Jackson

Jackson is 7 1/2 years old. He is a beautiful Saddlebred. Approximately 16 hands tall. He is a very curious horse that is the first one that comes up to you when you call. He dances a little for the farrier but that is his personality. He loads easy and is an easy keeper. He can be a little pushy. He has been on many trail rides and overnight camping trips. He likes to ride. He is good on trails. When he doesn't know what something is he will stand by it or watch it and will go through it or by it. He does need an intermediate rider. He has a lot of energy. He plays hard sometimes with people, he sometimes will play but can bite as a part of his play. He is a fun horse with a lot of personality. He was in the middle of our herd. Not top and not bottom.

Well thanks to our volunteer, Amy (a high school student who loves to ride), we were able to saddle up and Amy rode Chevie on Saturday. Chevie is such a sweet horse. He stands rock solid when you go to put the saddle on - won't twitch a muscle. He is so very smart. Amy got on him in the small turnout first, with no issue. She then took him to the indoor arena and the round pen and he did well. He was calling out for his mares, of course, but still was obedient. She was last riding him in the large turnout area (about one acre) and he had the most stunning run-walk I have seen since Star Cheetah was here! It was beautiful to watch and, Amy reports, wonderful to ride! We are hoping now that he is going to have some time under saddle that he will find a home soon. Susan

Missile Mike

(from foster home) He's pretty good on it but Dondi warned us that no one over 150 lbs should ride him. My farrier echoed that too, it would put too much stress on it. We have his brace that goes on it. He also hasn't been ridden. He much more confident with women to men and he absolutely loves kids. If he sees children he will walk right to the fence and put his head over for them to pet him. He came right up to a very autistic boy that came for therapy riding 2 weeks ago.

back in program. Currently in Illinois

Jumbo Shrimp

Hi everybody!!! My registered name is Jumbo Shrimp, but since that's kind of a funny name for a horse, you can call me Bella (or Shrimpy!) I am a brown/black bay Standardbred, and I'm a 23-year-old grandma. I stand at 15.3 hands, so I'm pretty tall for a grandma!!! I was born in New Jersey (I wonder how I wound up in Wisconsin!) ~ my dad was Direct Scooter and my mom was Gotta Headache. I raced as a pacer during 1989-1993, and had lifetime winnings of $48,638. I have had 10 registered Standardbred foals, of which 9 were raced. My babies have had total winnings of $565,557. I'm so proud of them! When I turned the grand age of 20, I got to be a pasture pet and have been used very lightly on trails. My original person had some financial and divorce difficulties, and so I came to be part of the ASAP program. I now live with my foster person near Baraboo, WI. I am a sweet old gal and I'm hoping I can find a family who will let me continue to be a pasture pet, or maybe even your best friend. I can be ridden lightly, but please don't make me work too hard ~ it wouldn't be good for me to be ridden extensively. Since I'm a grandma, I would like to be fed separately from other horses if they get too bossy with me, and I would like to have senior horse feed. My foster person thinks I might need some supplements for arthritis, but she is not sure since this is my first winter with her. I was really happy when I got a good hoof trim, and I don't have any signs of lameness. In the summertime, please make sure I have shade to stand or lay under.

Tender Tidbit: I feel that I have had a very honorable career, and I would love to have a human companion to call my very own ~ someone to love me and spoil me in my golden years. I have a lot of love to give back, too. Guess what ~ my adoption fee will be waived, if the right person finds me and wants to love me!!! That's pretty neat!!! I hope there is someone out there who will come to see me and want to take me home!!! :)

Anxious Larry (14yr)

Larry has had 30 days of professional training. He has been on trail rides. He enjoy trail riding and doesn't spook. He is not for a beginning rider but an intermediate to experienced rider would do well on him. Larry can be dominant in a herd. A very beautiful horse that is very easy to be around. He is an easy keeper, loads, does well for farrier.

Betty's Nightmare

Hello!!! My name is Betty's Nightmare! I know, I know ~ that's kind of a silly name, but everyone calls me Betty, and I'm really not a Nightmare at all!! I am a 3rd dam to Night's Dream, and that's how I got this name. I'm 15 years young, and also about 15 hands high. I am a black mare, and quite pretty, if I do say so myself! When I was young I was a pacer and I lived with Larry Goins in Indiana. I have lived with my foster person for many years, but sadly she has developed some bad allergies and asthma, and I need to find a different home. I haven't been ridden very much, but I have let children be led around on my back. I don't like to go into the woods, though ~ it seems like such a scary place! I am broke to drive, because of my background. Sometimes I am really sensitive and am not sure about being touched, but when I'm in a happy mood I love to have attention. I do know my commands, and when my person spends time with me I am very well-behaved. I need to have a person who will understand my moods and be patient with me. A couple of years ago I had some problems with one of my hooves. My person was very good about treating me and having a farrier work with me. It took a long time, but my hoof is getting better now and only needs more growing out under the nail. At least I am no longer lame! I am really good with the farrier and see him on a regular basis. Last fall my pasture buddy found a new home and I am lonely without her, and sometimes sad. I would love to have a person of my own who would love me and work with me and bring out the best in me. Is there anybody out there who would like to take me home? It would make me so happy!!

Tender Tidbit: Even though I might sometimes appear to be aloof, I am really just sad without my buddy. When my foster person comes out to see me, she always calls to me "Hello Miss Betty" and I give her a big purr in response. So you see, I really do know my name and I want to have a person I can call my own. My adoption fee is only $100. Thanks for reading about me and I hope I will find a new forever home real soon!!!

Wildfire (3yr)

Filly. Pony. 8.3HH. White with brown speckles. Wildfire is halter broke and has a nice trot. She would be a great little cart pony. Current owner states, "She has a lovely, animated trot - a flashy pony once rid of her winter coat - she is white with brown "Arabian speckles" and large expressive eyes. Wildfire was WILD when she came and is wary of strangers but surprised me by bumping me lightly with her nose the other day - asking for a treat - so she is learning to trust despite not getting a lot of attention. She has a condition which the vet couldn't diagnose with the equipment he has. We are guessing it might be something like cleft palate in humans. We considered taking her to Madison to have her scoped to confirm or deny that - but since she is in good health and thriving - decided not to put her through the stress. She does best on dry feed - such as hay - and is an "easy keeper" as long as she has plenty of fresh water and some hay. She can eat grass, though it causes green discharge to run from her nose and in turn colors her coat green anywhere she touches herself with her muzzle. When she is fed hay that doesn't happen. Her feet are good and her attitude is curious and alert. She doesn't bully other animals. It is a shame that a young animal with her "weather vane horse" trot should spend her days loafing around the pasture. It would be wonderful if there was someone out there - perhaps someone who loves horses but is no longer able to ride or interested in riding, who has the experience and the time to teach this little lady to pull a small cart. As frightened as she was when she came flying out of the trailer on the first day she was here, and as horrified as she was about the process of washing off all the layers of mud, dirt and manure that first couple of days (not a big fan of bathing) she has never kicked or bitten. A little hay, a lot of fresh clean water to wash it down, some minerals and routine health care have kept her healthy here. I don't foresee her condition getting worse - she has seemed to thrive on the diet she is eating - but I couldn't guarantee that she would never have a problem." Please call for more details on Wildfire.
