIG TOWNER.

His adoption is through the Standardbred Retirement Foundation.

Additional adoption info

we want to make sure that the pet and new family are the right fit to avoid the animal being surrendered again or getting passed on. To ensure this we ask questions on lifestyle (if adopter is very active or not), how much they are home, what other animals are in the home/on the property etc. We want to both the animal as well as the adopter be set up for success which is that both sides are happy and their needs are met.

Go meet their pets

Check out our animals on Social Media or meet them at the Rescue Ranch (by appointment only)
