THANK YOU SUZIE for making Ethel a member of your family. We know that she will be a happy horse in a loving home. We are grateful that her life story has changed for the better!

Go Ethel! Ethel is building her resume by learning all the skills she needs to be a good equine citizen. Ethel's foster mom is working with her feet extensively and reports that Ethel did quite well for her recent farrier visit. Ethel is 13 years old, about 15.1 hands and stocky. While she is sound and healthy, and we think she has potential for a riding career, she is not started under saddle and would need training to become a riding horse. Ethel's specialty is companionship -- she loves babies and oldsters alike. She is a sweet horse with a kind disposition, but she is still learning her basics. She’s also a good girl when being tied, groomed and having her feet cleaned. Ethel ranks high in looks, personality and health. She would be a wonderful companion horse or to bring along as a training project. She is an attentive and eager learner and has been very well-behaved on the lunge line. She has received her vaccinations, deworming, and had her feet trimmed. Most importantly, she received much-needed dental work to correct pretty significant dental issues that were present merely because nobody had worked on her teeth before. Now, she is GOOD AS NEW and has a clean bill of health from the veterinarian. Through all of her rehabilitation, Ethel has been a team player and has trusted the people around her to help her. She is personable, gentle and loves attention. She is ready to be adopted into a forever loving home. Help us find Ethel her fairy tale ending soon- she has been in foster care for a year now and is ready for that special person to call her own. Ethel's adoption fee is $150 to approved lifetime home. Please call 707-570-7050 or email director@sonomachangeprogram.com for more information or to inquire about adopting Ethel.
