ADOPTED

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!

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!

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.

MINI-GELDING-5 YRS OLD

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.

This lovely mare had been through a lot before we rescued her from a killpen.  Unbeknownst to us, she had a birthing that had gone awry and left her with some severe damage.  Once in our care, she had a successful surgery! She and Misha were adopted in a home together but were recently were returned due to a divorce.  Melody has participated in a Christmas parade in our town and actually seemed to really enjoy it!  A home with an intermediate rider is preferable as she has not been ridden in her previous home and will need a refresher.

PONY-MARE-10 YRS. OLD-14.2HH

She is a treasure!

This super handsome, sweet mini is ready for a home! He has a hind leg issue but has learned to live with it and it does not appear to cause him pain.

This handsome Standardbred would love a home as a husband horse with light trail riding!  He goes out alone or with a partner and gets along with mares and geldings. He is very fond of men in particular!  After his cart racing career, he became an Amish buggy horse and ended up in auction when he could not keep up with the demands of a cart horse. He is very handsome and is deserving of a great home.

MINI-GELDING-8 YRS. OLD Our mini Tux was an Amish pulling pony and our expert driving trainer, Herb Trombly, was so impressed with him! He knows all his commands and appears to love the work.

He is calm and gentle with kids too!

STANDARDBRED-GELDING- 17 YRS. OLD-15.1HH 

Chesterfield is a super sweet, easy going pacer. He does w/t/c and needs a confident rider who will be comfortable with his big stride. He goes out on trails alone or in a group and gets along well with both geldings and mares. He loves children and will soak in all the love and attention they will give him around the barn but is not a child’s riding horse at this point in his life. He is a puppy dog on the ground and is looking for someone to bond with.

ARABIAN-MARE-20 YO-15HH

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.  

MINI-MARES- 10-12 YRS. OLD- 34" This bonded pair of mini mares came from a private home; we will not separate them. They are both beautiful despite their furry winter coats. They are not in their teens yet and could be taught to becoming a wonderful driving team.
