Horse donations
Many of our program horses have been donated to us, or are on a long-term lease. We need sound, safe horses who are willing to connect with humans. Because much of our time is spent in the mountains, we need horses who are able to go all day in the backcountry, cross water, be mannerly in a line of riders and calm in the trailer. As our herd ages up, we are always looking for suitable replacements for the old horses who retire into our ground-only programs. If you have or know of a suitable prospect, please contact our staff to schedule a visit. We have a 30-day trial period to see if it will be a comfortable, safe fit for both Horse Warriors™ and the prospective donation.
