Placement Information for Horse, Ponies, Donkeys, and
Mules
Applications and placement information on this page applies to
horses only.
Thank you for your
interest in becoming a guardian for one of LCR's horses. You must fill
out an application before you visit. Once we receive your application we
will contact you to meet the horse you are interested in, or recommend
an alternative horse that may be better suited to your needs. We try to
match people with the horses the best we can. Some of
the horses listed are not on
this property and special arrangements must be made to
visit with them. We have a
waiting list of horses waiting to come in, if you don't see a horse listed that
fits your needs, please inquire about horses on our waiting list.
* Please note, we are only trying to find appropriate permanent homes
for these wonderful horses. We want to make sure they will fit in as a new family
member for you. Once we receive your application the process can take a
week to 10 days, depending on your availability, so be sure you are
ready to take on the
responsibility of a large animal like this. Also,
they are herd animals and must live with at least one other of their kind.
We have many horses available from youngsters needing training, to
mature and ready to ride. Send us your application today so we can
find you a new family member! Please read the placement agreement
prior to filling out an application so you fully understand our requirements
when placing an LCR horse in your care. Feel free to
contact us again if you have any questions about our policies.

Please view the Placement ( adoption)
Application & Placement Agreement.
Applications must be downloaded, completed and
mailed to Last Chance Ranch.
before you will be consider as a guardian. Please do not e-mail applications as they are difficult to read.
Applications must be received and reviewed prior to making appointments to
visit the horses. Please be aware that while we do
have horses that may be ridden, some horses have abilities that may be limited due to their
physical condition. We have a variety of horses in all shapes sizes, ages, and
abilities. Please view each horse's biography carefully. Information about
adoptable horses is the most current
information available about the horse at this time. Placement fees are subject to change.
Fees are based on
the health and ability of each individual horse. All horses have a recent negative coggins test, current
on all vaccinations we recommend, farrier needs, teeth floated, and are as
healthy as they can be. Remember, the fee we request is a donation to help cover
some of the costs we incur. Most horses cost LCR, on average, $500-$800 the
first month they are here just in the basic care. The cheapest thing you will
ever pay for is the cost of the horse. Be prepared to pay $200 - $400+ per month
to care for your new friend, just in the basics he/she will need. Vet and
additional expenses can be extreme. This is a decision to own a horse that is a
huge responsibility. See Basic Care and Guidelines
