ADOPTED

DONKEY-GELDING-6 YRS OLD

Palmito is a large, handsome standard donkey. He is shy but growing more curious every day. He needs someone patient enough to earn his trust and in return you will get a great donkey who is easy to handle and work around. He will be a great companion for another donkey, mini or pony.

MINI-GELDING-4YRS OLD

Spyder is a super cute gelding who cross ties well and is learning to lead (he freezes when he gets nervous but if you give him a minute, he will walk on with you). He is super cute and really wants to connect—he needs a calm person who will offer him consistency and routine in his life—even if it’s just a short walk each day. He would do best with an adult or older calm, patient child. He will be a wonderful addition to any barn!

PONY-GENDING-20 YRS OLD

This sweet senior gelding is a real life teddy bear! He is gentle and kind--gets along well with other horses big and small. He would be great for beginner leadline rides or for an intermediate rider that just wants to putz around. He is calm and steady and is an easy keeper. He will be a great addition to any farm!

DONKEY-JENNY-15 YRS OLD

This beautiful chocolate colored Jenny is about as cute as they come! She is friendly and kind and gets along well with other donkeys and horses. She leads well and is good for the trimmer and vet. We should note if you are interested in adopting a donkey from us there needs to be at least one other donkey, it's very important for them to have someone who "speaks their language" for them to really be happy.

STANDARDBRED-GELDING-13 YRS. OLD

Jimmy truly is a gentle giant! He is kind and gentle to all creatures he’s lived with (horses, mini’s goats, pigs) and has a puppy dog personality—he aims to please and be loved as much as he can! He is being adopted as a companion only—He had a career in Harness Racing and post-racing became an Amish buggy horse where he sustained an accident that left him unrideable. He is pasture sound and it’s time for him to be able to enjoy the next chapter in his life as a companion. He is great for the vet and trimmer, cross ties to be groomed and is a pleasure to be and work around on the ground. He would do well in horse agility. He would do best in a run in with electric fencing, so he doesn’t crib. Once you meet him, he will melt your heart!

THOROUGHBRED-GELDING-20YRS OLD

Saratoga is a sweet gelding who is ready for a home of his own! He has good ground manners and does well in both a stall or paddock alone or with another gelding (he gets anxious/worried when there are mares with him or sharing the fence line with him). He would be a fun horse for an older kid/teen to play around on or an adult to enjoy! He goes out on trails alone or in company and doesn’t spook at anything! 

MARY MINI-MARE-YRS OLD

‘Mini Mary’ was rescued from a North Caroline killpen. She had lost a foal during her time at the auction, and clearly had some rough past experiences with people. After a lot of time and patience, Mary has finally turned a corner. She is currently at Horses with Hope in Maine and they had a lot of success using clicker training, to bridge the gap in overcoming Mary’s fear of people. Though still timid, Mary will now allow a handler to walk up and halter her, and will stand quietly to be brushed. Mary loves talking nature walks with her handler, and was very brave to receive her first bath recently! She also will now stand to have her feet trimmed by the farrier as well. The more we spend time with Mary, the more this sweet little mare steals our hearts. Mary still has a ways to go, but her personality is finally starting to shine through, and her trust in people has improved by leaps and bounds. She is ready for a home that will take their time and continue to build trust with her.

This super cute mini came to GER very guarded with a locking stifle. We had his stifle fixed and now he is ready for a home of his own!

He would love a family with children to lead him around and will make a great companion for your horse or mini’s. 

PONY-GELDING-17 YRS OLD-12.3 HH

Chipper is a 17-year-old pony gelding who is calm and levelheaded. He can be forward (but safe) when ridden and would do best with a small adult/confident older child. He has been in a therapeutic riding program and has gone out on trails there as well. He is a fun pony! We are looking for a single-family home for him-- not a lesson program. He is longing for a person of his own to connect with and let his guard down.

DONKEY-MARE- 1 1/2 YR. OLD- HH Baby Bridgette is a one and a half-year-old donkey who arrived from a direct ship killpen in PA with her mother Penelope. Bridgette arrived very sick after having been in the slaughter pipeline but is now 100% healthy! She has had her dental done and feet trimmed, and she is an absolute doll in every way. Her mom, Penelope, arrives terrified and you could not get near here. Donkeys typically never forget any experience they have had whether good or bad. I am sure having gone through the slaughter pipeline and protecting her baby the best she could had to have been exhausting and scary for her.  She is SO much better now; she comes up to you for treats and allows you to pet her head.  She will be great but needs someone with patience and who will not demand anything of her until she learns to trust. She is totally worth the wait! We are hoping to keep mother and daughter together.

HINNY-GELDING-15YRS. OLD-13HH
