Due to the sensitive nature of rescue work some of our horses are not listed on our website. Occasionally there are cases where photo ID will be requested in the beginning phases of adoption inquiries to ensure safe placement of our horses.
If you are interested in adopting any of the horses below, please contact us today!
ACE- Adoption Pending
Breed: Morgan Sex: Gelding Foaled: 1999 Age: 21 Height: 14.3hh
Suitable for: Walk/trot/canter trail or arena work for an intermediate to advanced rider
Personality/History: Ace came to Horses' Haven at the request of the Michigan Horse Welfare Coalition, and we were of course happy to come to his rescue! Ace had been ridden in the past but had several years off prior to coming to Horses’ Haven. He had only been ridden bitless, as his training progressed we tried a double break snaffle and he gradually accepted the bit. He is very animated and easily distracted but is staying focused on training longer each time. Ace has a comical personality and is fun to work with but we are still working on good manners. He is great for grooming, tacking, and mounting. Due to his previous living situation he tends to get buddy sour and is a little controlling of his equine friends out in the pasture.
