BUDDY
Available for Adoption
Buddy -16hh, 8 years old - solid dark bay
Our beautiful, sweetest boy, Buddy is back from his time with the eventing trainer.
This is what we discovered: Buddy won't make an eventer. He would rather go slow, get love from people and just be chill. He did well under saddle.

FILLY MAE
Adopted
Meet Filly Mae, a 14.2 hh, 13-year-old pony-sized mare.
She is a dark bay with chrome. Mae Mae was a kids' horse down in Ocala, Florida. Kids grew up, and she moved to the broodmare field to spend retirement.
She was sent to us by the owner to find her a new home. She also prefers kids to adults. Because of her time off, we suggest a few weeks with the trainer of your choice.
Filly Mae is super smart, and everything comes right back to her. Truly a diamond for the right home.

*UPDATE: We have been awarded a grant from After the Finish Line to train Filly Mae!
Adoption fee: $1,700 - Located in Knoxville, Tennessee
MISTY - Adopted
Barn name: MISTY (Located in Knoxville, TN)
"Misty," a 12-year-old, 15.3hh mare is up for adoption. She is one of our estate horses.
Misty has had ground training and started under saddle. She is willing, super smart, and learns quickly. Sound, this very nice mare would do well in English or Western disciplines, with her naturally low headset. She is familiar with woods, trails, and crossing obstacles. She loads, leads, and stands for the farrier. Papers will be available.
Her only negative? She makes the most mean, crucial mare dragon face we have seen when she needs to keep the other horses in line. This mare will make a nice horse for an intermediate and above rider.
For more information or to apply for adoption, please contact us at 865-438-7678 or via email:HomestretchTbredRescue@gmail.com.
Adoption fee (for approved adopter): $1,800

Sunny is super smart and eager to please. She is a beautiful mover and easily goes over the smaller jumps we have tried with her. She only has 6 starts and last raced 5 years ago and retired sound.

ADOPTED
RUSH - Adopted
Barn name: Rush
Rush is a long yearling KY-bred gelding.
He’s over 15.3 and growing. We have begun his training with ground work and gentle conditioning. He’s sound, smart and gets along fine in a herd.
A barn favorite, Rush loves going to the fence and greeting visitors.
When he was still a baby, Rush came to us as a true-blue slaughter rescue. I personally pulled him off a truck and the rest of the horses from his farm left for Mexico.
​
We would love for Rush to be someone’s Cinderella story.
