Horses' Haven - Ponies and Minis
Due to the sensitive nature of rescue work some of our horses are not listed on our website. Occasionally there are cases where photo ID will be requested in the beginning phases of adoption inquiries to ensure safe placement of our ponies.
Please note that we are not a foster based rescue and all of our animals are housed onsite at our beautiful farm in Howell, MI.
If you are interested in sponsoring or adopting any of the animals below, please contact us today!
ALVIN
Breed: Minature Horse Sex: Gelding Age: 10 Height: 9.2hh Color: Chestnut
Adoption Fee: $500
Are you looking for the perfect little mini to add to your heard? Well look no further because Alvin is your guy. This little miniature horse is a true gem and has quickly won the hearts of farm. With his sweet personality, good manners, and kind heart, Alvin is as perfect as they get. He has shown us good manners for leading, handling, and grooming, and will eagerly greet you for attention.
Alvin is up to date on all medical needs but as for all ponies, he would require proper pasture and diet management to keep him healthy, in addition to routine care and exercise so that he continues to build proper muscle.
Alvin has no training under saddle or being driven, so at this time he would make an adorable companion. We truly can’t say enough good things about this little guy. Alvin is looking for an experienced horseperson who can properly manage miniature horses in a companion home.
Alvin will be available for adoption at Equine Affaire Ohio 4/10 - 4/13, if you would like to be pre-approved for adoption, contact us!
CISCO
Breed: Shetland Cross Sex: Gelding Age: 18 Height: 10.0hh Color: Dark Bay
Adoption Fee: $350
3/7/25 Cisco is a handsome little Shetland cross with lots of personality spunk. What he lacks in size he makes up for in attitude. We are still getting to know this little guy and don’t have too much to share about him so stay tuned for updates!
Cisco can be a little shy and standoffish at first but is overall a gentleman once caught and he has shown us good manners for leading, and standing for the vet. He wild need time and patience to become comfortable with being touched behind the withers, he's currently very reactive, and will kick out hard when trying to groom or pick up back feet.
He has no training for riding or driving so at this point he would require a companion only home, and as for all ponies he would require pasture and forage management to maintain a proper weight. At this time we still feel that he would do best with a confident handler who can continue to working on good manners. If you would like to add a spunky little companion to your herd, Cisco is your guy!
MARIAH
Breed: Pony Sex: Mare Age: 25+ Height: 12.2hh Color: Black
Suitable for: Companion
Adoption Fee: $350 (eligible for fee-waived companion adoption)
What she lacks in size, this pony makes up for in personality. Mariah is a fun and spunky old gal who is 25+ (she feels it’s impolite to ask a lady her age). She came to us very underweight and in poor condition, but with proper dental and medical care, she is regaining her weight at a steady pace, though she still has some ways to go until she is at a proper weight.
As with all ponies, she requires proper pasture management in order to maintain her health. Mariah did not have any formal under saddle training in her younger years, but does enjoy being groomed. She does have Cushing’s disease and requires light maintenance (Prascend) to keep her healthy.
Mariah is a fun little pony with lots of spunk and personality, she is sweet and social and does well in a group of horses. Mariah is looking for her next partner in crime and would love to have a nice retirement home as a companion.
THEODORE
Breed: Miniature Horse Sex: Gelding Age: 8 Height: 9hh Color: Chestnut
Suitable for: Companion
Adoption Fee: $500
Meet Theodore! Theodore is a sweet little guy with a big heart and lots left to give. He has good manners for leading, handling, and grooming. Theodore can be a bit shy at first but once he warms up to you he will readily greet you at the gate.
Theodore is up to date on all medical needs but does have a minor case of DSLD, however he is still sound and comfortable and has passed a soundness exam including x-rays. As for all ponies he would require proper pasture management and limited grass to maintain a healthy weight.
He has no training under saddle or for driving so he would be companion only at this point. Theodore is truly a sweet little guy who would love a quiet home as a companion with an experienced horseperson who can manage his needs.
