Adopted January 9, 2010 1997, grade mare
Ada Monroe was removed from negligent owners by law enforcement officers and awarded to BEHS by the courts. When she arrived at her foster
home, she was nearly 200 pounds underweight and did not know what a carrot was. Despite her neglect Ada is a sweet natured horse that likes attention. She was adopted
twice and returned for bucking and be hard to ride. She finally met her perfect adopter in January of 2010.

2010 Bluebonnet Horse Expo. Congrats to Adiva and Vanessa!

Adopted October 2010 Approx. 2003 Bay grade gelding
Aramis came to BEHS along with several other horses in a neglect case. He was a young stallion
who was gelded after arriving at BEHS, but he retained some of his stallion-like behaviors. This meant not a lot of people
were willing to take him on. He went to training and learned to walk, trot and canter under saddle – but he’s a hotter horse
and needed a rider who would enjoy that. He was adopted at the 2010 Bluebonnet Horse Expo to be his adopter’s first horse.
She had ridden horses for years for other people, but she now finally has her own. Congrats to Morgann and Aramis!

Adopted August 1, 2010 2009 sorrel grade gelding
Along with his dam, baby Arliss came into Bluebonnet during December of 2009. He was only about four months old. Sadly, after giving him all she had,
we (and Arliss) lost his mom two days after she arrived. This little guy had a pretty rough start in life, but has been thriving, learing and growing in his foster home. This
weekend, things took yet another turn for the better! Leonard T., a previous adopter had decided it was time to add a youngster to his herd and thought Arliss might be a good fit.
They met him this weekend, fell in love with the cute little guy and adopted him. Arliss went to his new home today! Congrats to all!! We look forward to watching Arliss grow up
and having a wonderful, happy life! Thanks to Leonard T. for giving yet another needy horse a loving home and a second chance at having a good life.

Adopted March 2010 2000 Bay Thoroughbred mare
Arwen has found her forever home! She came to BEHS last year as part of neglect case. She was underweight
but blossomed into a gorgeous horse. In her past life, Arwen was a winning racehorse. We don't know what happened between then and when
she arrived at BEHS, but we know that today she's gorgeous and healthier. And earlier today she met her adopter - and it was love at
first sight. Congrats to Arwen and Kambrah!

Babe came to BEHS last year as part of a neglect case involving over 50 horses and four agencies.

of a therapy program - she's getting plenty of love and helping deserving kids. Congrats to Babe and her new family!

Adopted October 2010 Approx. 1994 Appaloosa gelding
Banks came to BEHS in 2008. When he was removed from his negligent owners, he was a stallion and had been allowed to get away with bullying behavior.
Since he was a large pony, this made him difficult to place: he needed a small rider who wouldn't put up with his bad behavior. In the fall of 2010,
he met a family who put him to work. They took him on trail rides and gave him a job - and he excelled at it! He found his perfect place.
Add a thanks to Gayleen E.

Bjorna was discovered on the side of the road, abandoned. When she was discovered, Bjorna's legs
were covered in severe wounds. The veterinarian who saw her believes they were rope burns. Thanks to the care of her foster
home, the wounds have healed. Bjorna’s adopters fostered her for nearly a year but during that time, Bjorna had found a place
in their heart. They adopted her during the 2010 Bluebonnet Horse Expo. Congrats to Bjorna and the Hartman family!

Congratulations to Branigan O' Blue and her adopter Jenni D., a long time member of Bluebonnet Equine
Humane Society. Branigan was born into the rescue, after her dam, True Blue arrived already in foal. She is a little pistol, cute and
has a strong mind. This pretty little filly is as smart as a whip. She will make Jenni and her family a wonderful mount some day. For
now, they will enjoy her as a baby and continue to work with her on manners and ground work, getting her ready for the saddle in a couple of years.
Happy trails everyone!

Adopted 2010 Donkey jenny
Calamity Jane (CJ) was picked up right before Christmas as part of a neglect case. Her back hooves were
so deformed, possibly from neglect, that they were curled under. Her companion, a donkey jack, had died before law enforcement arrived.
Fortunately for CJ, rescuers arrived in time to save her and give her a second chance at life as her Christmas present. She was
placed with BEHS where she gained weight and proved to be a smart and sweet little donkey. Her back hooves did not seem to slow her down - she ran and
bucked and kicked in pasture. She was adopted by a family who has adopted from BEHS previously and goes to join Lancer as part of the Barnhill family.

Adopted 2010 Approx. 2006 Donkey gelding
Carlyle was running loose for a considerable period of time in Bastrop county until he was picked up by
Animal Control and donated to BEHS. He had not been handled much prior to coming to BEHS, and true to his donkey nature he wasn’t all
that interested in getting halter broke once he got here. He moved through a few foster homes, but his most recent home really fell in
love with him and decided to make him a part of her family.

Cassandra came to BEHS as part of a large neglect case that involved four different agencies. When she arrived, she
had not been handled much and was a hard horse to handle. She’s a big TB mare, and she could be intimidating. She went to training and came home
a changed horse. She was ridden English and sidesaddle in her foster home, and she came to the Expo expecting to show off her new sidesaddle skills.
Instead, she was one of the first horses adopted at the Expo. Her new family plans to send her to training to become a hunter/jumper for their daughter.
Congrats to Cassandra and the Bustamante family!

Celeste came to BEHS in 2006 - a little filly with a badly swollen and infected hock. For a long time, we didn't
think she would be sound to ride. But as she grew, put on weight and recovered, her leg got stronger. Her vet cleared her to start riding - and
she started looking for her forever home. It has taken her four long years. but this week, Celeste was adopted! She'll be going to live with a
family with draft horses in Texas. Congrats to Celeste and her new family!

Chicklet was born in BEHS. Her dam, Chili Chick, was removed from negligent
owners by law enforcement and placed with BEHS. When she arrived, we learned she was pregnant and in the spring of 2010 she gave birth to a
beautiful baby. Chicklet was such a looker that she caught everyone's eyes, and she was adopted right after she was weaned. We expect to hear great
things about her and her adopter!

Chili Chick came to Bluebonnet with her herd mates in November of 2009. She had been used in a childrens riding program
and was in foal. Baby Chicklet arrived in March of this year and was recently weaned, making Chili Chick available for adoption. Kandyce S. lived
nearby Chili's foster home, had met, fallen in love with and applied to adopt Chili - then waited for weaning of the baby. Chili went to her
new home last week! She is a very nice (and pretty!!) mare that will make a good trail/pleasure horse for her new adopters. Thanks to Kandyce S. for
giving Chili a family to call her own, that will love and give her the very best of care. We all look forward to updates about Chili and what she is
up to! Congrats and Happy Trails to all!!!

to decide they had to adopt them both. Congrats to Clay's Jasper, Shadow and the Poldrack family!

Cocoa came to BEHS in 2006, a very skinny weanling colt. It took him a long
time to gain weight, but he grew into a beautiful young horse. Cocoa is a sweet boy who learns quickly, and he loves getting attention from people.
His foster home taught him to carry a saddle and a bridle, and he was adopted in early 2010 by a young woman who kept working with him: starting
him over cavaletti and small jumps. She had to return Cocoa to BEHS because she was moving out of the country, but he was quickly adopted by another
family as a pleasure riding horse. Congrats to Cocoa and the Beshirs family!

Dottie is an adorable pony – from the legendary Chincoteague herd. Her previous owner bought her after the famous Chincoteague swim when she was

to BEHS. Dottie’s broke to ride and has been ridden by children and small adults. She was adopted by a family as a riding pony in 2006 and again in 2008. Both times she was
returned when her family outgrew her. This time, her foster home fell in love with her and adopted her for their kids.

Jabon came to BEHS in 2009 in very bad shape. She was part of a seizure of
17 horses, and her head was deformed. Her face looks "crooked" and her vet
feels she may have been kicked or stepped on as a foal. Her crooked face
gives her a cute look, but it means her teeth need regular attention to
insure she can eat her food. She was fostered for a year, and one day her
foster "mom" decided she hated the idea of letting Jabon go and adopted her.

her head into his chest. This little firecracker is also so sweet, how could you help but fall in love? She was adopted in 2007 but returned
when her adopters could not care for her. It did not take her to find a new home, and she’s now being trained for pleasure riding and barrels and doing great.

2004 miniature mare
Katelyn is a stunning, pinto miniature horse mare. The man who owned
Katelyn and her pasture-mates died. His family didn't know how to care for
them, and Katelyn and other new foals weren't handled or properly fed. When
she arrived at the rescue, Katelyn hadn't been halter trained and was very
underweight. Slowly, she gained weight and she learned about people. Her
adopters had not had horses before, but they fell in love with Katelyn and
decided to give her a home.

Lone Starlett was part of a large neglect case. She was removed in a joint effort between BEHS and law
enforcement and then placed with BEHS by the courts. She is a beautiful filly with a very feminine
look and correct conformation. Her calm, quiet disposition is a definite asset. She will come when
called in an open field and readily sticks her head in a halter. This filly is smart, and her
willingness to learn makes her easily trained. She leads, stands quietly when tied, and is very
flexible and sensitive to pressure. Lone Starlett competed in the 2010 Bluebonnet Rescue Horse
Training Challenge and won her category, youth handler, with her trainer, Kayden. Lone Starlett
caught her adopter’s eye at the Expo and during the challenge, and she was adopted that day.
Congrats to Lone Starlett and Beverly!

Zezz came to BEHS in May 2009 along with fifty-six other horses as part of a neglect case. Zezz and the other stallions were all kept in
stalls, and many of the stalls were several feet deep with compacted manure. They had little access to water and almost no food. When rescuers went to let them out
of stalls, many of the latches on the stall doors were rusted shut. Zezz recovered, was gelded and began the long road to rehabilitation. He has a lip tattoo and from
that we were able to determine that he had been raced twice as a young horse, coming in 1st and 3rd. After that, we’re not sure what training he had but his foster home
found he was well-trained to ride and seemed to enjoy being ridden. His foster “mom” says he’s the happiest horse she’s ever known, always waiting at the gate for her with
his ears up and a happy look on his face. He was adopted and now shares a home with another BEHS horse, River.

Zodiac came into the rescue in October of 2008 completely blind but broke to ride and just a nice boy to be around. His new family met him and decided to
provide all the love and attention he needs. Congratulation to the Krause family!
