HORSES IN QUARANTINE-REHAB-TRAINING

Please note these horses are not up for adoption yet, but check back frequently! Please consider a donation to assist with their care

Dixie

Dixie

Dixie, 21 years old, and a 15 hand, Warmblood Cross has returned to VEWS after her recent adoption wasn't a good fit. Dixie was scoped a couple weeks ago and diagnosed with ulcers which are being treated now. Dixie will have time to complete her treatment and settle back in before we reassess her under saddle. Previously, we rode Dixie with halter and lead rope with no issues. Dixie had her right eye removed several years ago but she is not spooky, reactive or flighty. An intelligent mare, she will be searching for her person...and did we mention her gorgeous frosted coloring? Stay tuned!

Firefly

Firefly

Update: Dec 4. Firefly successfully completed 3 months of under saddle training with one of our training partners and is now settling in with our friends at Equine Welfare Society for additional work. Firefly is an intelligent mare with a lot of heart who bonds with her rider.

Firefly, like her buddy Helena, is an OTTB who arrived at VEWS July 2 through our partnership with ACT.

Registered as Zupita, this OTTB is 5 years old and stands 16H. She last raced in April 2024 and retired off the track sound. Please stay tuned as she continues her journey toward a forever home.

Pearl

Pearl

This cute Tennessee Walking Horse Cross mare has that beautiful palomino color that so many love! Pearl arrived with her buddies JoJo and Frankie on Nov 24, so she is still learning the VEWS routine and adjusting to her new environment. Pearl handles well on the ground and stands nicely for blanketing. She is 15H and a sweetie. We'll be learning more about her and her friends, so please stay tuned.

JoJo

JoJo

Look at this gorgeous Warmblood cross with red roan Appy coloring! JoJo arrived with her pals Pearl and Frankie as owner surrenders on Nov 24, so we are still allowing them time to adjust. JoJo is a kind mare who stands nicely for grooming and blanketing. JoJo stands 15.3 and is a pleasure to work with. Stay tuned as we learn more about this beautiful mare.
