Meet Betsy

Name: Betsy
Age: 27
Gender: mare
Height: 14.2
Color: black
Markings: star
Breed: Standardbred
Registered: no
Vices/Quirks: none
Likes: cookies and her friends
Bathes/Loads/Ties: yes, she is very well behaved
Stands well for vet/farrier: yes, she stands BEAUTIFULLY
Maintenance: she has some missing molars so she has some special needs in the wintertime when there isn't grass to be had. She is able to chew grass just fine, but has a hard time chewing hay so will need soaked hay cubes or chopped hay. We use a cheap leaf shredder and run regular hay flakes through that and it works very well for her! She can graze just fine.
Ideal Home: Due to Betsy's age we are asking for the home that adopts her to only have children led around on her. She is not suitable for adult riders.
Adoption Fee: $150.00
Notes: whoever adopts Betsy will need to understand that she cannot just be thrown out with a round bale... she is unable to chew long stemmed coarse hay.

To adopt from Bella Run Equine:
-We are located in Athens, Ohio, so before contacting us be sure to map it out and make sure you are willing to make the drive.
-We require a vet/farrier reference.
-We need your address and photos of your barn, fence, and current animals.
-Once approved to adopt, you will need to come and meet the horse you are interested in. We do not do sight unseen adoptions. This is to ensure a good fit between horse and rider.
-Since you will be approved to adopt when you come for your meet and greet, you are welcome to bring a trailer with you and take your horse home the same day. You can also choose to go home and think about it!
-We do not adopt out to people under the age of 21 or people who have been charged with animal cruelty or neglect. We will check.
-We do require our adopters to sign an adoption contract that states that the horse is not to be sold (must be returned to BRE in the event that you cannot keep them). We do not allow our mares to go to homes where they will be bred. No exceptions.
-We do NOT have regular 9-5 hours and schedule meet and greets by appointment only.
