Horses

We are always on the search for special horses.  We need very very gentle, kind, well mannered, and quiet horses.  We take geldings from age 10 to age 18.  They need to be sound enough to carry riders of many sizes for a walk and trot, for at least 3 one hour lessons, 4-5 days a week, no sway backs, and no medical issues.  Also we need them to have good teeth.  We do not take very thin horses. It is important to recognize that our program is not about horse rescue, but rather we need very special horses to take care of very special people.  These kind of horses are a treasure, and we are privileged to have such grand fellows help us in our mission to serve people with disabilities.

Do you think you might have a horse that you could donate which might fit?  If so we would be excited to talk with you more about them.  Please click the links to our lease/donation forms below so you can understand that process. We sometimes make exceptions to the above listed qualifications, but we try to stay within those parameters as much as we can.

Your donation for up to $4,999.99 is tax deductible.  For more information contact sue.karges@horsepowersf.com or kelsey.barker@horsepowersf.com

A Sad Note:  I am so sorry to share with you that HorsePower’s precious pony Dexter suffered a severe colic in January and has been humanely laid to rest.  He was a trooper to the end, and we will miss him so much.  If you are able to help as many people in your life as Dexter did in his, you will have lived a good life indeed.  God rest his soul and thank you so much Lord for sharing this wonderful fellow with us these many years.
