Hello, My names is James, and I have been considering getting 3 horses. I feel it willdo more good to help out a horse in need than just buy one at auction or from breeder. This is why I'm contacting you. I have 5.5 ac home I rural Luther OK. and a 10 yr old son, crazy about horses. My wife and I feel that getting some horses and having family rides and the responsibilty of care will help in the growth of a well rounded young man. I did not see anything as to adoption fees,shots,ect. is this aval. at this time? Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks James. --Previous Message-- : I have been rescuing Arabians for 15 : years and I am helping the owner : place these horses.
