Bindle Stick – Available for Adoption!

Thursday, January 17 2013 by Editor
Meet 7 year old, 16hh Thoroughbred gelding “Bindle Stick” now available for adoption from our Marysville, OH facility! Just one look at those big, bright eyes and dainty face and you can’t help but be drawn to him as he looks over his stall gate just waiting for anyone to come down the aisle and pay attention to him.  He is so adorable that you just want to squeeze him!  One look at his pedigree and it is no wonder that he is smart and athletic too.  He has a finer build allowing him to be very athletic and light on his feet and he is also very intelligent proving that by the way he goes to work when asked to.  Bindle has shown us that he is a very confident horse as well by just trotting over the little flower boxes as if they weren’t even there and then was very proud of himself, looking around the arena to make sure everyone was watching him. He is quite the show off in turn out as well, as he very cleverly took his pasture mates halter off and proceeded to trot around the pasture swinging it around for all to see what he had done!  Bindle gets along well with his turn out buddies and is the class clown of the group. His donor retired him because he believed the horse would rather be someone’s pet than a race horse anymore and that seems to be very true!  Bindle raced almost every month for 3 ½ years; he had his down time and is now ready for a new career.

40 Ex-Racehorses Adopted in December!

Thursday, January 03 2013 by Editor
At New Vocations we are constantly looking for ways we can help more horses. It’s an ongoing drive that is part of our team’s culture.  In order to take in more horses each year two things have to happen.  We have to raise more funds and we have to find more homes.

Take the Time to Find the Right Pasture Buddy for Your OTTB

Friday, November 09 2012 by Editor
Excerpt from Beyond the Track – Retraining the Thoroughbred from Racehorse to Riding Horse by Anna Ford (New Vocations’ Program Director) [Several] horses a year are returned to our program at New Vocations because they could not “get along” with the other horses they were turned out with, or vice versa.
