Open House & Adoption Day

Beautiful spring weather brought plenty of visitors out the the Kentucky Equine Humane Center for the monthly open house and adoption day.
A local Girl Scout troop stopped by with a donation of tasty treats and some needed horse care items.
Volunteers—many from nearby Midway College—brought horses up from the fields and helped show them off for potential adopters. Executive director Lori and barn manager Karen were on hand to help match horses and adopters and fill in details about the horses’ background and training. Visitors were able to watch the horses move in the round pen.

This cute buckskin mare might find a home with a riding school! Once potential adopters narrowed down their choices, they filled out adoption forms and made an appointment to see the horses go under saddle.



 



Let’s hope it’s a perfect match!
