USERL has several horses just waiting to find their special person to call their own. Whether you are wanting your next show horse, or have the space in your heart to give a horse his or her final retirement home, a USERL horse might have the right companion.

 

What are USERL's adoption policies in a nutshell?

Adopted horses remain the property of USERL. Adopters may not breed, race, sell or give away the adopted horse. Adopters must allow USERL to inspect their facility for safety prior to adoption, and access to check the horse thereafter at USERL's discretion.

 

How does the adoption process work?

Potential adopters first need to fill out an adoption application. If a particular horse interests them, they should put that horse's name on the application. An USERL volunteer will contact them to discuss the horse and schedule a barn check.  Once we know the facility meets USERL reqirements, the potential adopter will be put in contact with the foster home to schedule a time to meet the horse.  After the potential adopter visits the horse, and decides they would like to adopt the horse, the appropriate USERL Regional Director and/or Executive Director discuss the adoption with the foster home to ensure the horse and potential adopter are a good fit.
