Dazzle came to OHR after her owner was going through a divorce and had nowhere for her to go, nor the funds to board her. She came to us severely obese and previously foundered. Her feet were badly damaged and she was lame, but she has since made a full recovery. She has glaucoma in one eye and has developed moon blindness, but is comfortable with her vision impairment. She is very sweet, easy to catch in the pasture, and is a wonderful companion horse as she’s quite mellow. Daz leads and stands well in crossties to be groomed. She does not care to be stalled but loves being able to roam out in the pasture.

This flashy Paint mare was found at the Eugene auction in 2016. Foxtrot had been a sheriff posse horse in her past, but is unfortunately now navicular on both of her front legs. Though she can’t be ridden anymore, Foxtrot is an easy keeper that gets along with other horses in turnout and likes to follow us around in the pasture. Foxtrot is available for adoption to an unmounted home and is also eligible for sponsorship while at OHR.

Jemma is a chestnut mare that came to the rescue as a surrender. She was abandoned at a child’s birthday party and the family did not have the means to care for her. Jemma is sweet and likes attention and is quite good in-hand and for the farrier and vet, but she does prefers to be out to pasture than in a stall. She apparently had a broken hock in the past before she came to us, so she is best suited for a home as a pasture companion. Jemma gets along with both mares and geldings and loves to graze the day away.

Samsung is a bay TB who came to OHR after his owner found herself in the hospital for almost a year just three weeks after she got him, and she ultimately had to surrender him. Samsung is sound and broke to ride. He has big movement, which could intimidate a novice rider. He lunges well in both directions, despite having his right eye removed due to an old injury. Samsung is looking for a home that will remind him of his ground manners, as he can sometimes be pushy on the ground. Samsung does best in pastures with all geldings because he can get overly attached to mares. He can be stalled or kept in a pasture but does occasionally crib and may need to wear a cribbing collar in the stall.

Tahoe is a “Medicine Hat” paint mare. She came to the rescue because her owner was financially unable to provide the needed treatment for the squamous cell carcinoma in her eyes. She has undergone regular chemo treatments on her left eye since arriving at OHR and has seen tremendous improvement. However, in summer of 2018, Tahoe injured her right eye while out to pasture and ended up having it removed. She has adapted well to life with one eye and is happy and healthy at present. Tahoe also has the misfortune of being diagnosed with navicular syndrome, and thus cannot be ridden but she is eager to be brushed and very respectful to handle on the ground. She does fine in a stall or pasture and is a very easy keeper. She would make a very sweet pasture pet or companion horse.

Pansy is a flashy Paint mare with one blue eye. She came to the rescue as a forced surrender through LCAS. When she arrived, she was more than 200 pounds underweight, extremely timid, and fearful. She has had time to just be a horse and is learning to trust again. In her time with us, she has had 30 days professional training under saddle and continues to progress every time she is handled. However, because of her traumatic past, we don’t think Pansy should go to a riding home because she can sometimes be unpredictable under saddle. She lunges well and could be a good fit for an in-hand career. She is looking for an owner willing to continue desensitizing her to build trust. She stands well for grooming, tacking, and the farrier and she is easy to handle with polite ground manners. She’s happy in a stall or out to pasture.

Currently our youngest resident, Riata came to us in 2016 as an owner surrender with a badly damaged fetlock. We believe that when she was just a baby, she was kicked in the fetlock. Left untreated, the injury resulted in a bone infection that the vet thought would ultimately deteriorate the integrity of the leg within a few years. However, Riata is a fighter and the bone appears to have fused, though she is still lame and therefore unrideable. Riata was timid and reserved when she came to us, but she is more and more trusting every day and now loves attention, especially long grooming sessions. She is currently adoptable and would be best suited for a home that would work her in hand or keep her in a large pasture so she can continue to move around on her leg.
