Not all rescues are suitable for adoption

Sometimes horses saved from termination, do NOT always make great adoptees. They need a different purpose. They need a safe haven, but inside they still possess valuable potential to make humans whole.

Two such mustangs came from the Nevada Virginia Range. Apache is a gelded horse who very much thinks he’s a stallion and will hurl himself through barbwire fencing if feed or breeding seems opportunistic. His pasture mate, Asha, is a fiery red-head mustang mare that bosses the so-called stallion around keeping him in place. These two mustangs are iconic examples of horses who need another function other than euthanasia. Since we rescued them, they have shown a willingness to participate in our Equine Facilitated Coaching Sessions, but lack a willingness to bond enough to place them in forever adoption homes.
