Adoption Overview $500

Tundra

Help us find long-term resident Tundra his forever home! The 17-year-old Grey Arabian gelding arrived at the HSVC on December 23, 2022, after being rescued by our Humane Officers in a case of abuse and neglect. Despite his past and medical issues of metabolic and thyroid problems, Tundra has a sweet personality and doesn't let his setbacks stop him from trotting around. He would need time to acclimate to new horses, but Tundra would love to be someone's pasture buddy.

Tundra stands at 14.3 hands tall and is located in Ojai, CA.

Tundra has been saddled and is working with shelter staff to become more comfortable being ridden. He just needs a confident, patient owner who will move slowly with him until he's relaxed. Due to his anxious nature, we don't recommend he go to a home with a child rider. Tundra is also looking for an owner who will be mindful of his gut health and can supply his metabolic supplements and thyroid medications for the rest of his life.

Please submit an adoption inquiry if you would like to learn more about Tundra!

When you choose to adopt, you're not just giving a second chance to an animal in need; you are becoming a part of HSVC's critical rescue work. As a private nonprofit, our shelter does not receive any funding from the county, state, or government. Adoption fees help HSVC continue performing our lifesaving work for animals in need. Thank you for supporting animals in our community!
