Society for Hooved Animal's Rescue and Emergency

Adoption Requirements 1. You must live in Illinois or close neighboring state. 2. Prefer that you own the property where the horse will be kept; however we frequently adopt horses out to people who board. 3. Must provide a letter of recommendation from your veterinarian and one from your farrier if you are now a horse owner. If you do not have a farrier, a letter from another person will suffice. 4. You must visit the horse to see if you are a match with the particular horse you wish to adopt. 5. We will visit your facility to see the facility and your animals. 6. If you continue with the adoption, you will be required to pay an adoption fee which is set by the board of directors for each animal. We will continue to inspect the animal for two years. 7. If at any time the animal is not being properly cared for SHARE has the right to seize the animal. 8. You are NEVER allowed to sell the animal to slaughter. We ALWAYS have first right of refusal if you decide not to keep the animal. 9. You must keep the animal for at least two years or it reverts to SHARE. Adoption Fees: Adoption Fees vary from animal to animal depending on the skill sets of each individual horse, starting at about $450.00 dollars. Each individual animal will have the adoption fee posted on it's profile, or view our website!
