Jade



Barn Name: Jade

Breed: Thoroughbred
Height: 15.3hh
Age: 5 y/o
Gender: Mare
Colour: Bay

Health: Underweight, But Gaining Daily, Appears Excellent Otherwise
Lameness: We have found that she is not 100% sound in her front right ankle, likely a racing related injury, we hope to get xrays done soon to see if it is something serious, or something that can easily be repaired

Vices: None
Personality: Friendly. Easy to Catch, Lead, Groom, Trim, etc. Good with Other Horses, Ponies & Donkeys .

History/Training: Racing (she is tattoed), Purchased From Auction

Future/Suitability: We hope to try her out under saddle this weekend, and will update you on how much she knows and what she may be suitable for. UPDATE: well, we have attempted to ride her twice, with no success. she has obviously had something terrible happen to her in the past as she became a completely different horse when we tried to get on her. she is always very sweet to handle and to groom, etc - she never pins her ears or tries to kick. well that all changed when we tried to get on, she began to bite, kick, rear, strike, etc etc. she was good to tack up each time, other than being a little bit girthy. but she is defintely not safe to ride. if someone does want to ride her they will need to start over with her right from scratch. Otherwise she will be suitable as a companion/pet only or possibly a broodmare as long as she is bred to a good quality reg'd stallion, and not be bred over and over again year after year.

Adoption Fee/Purchase Price: $1000. Pre-Summer Sale - If You Adopt Jade (Upon Approval of Application), Pay for Her in Full and Take Her Home On/Before May 25, 2008 - We Will Reduce Her Adoption Fee Down to $500 !!

WE CAN'T HELP MORE HORSES UNTIL WE FIND HOMES FOR THE ONES THAT ARE HERE - SO IF YOU HAVE AN EMPTY STALL OR SHELTER SPACE, EXTRA FEED AND LOTS OF LOVE PLEASE CONSIDER ADOPTING JADE

Current Status: Located at HCW in Cameron, ON - Available for Adoption/Sale or Fostering/Free Lease (Until Adopted). If you have any questions about Jade and/or would like to make arrangements to see her, please email Claire at HCWEquineRescue@sympatico.ca

SPONSORS NEEDED!!!: If you would like to help Jade, but are not able to Adopt or Foster her at this time perhaps you would be interested in Sponsoring her by helping to cover the costs of (or a portion of) her daily care - such as her Hay, Purina High Fat High Fibre Pellets, Finishing Touch Supplement, Vet, Blacksmith, De-Worming, Over the Fence Feeder, Blue Salt Block, Treats, Horse/Full Size Halter, Horse/Full Size Fly Mask, Brushes, Lead Rope, etc. If you would like to help in any way, please email Claire at HCW for details. HCWEquineRescue@sympatico.ca Thanks!!

I will get some better pix after she has finished shedding her winter coat, and after the muddy ground has dried up!!
