Fox Valley Deon
Standardbred gelding, 15 hands and 10yrs old. Deon has been
trained to saddle and would be a good trail horse. Needs an
intermediate to experienced rider. Deon is a sweet and loving
horse and always wants attention. If someone walks in the
pasture Deon will be right at your side, he’s like a dog.
He loves being around other horses. He stands perfectly for
the farrier, when brushed and even getting saddled. Deon is
very easy to catch in the pasture.

A
Team Hall
A Team Hall A Team is a chunky ex-trotting gelding. He stands
approximately 15'1-15'2 hands. Unfortunately, over the course
of the past several months an eye condition became apparent
but was left untreated. A Team currently is weeping from that
eye, but the eye itself is clear. However, he has no vision,
as observed when he walks in new surroundings with his head
tilted so that the good eye can see. A veterinarian will check
the eye on March 19. In the meantime, there have been people
handling A Team. He is easy to lead and very trusting. He
is intelligent and independent. Here's some stats: Easy to
catch: 5 (with strangers he may be a 3, with familiar people
he may be a 9) Easy to halter: 9 Picks up feet for cleaning,
trimming: 10 Stands quietly for routine bloodwork and veterinary
exam: 10 Gets along well with herdmates: 10 Aggression towards
other horses: 1 Loading, hauling: 10 Stands for grooming:
9 This is all we have had the opportunity to observe, as we
have not ridden A Team since he has been at the ASAP farm.
He is well seasoned on trails of all kinds, and to our knowledge
has never bolted, reared, bucked, or in any way unseated his
riders. Recommendation: Adoption with King's Royal Fella his
pasture mate - a matched team for driving and riding.
|
|
Picasso
A note from his previous adopter: He has been fabulous for
us! Always the first to great you when you come out. He is very
smooth in his transitions and is very quick! He truly is an
easy keeper, loads like a dream and is great with farriers.
He is not for a timid rider. An intermediate rider would do
fine with him. I think the best thing for him at this point
would be to give him a refresher with a trainer

Jackson
Jackson is 7 1/2 years old. He is a beautiful
Saddlebred. Approximately 16 hands tall. He is a very curious
horse that is the first one that comes up to you when you call.
He dances a little for the farrier but that is his personality.
He loads easy and is an easy keeper. He can be a little pushy.
He has been on many trail rides and overnight camping trips.
He likes to ride. He is good on trails. When he doesn't know
what something is he will stand by it or watch it and will go
through it or by it. He does need an intermediate rider. He
has a lot of energy. He plays hard sometimes with people, he
sometimes will play but can bite as a part of his play. He is
a fun horse with a lot of personality. He was in the middle
of our herd. Not top and not bottom.

King's Royal Fella
King was ridden on Monday for about two hours.
A man who had never ridden King before came to the ASAP farm
and we saddled King up and he stood quietly. I was the first
to get on - we had an O ring snaffle on King and he seemed to
really pull through the bit so I put on a Tom Thumb bridle and
he responded without pushing and without quite the "get up and
go". He is quick to respond, loves to move out, and will stand
still when asked to "whoa" after a warm up. He went by himself
without another horse, and we noted a walk, trot, running walk,
pace, and canter. He is going to be a fantastic, energetic,
willing to please horse for someone!
King is a 16 year old gelding who has a Quarter
horse build, much like A Team Hall. He is the same size at A
Team, standing at or around 15'1-15'2 hands. He has a white
star and white snip, and thick mane and tail. He was also ridden
many years on trails along with A Team and Fitz. Here are some
stats: Easy to catch: 9 for familiar persons, 3 for unfamiliar
Easy to halter and lead: 9 Picks up feet for cleaning, trimming:
10 Stands quietly for routine bloodwork and veterinary exam:
10 Gets along well with pasture mates: King can be dominant
in a herd, especially at feeding time. With the pasture mates
he has had for the past seven years he is very docile. Loading,
hauling: 10 Stands for grooming: 10 - King stood quietly while
I picked the wind knots from his tail and docked his tail in
places where I could not get knots out King tends to be very
herd sour when separated from A Team Hall. King is emotional
in that when separated from A Team he may whinny and not stand
still when being handled. Recommend that A Team and King be
placed together as a matched driving team or as riding buddies.

JB
22 year od Mare, she was raced. She is between 15 and 16
hands, bay with a white face. She is very malnourished right
now and is pretty quiet unless you take her away from other
horses. I do not think she has ever been ridden or could be
at this point. She really just needs a loving home where she
could be spoiled to make up for the suffering she has endured.
Because of her condition, she does need a stall or shelter
and blanket for the Winter. She is very sweet with people
but I think can be a bit dominant with other horses.

Missile Mike
(from foster home) He's pretty good on it but
Dondi warned us that no one over 150 lbs should ride him. My
farrier echoed that too, it would put too much stress on it.
We have his brace that goes on it. He also hasn't been ridden.
He much more confident with women to men and he absolutely loves
kids. If he sees children he will walk right to the fence and
put his head over for them to pet him. He came right up to a
very autistic boy that came for therapy riding 2 weeks ago.
back in program. Currently in Illinois

Jumbo
Shrimp
 
Hi
everybody!!! My registered name is Jumbo Shrimp, but since that's
kind of a funny name for a horse, you can call me Bella (or
Shrimpy!) I am a brown/black bay Standardbred, and I'm a 23-year-old
grandma. I stand at 15.3 hands, so I'm pretty tall for a grandma!!!
I was born in New Jersey (I wonder how I wound up in Wisconsin!)
~ my dad was Direct Scooter and my mom was Gotta Headache. I
raced as a pacer during 1989-1993, and had lifetime winnings
of $48,638. I have had 10 registered Standardbred foals, of
which 9 were raced. My babies have had total winnings of $565,557.
I'm so proud of them! When I turned the grand age of 20, I got
to be a pasture pet and have been used very lightly on trails.
My original person had some financial and divorce difficulties,
and so I came to be part of the ASAP program. I now live with
my foster person near Baraboo, WI. I am a sweet old gal and
I'm hoping I can find a family who will let me continue to be
a pasture pet, or maybe even your best friend. I can be ridden
lightly, but please don't make me work too hard ~ it wouldn't
be good for me to be ridden extensively. Since I'm a grandma,
I would like to be fed separately from other horses if they
get too bossy with me, and I would like to have senior horse
feed. My foster person thinks I might need some supplements
for arthritis, but she is not sure since this is my first winter
with her. I was really happy when I got a good hoof trim, and
I don't have any signs of lameness. In the summertime, please
make sure I have shade to stand or lay under.
Tender
Tidbit: I feel that I have had a very
honorable career, and I would love to have a human companion
to call my very own ~ someone to love me and spoil me in my
golden years. I have a lot of love to give back, too. Guess
what ~ my adoption fee will be waived, if the right person finds
me and wants to love me!!! That's pretty neat!!! I hope there
is someone out there who will come to see me and want to take
me home!!! :)

a beginning rider but an intermediate to experienced rider would

horse that is very easy to be around. He is an easy keeper,
loads, does well for farrier.

Betty's
Nightmare
Hello!!!
My name is Betty's Nightmare! I know, I know ~ that's kind of
a silly name, but everyone calls me Betty, and I'm really not
a Nightmare at all!! I am a 3rd dam to Night's Dream, and that's
how I got this name. I'm 15 years young, and also about 15 hands
high. I am a black mare, and quite pretty, if I do say so myself!
When I was young I was a pacer and I lived with Larry Goins
in Indiana. I have lived with my foster person for many years,
but sadly she has developed some bad allergies and asthma, and
I need to find a different home. I haven't been ridden very
much, but I have let children be led around on my back. I don't
like to go into the woods, though ~ it seems like such a scary
place! I am broke to drive, because of my background. Sometimes
I am really sensitive and am not sure about being touched, but
when I'm in a happy mood I love to have attention. I do know
my commands, and when my person spends time with me I am very
well-behaved. I need to have a person who will understand my
moods and be patient with me. A couple of years ago I had some
problems with one of my hooves. My person was very good about
treating me and having a farrier work with me. It took a long
time, but my hoof is getting better now and only needs more
growing out under the nail. At least I am no longer lame! I
am really good with the farrier and see him on a regular basis.
Last fall my pasture buddy found a new home and I am lonely
without her, and sometimes sad. I would love to have a person
of my own who would love me and work with me and bring out the
best in me. Is there anybody out there who would like to take
me home? It would make me so happy!!
Tender
Tidbit: Even though I might sometimes appear to be aloof,
I am really just sad without my buddy. When my foster person
comes out to see me, she always calls to me "Hello Miss Betty"
and I give her a big purr in response. So you see, I really
do know my name and I want to have a person I can call my own.
My adoption fee is only $100. Thanks for reading about me and
I hope I will find a new forever home real soon!!!

Wildfire
(3yr)
Filly.
Pony. 8.3HH. White with brown speckles. Wildfire is halter broke
and has a nice trot. She would be a great little cart pony.
Current owner states, "She has a lovely, animated trot
- a flashy pony once rid of her winter coat - she is white with
brown "Arabian speckles" and large expressive eyes.
Wildfire was WILD when she came and is wary of strangers but
surprised me by bumping me lightly with her nose the other day
- asking for a treat - so she is learning to trust despite not
getting a lot of attention. She has a condition which the vet
couldn't diagnose with the equipment he has. We are guessing
it might be something like cleft palate in humans. We considered
taking her to Madison to have her scoped to confirm or deny
that - but since she is in good health and thriving - decided
not to put her through the stress. She does best on dry feed
- such as hay - and is an "easy keeper" as long as
she has plenty of fresh water and some hay. She can eat grass,
though it causes green discharge to run from her nose and in
turn colors her coat green anywhere she touches herself with
her muzzle. When she is fed hay that doesn't happen. Her feet
are good and her attitude is curious and alert. She doesn't
bully other animals. It is a shame that a young animal with
her "weather vane horse" trot should spend her days
loafing around the pasture. It would be wonderful if there was
someone out there - perhaps someone who loves horses but is
no longer able to ride or interested in riding, who has the
experience and the time to teach this little lady to pull a
small cart. As frightened as she was when she came flying out
of the trailer on the first day she was here, and as horrified
as she was about the process of washing off all the layers of
mud, dirt and manure that first couple of days (not a big fan
of bathing) she has never kicked or bitten. A little hay, a
lot of fresh clean water to wash it down, some minerals and
routine health care have kept her healthy here. I don't foresee
her condition getting worse - she has seemed to thrive on the
diet she is eating - but I couldn't guarantee that she would
never have a problem." Please call for more details on
Wildfire.

Brandy
Current
owner states, "Brandy's lameness is really only apparent
when the ground is frozen. the vet out to look at her and
she has some arthritis above her hooves in the front. On days
where it is rough out, her lameness if definitely apparent
but on days where there is snow to walk on or the ground is
not frozen, then she is fine. For those reasons, we think
shoes and pads might just be the answer for the cold months.
The vet said the rest of her joints are all in really good
shape so this seems like something that can be corrected or
worked with. I also have her on Cortaflex too which helps.
It is something that will need to be addressed but it is no
way makes her useless. She just has days where she is sore.
The vet did not say to restrict her action or anything like
that. Hope that is a better explanation. I also have the write
up the vet did 2 weeks ago for anyone who wants it."
UPDATE (5/22): Brandy continues to thrive
with the day campers who come to the ASAP farm. She
is walking better than ever now, without shoes. She
is aided by a wonderful farrier who believes in natural hoof
trimming and has helped her to the point where she no longer
needs shoes. She is happy and the pinned ears and open
mouth have all but disappeared. We are proud to say
Brandy is very happy at ASAP but the right person could win
her over - come and see if you are the one! Brandy is
being ridden on a regular basis with a hackamore and goes
both bareback and under Western saddle. She has never
offered to buck, rear, or do anything and is a perfect riding
horse

buddy, Bennie, opened the first card with a note from and
photo of Arne, he kissed it and carried around all day! Update
(10/4): Arne has a buddy! Arne wants to joyously
report that: " A four year old boy from California has
committed to helping me by sponsoring me for the next six
months. We are anxious to start communicating with each other
through pictures and letters. $30 a month will pay for a half
a bale of good hay for me to eat.....I am so grateful that
this boy cared so much for me that he picked me to love and
care for! Look for updates in the next couple of weeks as
we share pictures and letters with all of you too!" Loved,
Arne. Bay gelding - won $50,000 as a pacer - retired in
2000. Arne is an UNBELIEVABLY HANDSOME 17 hands high. His
left hind leg has a calcified and enlarged hock and though
he is trained to saddle, he's mainly a companion horse. Sweet
as sugar! Arne is just a big sweet TEDDY BEAR!
