Available Horses
Right now, these are the horses and ponies that we have available for adoption.  We are ALWAYS updating our website, so check back often, becuase your next horsie "partner-in-crime" could be waiting here for you!


Glory

Glory

Glory is a 17.0+ hh gray Westphalian (Oldenburg Approved) warmblood mare born in April 1989 (Do NOT stop reading just because of her age... that would just be silly.  She has so much more to give!  Read on about this gem!).  A true athlete in every sense of the word, this horse loves to jump!  She loves to be brushed and babied, and to be treated like the princess she truly is.  She is a powerful and bold horse that will jump whatever you point her at!  Glory has been succesfully shown in the jumper ring.  This big mare is extremely graceful and light on her feet, always making extra effort to clear fences.  She is safe, sane, and sound.  Her confidence is great for the show ring, hunt seat included, and you can take her anywhere and she isn't afraid of anything.  She has been ridden in parades.  She has knowledge of lateral work (leg yields, etc) and is a beautiful dressage horse, she also has automatic lead changes.  Glory has a good disposition and very easily leads, loads, clips, bathes, crossties, bathes, lunges, and stands for the farrier.  She was previously advertised earlier this year for $25,000 (yes, that's with THREE zeros...).  She's still the same horse, but her owner decided that if she couldn't be sold for $25K, that she might as well just donate her.  Yay for us, and yay for the babies that she is going to help save this January!  Considering her age (she is still sound and ridable... and is everything we say above), we felt that her previous price was a little "steep".  Give us a call to try out this mare and get a fancy warmblood for yourself!  Being a gray horse with "some age" on her, she oes have cancer... but she is happy, sound, and ridable, and has many more years left in her!

If you are looking for a horse that is quiet enough to take on trails but still be able to pop over a few jumps at a hunter pace or fun show... here is your girl!

Update! This mare is not for the faint of heart.  Because of her age and health issues, we are only adopting her out to someone to be used as their personal horse.  NO LESSON PROGRAMS, PLEASE!  We want to extend her life as much as possible, and she DESERVES to be someone's true love... and we will not let her go to anyone that won't really really appreciate her graceful wisdom and finesse.

Adoption Fee: $1000

 
Shorty

Card_Clean_2_5-9-2010_057

Shorty is a 20 year old paint (he has a white spot on his belly!) pony gelding.  He stands about 13.2-3 hands tall, and is as quiet as they come.  Not afraid of anything.  He would be great for a family or a small adult, and he would even be good for kids.  He is a little strong for beginners, though, right now, because he hasn't been worked with for awhile.  He could easily be "dialed back into the program" and be a great little western pony.  This little guy loves to neck rein, and is a great little trail horse!

Adoption Fee: $500 negotiable to the perfect home!

 
Dazzle

mt_hope_ponies_rose_paint_jog

Dazzle is a 9-10 year old red roan paint mare.  She is just touching 14 hands tall and is just as pretty as they come.  Loads right up in a trailer!  Broke to ride and drive, she is relaxed and comfortable under saddle.  She is a quick learner ready to do anything you want... from jumping to barrels, this mare could definitely do it all!

Adoption Fee: $800

 
Daisy

mt_hope_ponies_daisy_walk

Daisy is a 9 year old Haflinger mare.  13 hands tall, and 13 hands wide!!  She is well broke to ride and drive and has a quick little step for a Haflinger!  Excellent manners... not spooky at all!  She is a little "happy" for a total beginner, but a kid that can ride should do just fine!  She has a quick little trot... it's not frantic... that's just how she goes!  She is such a doll and wants a home with you.  Do-do a Dollop of DAISY and take her home with you!

Adoption Fee: $1,000

 
Shiraz

mt_hope_ponies_BW_paint_walk

Shiraz (pronounced 'shur-OZ') is a 8 year old black and white paint mare.  She is just the cutest thing and is 13 hands tall.  She is green broke to ride and drive.  She stood well for everything but needs a little reassurance at times (she's frightened).  She has a nice little quiet trot and would be a cute-as-pie pleasure pony!  This dainty little girl is sure to be the "babe of the barn"!

Adoption Fee: $600

 

 
Yoder

mt_hope_ponies_yoder_lunge

mt_hope_ponies_yoder_stand_

mt_hope_ponies_yoder_stand_rider_

Yoder is a 5 year old Haflinger gelding.  He stands 14.2 hands tall, and is broke to drive double and is broke to ride.  He came in with Pleasure, and is from Minnesota!!  Most of his issues are on the ground... he's been beat, so he requires a soft touch to assure him that everything is ok.  I spite of this, though, he is a willing cutie pie with an inquisitive nature!  Don't miss out on this sweet youngun', you'll regret it!

Adoption Fee: $600

 
New Ponies!!

These ponies (Shiraz, Pleasure, Yoder, Daisy, Molly, and Dazzle) are all willing but have been broke by the Amish.  They know how to go in a straight line down the road.  They know nothing of ring work, BUT (and this is a BIG 'but') would never even consider bucking, rearing, or bolting.  They are all good healthy ponies who need someone to train them in a discipline.  Hunter Jumper, trails, barrels, you name it.  Pick one out and start your training.  The training should be relatively 'issue free' due to the "pre-training" programs that they were started in!  All they need is time in the saddle.  Your biggest hurdle will be getting them over the fear of the "hammer" coming down... and rightly so.  Please consider one of these ponies... they are sure to make you famous!!!

 
Stitch

 

fitch_trot

fitch_stand

Stitch is an 11 year old liver chestnut Quarter Horse gelding.  Registered, but no papers.  15.2 hands high.  He has had a traumatic experience in his life and needs some reassurance.  He definitely knows a lot and he has his westen cues down pat!  He needs to be remuscled as he has been standing for months.  His gaits are smooth, he has both leads and is great on trails.

Adoption Fee: TBD

 
My Precision

my_precision_TB_stand

my_precision_TB_stand_2

Precision is a 16.1 hand tall 4 year old bay Thoroughbred gelding.  As far as racing is concerned, though, he couldn't beat a fat man out of a phone booth!  Not given to the frantic pace of race track life he opted for early retirement and the chance at a new career.  He would make a lovely hunter-jumper, a dressage horse, or a 3 day event type horse!  He has a deep girth, lots of bone, and a naturally quiet disposition.  This horse has everything in his corner!

Adoption Fee: $1000

 
Possum

opossum_standing_TB

opossum_TB_standing_look_

opossum_TB_trot_flowers

opossum_TB_walk_look

Possum is a 6 year old TB gelding.  He stands 16.1 hands tall.  He is one of those rare steel grays... He is really holding his color well!  At 6 he hasn't even started to dapple.  My guess is that he will hold his color into his late teens.  He is such a sweet and gentle horse.  He is so easy going that he was even used as a pony horse on the track!  Western tack and all!  This horse is such a gem.  It's like he has an old sould and is just "zen" with the world!  You can make him into what you want... he will gladly give you all he's got and look good doing it!

Adoption Fee: $1,500

 
Carlita

Carlita is a 5 year old bay Paso Fino mare.  She is gaited and is just a doll!  She has had all of her shots, has had her feet trimmed, and is up to date on her worming.  Once we ride her, we will decide what her adoption fee will be, and we will put up pictures and mroe info about her then!

Adoption Fee: TBD
