How to Adopt a Horse?

Adoption Application
Adoption Agreement


Each horse is different, as is each adopter. We want the right match. If you feel like you can't take on a mature wild horse but have a little more confidence taking on a two year old that has already been haltered, don't be afraid to say so! If it doesn't fit - it won't work! We want the best thing for you and the animal. If you are looking for a breeding mare, please look elsewhere.  If you want a foal, adopt a pregnant mare.  If you want a baby, adopt one.

Adopters also need to understand that HyTyme has first right of refusal.  If your adopted new companion doesn't work out, please notify us immediately. Our primary goal is to make sure every horse or mule has a good home. We want to make sure that you do not send your companion to auction or slaughter.  Please contact us first before relocating your companion, as any relocation of your horse or mule from the listed location without notifying us will breach our contract.

All potential adopters will be subject to an onsite inspection of their property. This is to insure proper fencing and suitable shelter. We also require a background check and personal references.
 
Base adoption fees vary depending on the animal. Prices are based on the training of the horse or mule.   We try to geld all colts & stallions that arrive at HyTyme and adoption fees may reflect such charges. 

All Adoption Fees pay for food, veterinary care, and hoof care for all the horses at HyTyme.
