Did you know it costs the rescue approximately $200 per month to care for a rescued horse? This covers the regular Feed, Hay, Farrier, and Veterinary costs,<\/strong> such as vaccinations. Medical expenses for long-term conditions are in addition to this. RVHR depends on public donations to cover the yearly fees for each<\/strong><\/span> horse in our care.<\/strong> To help care for a horse in need financially, click here<\/a><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Note: Most of our residents are not Rideable but would love to have a home of their own and the love of a family. <\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Rideable Description meaning – A RVHR team member has been on the horse at a walk ONLY.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before inquiring about a horse at RVHR, please read our placement guidelines<\/a>.<\/span> Once you have done so, you are welcome to submit our Pre-Adoption Meet-and-Greet Application.<\/a><\/span><\/strong> RVHR Adoption Fees<\/strong> run between $250 and $750. Each adopted horse will be UTD on Shots and Coggins.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
