Bruce came to us from Garrett County in early 2007. He was thin and had overgrown, chipped hooves. Bruce was very nervous upon arrival to us and did not have a lot of trust in humans. We suspect that someone was possibly very rough with him at some point in his life. Bruce was adopted out, but returned last year due to a behavioral issue of randomly kicking out. We were unable to find the cause of his issue, but found that the more he was worked and given a job, the better he became. His issue is now almost completely resolved and he has turned into quite a lover. He ties for feed, is well-behaved in the herd, and is good for the farrier. Bruce is a joy to ride and is currently going w/t/c and over fences. He has been off-site for trail rides, clinics, shows, and fairs, and he's done wonderfully at all of them. He is still a little green and can be somewhat forward under saddle, so an upper-intermediate to advanced rider is recommended. Bruce requires an advanced handler. Due to his history, our requirements for the type of home we will allow him to go to will be strictly upheld. His adopter must be experienced in handling and training horses that need time and patience due to trust issues. His adopter must also intend to give him a job. Bruce does best when ridden and worked with almost every day of the week and that will be something that we will look for in his future home. This boy is unlimited in what he could do and will take his adopter all the way to the ribbons. Once this boy bonds with you, he gives you his all. He's full of try and does his best to please. He's super-sweet, but has just had a rough past. Can you give him a bright and happy future?

Fruit came to us in October 2008 as a neglect case, suffering from malnourishment, overgrown hooves, and a severe case of mastitis. Her infection had left her extremely painful. We immediately weaned her from her foal and placed her on antibiotics, afterwhich she quickly recovered. She is now fully rehabilitated and ready to find a home. We have evaluated her under saddle and found that she basically needs to be restarted under saddle. She accepted a rider, but could not grasp the concept of moving forward, so we're starting from square one. She has been worked in the round pen and our trainer is now working on long-lining her, with the hopes of getting on her back again soon. Fruit need an intermediate handler, as she can sometimes be a little skittish, and an advanced rider since she is so green. We'll be updating her description and adoption fee as her training progresses.

Fugi came to us in December '06 as a four month old filly in our group of 24 from Washington County. Even though she was not yet weaned from her mother, she was severely emaciated and riddled with parasites. Over a year ago, Fugi went into off-site foster care where she could receive handling and training on a more consistent basis in order to prep her for under saddle training. She is now ready to start receiving that training, and has therefore returned to DEFHR. Fugi ties for feed, is good for the vet and farrier, and loves to be groomed. This girl is sensitive and would respond well to someone with a slow, quiet, and patient training technique. Her mother, Deja, turned into a very sweet, lovely mare, and Fugi looks like she is definitely following her in footsteps. Check Fugi out today. Her adoption fee will increase as she receives more training.

Gracie came in from Montgomery County in October 2008 with four other horses. She was ribby, but not in horrible shape, as she was still nursing off of her mother. Gracie is now a year old and ready for a new home. She has been introduced into our older mare herd and is learning the ins-and-outs of horse herd dynamics. Gracie leads, loves to be groomed and pampered, and is good for the farrier. We are requiring that Gracie go to an adopter who has advanced horse handling skills. They must have experience with raising and training young horses or they must have a professional trainer who will train for them. This girl is going to be drop-dead gorgeous, so snatch her up while you can!

Javie arrived as a starvation and neglect case from Montgomery County Animal Control in the beginning of 2008 with a Body Condition Score of 1 out of 9 and neglected teeth and hooves (she had 2 of her 4 shoes from the track still attached to her feet). Javie is very well-behaved under saddle and is going w/t/c and over fences. She should make a great horse for an intermediate rider of any discipline. Javie attended many shows and events this past Spring and Summer and won several ribbons. She'd make an excellent show horse for someone. Javie has been evaluated on the trail and we found her to be somewhat forward, but solid. Javie cribs, which is best managed with full turnout.

Kadillac came to us from Montgomery County at the end of May 2009 with Lexus. He was a Body Conditon Score of 1 out of 9, had rainrot, and his hooves were severely overgrown with rotation of the coffin bone in his left front. Kadillac made a slow and steady recovery and he has now been introduced to our gelding herd and evaluated under saddle. He gets along well in the herd and doesn't cause any trouble - he is good with mares and geldings. On the ground, Kadillac is easy to work with and he knows his manners. He is good for the vet, farrier, baths, and grooming. Under saddle, Kadillac would be suitable for an intermediate rider. Although he has slight rotation in his left front coffin bone, he has been sound for riding w/t/c and is able to go barefoot. He was evaluated on the trail and did perfectly. This boy is a really nice guy.

Kettle came to us in October 2008 as an impound from West Virginia. Kettle scored as a 1.5 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale and had overgrown hooves and rainrot. Kettle made a speedy recovery and was just recently castrated in the beginning of August, after we received custody of him. He will need to be kept with geldings only, as he is quite feisty. Advanced handler. Stay tuned for updates!

Update (9/11/09): Kettle is now in off-site training, after which he will either be adopted or returned to DEFHR with under saddle training.

Luna came to us in the Fall of 2008 from West Virginia as a starvation case. She was a score of 2 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale and had overgrown feet. She has since made a full recovery and is ready to find her new home. Luna ties for feed and is good for the farrier. She requires an advanced beginner to intermediate handler, as she can be a little feisty. We plan on evaluating her under saddle to see if she knows anything. She'd make a cute leadline pony if she does! Luna would make a good companion for another pony or horse and is good with both mares and geldings.

Muddy was only 4 months old when he came to DEFHR in December '06. Extremely malnourished and sickly, he had to spend a week at the vet clinic, getting round-the-clock care and fluids, before being strong enough to come to Days End. Over a year ago, a previous adopter offered to take he and ZuZu to her home to give them individualized care and training until they were old enough to return to DEFHR to be broke under saddle and adopted. Muddy is almost three years old and will start his under saddle training soon. He is a sweet boy with lots of spunk and personality. He gets along well with other horses and should make an excellent riding pony. His adoption fee will increase once he is started under saddle and his training progresses.

NaNu came to us the first week of December '08 as a starvation and neglect case from Prince George's County. He ranked as a 2 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale and had overgrown feet. He was apparently kicked in the face as a foal, which resulted in a fluid-filled sac in the corner of his right eye. He has been castrated, his eye growth removed, and he is now out with our gelding herd. NaNu left for off-site training for a couple of months, but is now back and doing great. He is now going w/t/c under saddle and, though still very green, he is coming along beautifully. He's very quiet both on the ground and under saddle and should make a great pony for anyone once he gains some more miles. NaNu ties for feed, is good for the vet and farrier, and is barefoot. He has been ridden in an open field and was perfect - we hope to evaluate him on the trail soon. NaNu requires an advanced beginner handler and an upper intermediate rider until he is more experienced under saddle. Check this lovely boy out - he's a keeper!

Olive came to us the first week of December '08 as a starvation and neglect case from Prince George's County and ranked a 1 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale. She had long feet, rainrot, and her teeth needed floating.Olive has now made a full recovery and is now in training. She suffered a splint bone injury a few months back, but is now completely recovered and back into work. She goes at the w/t/c and has started over small fences. Olive ties for feed and grooming and loves baths. Olive requires an intermediate handler on the ground and upper intermediate rider, as she is still young and green. Olive is currently barefoot, but would need front shoes if put into more intense work. She has the beautiful movement and flashiness to get you noticed in the show ring! Ask about her today!

Pogo is the baby of one of the Washington County Humane Society mares impounded in December of '06 and rehabilitated by the Washington County Humane Society. He was on the verge of death when he was born and mom rejected him, so he was taken to the vet where he stayed for one month while he slowly returned to good health. Pogo came to Days End a month later and where he immediately showed his personality! He ran around his paddock and jumped and played, so we decided to name him after what he resembled...a pogo stick! This little guy is full of spunk and energy! He ties for feed and grooming and is learning to have his feet handled. He does have a bit of mischievousness in him, so he'd be best suited for an experienced handler. Pogo must go to a home with someone who has experience raising and training young horses.

Qutie arrived from Prince George's County Animal Control as a neglect case in early summer '06. She needed work on ground manners but made a quick recovery. She was evaluated under saddle at the beginning of last year and we determined that she was track-broke and green, but had a lot of eagerness to please. A couple weeks into her re-schooling, she suffered a kick to the elbow in the field. X-rays revealed a small hairline fracture and she was on stall and paddock rest for over a year. She is now recovered, back out in the field, and back into work. She is going w/t/c under saddle and has been doing great! We've even hopped her over a couple small fences and she really enjoyed herself! She's remained sound and loves racing around her field, so we feel very optimistic about her future. Qutie definitely lives up to her name - inquire about her today!

Roulette came to us from PG County Animal Control in the summer of '06 as a starvation case. Though she was skin and bones and covered in rainrot, we could tell she was going to turn into a beautiful mare...and we were right! This big girl requires a strong intermediate handler on the ground - she's very sweet, but she knows she's big and can be somewhat pushy. Her size, conformation, and movement make her an excellent training level dressage prospect. She needs an advanced rider, as she does have quite a bit of get-up-and-go when she's feeling particularly frisky! Roulette has an old, healed bowed tendon, which does not impede on her soundness, but does limit her jumping potential. We have popped her over a few tiny fences occasionally, which she handled with ease, but her jumping should be kept to a minimum. She cribs, but it is controlled with a cribbing collar and full turnout. Roulette has been to several off-site events and shows, at which she was beautifully behaved. If you're looking for success in the show ring, this girl's a head-turner.

Turvey arrived with 23 other horses in December '06 from Washington County. He was feral and had no trust in humans. With time and love, he came around and soon learned to trust people. He learned to stand for the farrier and tie for feed and grooming. Turvey recently returned from off-site training. He received training on the ground until he was old enough to be broke under saddle. He now goes w/t/c and over fences under saddle, but needs a strong, confident rider to continue to bring him forward in his training. Turvey would be great for someone with experience in handling and riding young, green horses. He'd make a great pony for any discipline. Intermediate handler, advanced rider due to being green. Stay tuned for more updates!

Twilight arrived to us on September 21, 2009 as a starvation and neglect case from Kent County. She ranks at a 2.5 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale, has overgrown, abscessing feet, and severe fungal infection of the skin from head to toe. She has now made a full recovery and we are starting to evaluate and train her under saddle. She has accepted a rider on her back, but we are still trying to determine the extent of the training she received prior to her arrival with us. She is a sweet mare to work with on the ground. She ties for feed and grooming, and is good for baths, the vet and farrier. Her adoption fee will increase as she receives more training.

Whitney arrived to us in December '06 as a 6 month old along with 23 other horses from Washington County. She was emaciated, infested with parasites, and feral. She made a speedy and complete recovery and learned to trust humans quite quickly. She was adopted last year, but had to be returned recently due to financial issues. Whitney had just started receiving training at her previous home, but we have decided to go back and start her from square one to be sure she receives good, solid experience under saddle. Her adoption fee will increase as she receives more training. Stay tuned for more updates.

ZuZu arrived to DEFHR in December '06 with 23 other horses from Washington County. He was 6 months old at the time and was still at his mother's side. He was not used to humans, so we immediately weaned him from mom and started the process of gaining his trust. ZuZu picked things up like a champ and soon became quite a social butterfly. Over a year ago, a previous adopter offered to take him and Muddy for off-site foster care until they were old enough to be brought back to DEFHR and started under saddle. That time has come and ZuZu is now back with us and ready to start his training. He's a strikingly handsome young boy, with excellent conformation and a great personality. ZuZu's adoption fee will increase once he is started under saddle and his training progresses.

UPDATE (1/2/09): ZuZu returned early today from off-site training due to an injury. He is now on stall rest, but should make a full recovery.

Adam came to us from PG County Animal Control in July '08 as a neglect case. He was a 1 out of 9 on the Henneke body condition scale and had overgrown, unhealthy feet riddled with severe thrush and abscesses. Adam was castrated and made a fairly smooth recovery. Shortly after getting turned out with one of our other geldings in one of our fields, Adam started to experience front-end lameness. Adam has been on stall and paddock rest since and is still experiencing some very mild lameness, though his x-rays came back clean. The vet seems to think that the lameness is originating in the shoulder. Due to Adam's inability to return to 100% soundness, we have decided to make him available in our SOS Program. He is pasture sound and is currently getting turned out for half a day in one of our larger paddocks. Though he may never be able to be ridden, his young age and spunky personality make him a great candidate for a job as a companion horse with someone looking for a project to work with on the ground. Adam gets along very well with other horses and should make a great buddy for someone! He is healthy in every other way and still loves to romp and play around his paddock, even if he is a little on the gimpy side. This boy is loaded with personality that you don't want to pass up on!

Double came to us from Montgomery County in October of '08 with four other horses. He had a body condition of 1 out of 9, overgrown hooves, rainrot, and very sharp teeth. He made a very speedy recovery and has turned into quite a handsome boy! He has advanced ringbone in his front right pastern, which sporadically leaves him mildly lame. We have evaluated him one time under saddle at the walk and he did great. We plan on evaluating him further in the upcoming months. Double will only be suitable for light riding, due to his ringbone. He's a gentleman on the ground and is easy to handle, considering he was only just castrated at the end of July. Double Down will need to go to a gelding-only home. He is currently being introduced to our gelding herd. We will update once we learn more about him.

Layla arrived to us years ago as a neglect case, severely emaciated. She is now a gorgeous girl, with lots of spunk and personality. Layla was just recently returned by her adoptive family due to unforeseen personal events. Layla is a gorgeous mare who gets along well with the other horses in her herd, ties for feed and grooming, loves baths, and is good for the vet. We have placed her in the SOS Program because she has behavioral issues under saddle that make her unfit for riding. She has no medical issues. She requires an intermediate handler on the ground. This girl has been with us for far too long. Give her a home!

Persian came to us on the last day of 2008 as a stray from Animal Control. He came to us a woolly mammoth, but under all that fur was a very thin boy, covered in tick bites. His hooves were extremely overgrown and malformed because of their lack of care. His long hooves made his gait very uncoordinated and it was painful to watch him try to walk. Persian is now doing much better. He has put on quite a bit of weight since being put out in our lush fields and can often be seen trotting and cantering around when he's feeling a bit frisky. He gets along great with both mares and geldings and should make a great companion for any horse. We suspect that he might have Cushings Disease, but right now requires no other treatment other than body clippling in the summer. His adopter will need to be prepared to continue the corrective trimming of his feet every four weeks.

Sebastian arrived to us this past summer as a neglect case. He made a very speedy recovery and is now ready to find his new home. Sebastian ties for feed and grooming, is good for the vet and farrier, gets along well with mares and geldings, and is simply an over-grown teddy bear of a horse. This beautiful boy has recently been evaluated under saddle and put into training. He goes well at the walk/trot/canter and simply needs someone to help him brush up on his skills. He has not yet been evaluated off-site or on the trail. We are dealing with a mild, sporadic lameness in his right front, which usually improves once he is warmed up. Most days, he is even able to handle some very light jumping (which he loves) - he just needs to be warmed up properly. We have started him on some joint supplements, as we are thinking it may be related to some arthritis. Sebastian would be well-suited for an advanced beginner handler and an intermediate rider. He does mildly crib when bored, so a home where he can have full turnout is recommended.

Solo arrived to us from PG County in the beginning of '08 as a starvation case. He was off-the-track and, whether it is due to his racing career or not, he has two blown knees. X-rays revealed extensive arthritic changes and fusing of the bones in the knee. He has limited flexion in both front legs, but that doesn't stop him from racing around the fields and playing with his friends. Solo is good for the vet, farrier, and de-worming. He ties for feed and grooming and loves to be scratched on his itchy spot! Solo needs to go to a home where he can have daily 24-hour turnout, as staying in a stall will make him stiff and sore. Contact us if you're interested in giving this sweet boy a loving home! He's a big teddy bear of a horse and just needs someone to give him the love he deserves.

Torque came to us in April 2008 with 7 other horses. He had a body condition of 1 out of 9, as well as severe rainrot, thrush, and parasite infestation. Torque made a speedy recovery and really turned into quite a handsome boy. He ties for feed and grooming and is good for the farrier, but he does require a more experienced handler, as he can be somewhat pushy. We are guessing that he was mostly ridden Western prior to his arrival with us, however he does know English aids. Due to slight navicular and arthritic changes in his front end, Torque is only suitable for light riding. He is good on the trails and in the ring and actually seems to enjoy having a job. He requires an advanced beginner to intermediate rider. Torque can only be kept with geldings.

Ariel ranks on the Henneke Body Condition Scale as a 2 out of 9, with rainrot, thrush, and teeth in need of floating. Since arriving to us, Ariel has gotten her teeth floated, is completely dewormed, vaccinated and has been turned out with our older mare herd. Ariel is technically finished with her rehabilitation, however we are working on various techniques to help control her separation anxiety before placing her up for adoption. She has come a long way since first arriving to us, so we don't think it will be much longer before she is ready to find a home.

Hidalgo Pics

Hidalgo came to us from Caroline County in October '08 as a starvation and neglect case, along with Ice and Jolie. He ranked on the Henneke Body Condition Scale as a 1 out of 9 (severely emaciated). We have been told by someone who knew Hidalgo years ago that he is registered with the American Paint Horse Association and that he used to be used for Dressage and Eventing. He is currently in the middle of his rehabilitation process and still has a long way to go, but we have every reason to think he'll make a full recovery. Once he is fully recovered, he will be evaluated under saddle and placed in our SOS Program.

Update (November 2009): Hidalgo has left for the winter to go to off-site foster care where he can continue recovering from his tendon injury.

Quil arrived to us at the beginning of September 2009 as a starvation case. He ranked at a 1 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale, with long feet, rainrot, and teeth in need of a good floating. His has been making a smooth recovery since he came to us and is slowly but surely gaining the weight. He is still not strong enough to balance and allow his hind feet to be trimmed, but we're working with him everyday to get to that point. Upon having his teeth floated, the vet realized that he is missing quite a few of his molars, but that doesn't slow him down when it's time to eat! This boy has so much energy and spark, we are very optimistic that he will make a complete recovery.

SaraSota arrived to us on December 10, 2009 from Queen Anne's County Animal Control due to starvation and neglect. She ranks at a 1.5 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale. She needs a lot of dental work done, as she seems to have either fractured or missing molars, as well as severe hooks and sharp points. Her feet have suffered severe blown abscesses out of the coronet bands in the past, leaving her hoof walls severely cracked and chipped. She currently has a heart murmur with an irregular heartbeat, which we are hoping will diminish, if not completely resolve, as her condition improves. So far, SaraSota has been alert, energetic, and very sweet. She's doing well so far and settling in nicely. We have high hopes that she will make a full recovery.

He is suffering from rainrot, burs in his coat, mane, and tail, overgrown feet, and parasites. He ranks as a 4 out of 9 on the Henneke Body Condition Scale. Yukon is giving us every indication of making a full and speedy recovery.

Zepplin arrived to us in 2003 as a cryptorchid colt of a mere few months old. Still nursing from his malnourished mother, he was sickly and weak. Zepplin made a full recovery and was adopted out at 6 months old, however due to his unique situation of being a cryptorchid stallion and DEFHR not having the funds for surgery at the time, he was adopted out with strict guidelines in regards to his care and management. Due to financial issues, Zepplin was recently returned to us. Thanks to a generous donation, we were able to get Zepplin castrated. He is currently recovering from his surgery and doing very well. Once he is fully recovered, he will be started into our training program and made available for adoption.
