Adoption Application - Guardian Oak Growth by Giving

Thank you for your interest in adopting a horse rescued by Guardian Oak! To ensure each one of our horses finds a permanent and loving home, our application asks several detailed questions which are necessary for the screening process. Each horse has a set adoption fee depending on the horse's individual qualities, and GO reserves the right to refuse adoption. All information will be kept completely confidential between you and the adoption managers. This information helps us match you with the perfect rescued partner!

This adoption application will be kept on file for one year from application date. If your address, experience/comfort level, or other answers change during this time and you wish to pursue adoption, you must inform GO of the updated circumstances.
After you fill out this application, you should contact us to make an appointment to learn more about your horse(s) of interest and meet them on the farm. If and when you pursue adoption, you will sign a contract and put down a $100 holding fee. The remainder of adoption fees must be paid before the horse(s) leaves GO.
