HOW DO I ADOPT
Taking care of racehorses doesn’t end when their careers are finished and they leave the track. Many of these horses still have their whole life ahead of them and are quite suitable for new careers. At JHF RE3 we help these horses make the difficult transition from life as a racehorse to a successful new career.
We have made it our mission to find Thoroughbreds a second career. We are a 501c3 non profit, and follow the AAEP Guidelines for Equine Rescue and Retirement Facilities.
We conduct an application approval process, and we have tailored our forms after the Turning for Home sample application. Our adoption application includes basic information about the potential adopter, as well as more detailed information, such as a description or even photos of the prospective adopter’s farm or boarding facility. In addition, all potential adopters must provide multiple references, such as a current veterinarian, friend, neighbor or employer. All approved adopters must also sign a No Auction/Right of First Refusal agreement.
After you are approved you may then set up an appointment to visit and even ride our horses. We ask that if you must cancel or postpone your appointment, please let the farm know as soon as possible. Time spent waiting on a potential adopter who never shows up takes time away from working with other horses or meeting with someone else who could adopt another horse from the facility.
Please feel free to contact us and we will send you the application forms or you may download the forms from the links below. We have included a pdf format and a word.document for you convenience. If you have any issues please contact me at jumpinghfarm@yahoo.com or you may call at 336-345-1377
