Description
- Leading and Ground Manners - Level 1 - Lady is simple to work with and leads easily in a regular halter and cotton lead rope.
- Grooming and Tacking - Level 1 - Lady is a lady in the crossties. She is great to groom, bathe, and tack up. She loves her spa days!
- Horse Care - Level 1 - Shiny and plump on our regular grain ration, Lady isn't fancy. She eats our normal grain ration and wears basic front shoes. She gets turned out all night with a herd of mares and thrives outside 24/7.
- Riding - Level 1 - Lady loves the leisurely life and is much more "woah than go." She is simple and uncomplicated under saddle.
- Physical Capability - Level 2 - Lady is best suited for a mid-level career. We think she would be the cutest western pony or trail horse, but could go in almost any direction. As always, veterinary records are available to intersted and approved adopters.
- General Demeanor - Level 1 - Lady is drama-free and kind. She has been easy to have around.

ABOUT OUR ADOPTION FEES
New Vocations intentionally sets our horses’ adoption fees lower than the average cost of buying a Thoroughbred or Standardbred from a private seller (in today’s market, horses coming right off the track are often listed at $5,000 to $10,000!).
Our fees range from $0 (waived) to $3,500.
- Fees typically correspond with a horse’s Anticipated Physical Capability. So, horses that are found to be best suited for non-riding careers (our Pasture Potatoes) have waived fees, while the fees for horses assessed to be suitable for high-impact careers will be up to $3,500.
While our adoption fees are low, it’s important to remember that costs associated with ongoing care and additional training for a horse can be high. We hope that by helping adopters save money upfront, you’ll have more funds available to cover the costs of properly caring for and training a retired racehorse.
When you adopt a horse through New Vocations, you’re helping two horses; your new family member and the one who takes their place in our program. Our facilities are nearly always at max capacity, which means we can’t take in a new horse until one is adopted. Keeping our adoption fees low helps us find appropriate homes for horses quickly, enabling us to help even more horses transition off the track as stalls open up in our barns!
Another perk of adopting from us: we do all we can to give you the most value for your adoption fee. Most adoptable horses have been in the program for a minimum of 60 days, during which they've rehabilitated (if needed), socialized with other horses, been evaluated by trainers and veterinarians, and have been in regular training with a professional. On average, the monetary value of these services exceeds $5,000. Any medical records (often including X-rays and ultrasounds) and pertinent history we have on each horse are also available to interested and approved adopters.
