Candy
Words cannot express how sad we are that Candy is gone, but we are thrilled that she is now being spoiled at a wonderful facility with a woman who loves only her and her three pasture buddies. She is a wonderful horse that will be missed, and one that has touched so many with her gentle heart.
Misty
Misty, our sweet and willing pony, found a home with an adorable little boy who saved his allowance for a whole year to adopt her. It was love at first sight and the two have trotted off into the sunset! We will miss you, Misty!
Buck - a- Roo
Buck, a fast barrel racing sweetheart, was adopted by a family who will match his athletic ability while still spoiling him rotten. His new digs include two spicy mares, 400 acres of farmland and a cozy barn with his two new ladies!
Sassy
Sassy, a QH/Percheron cross was adopted by a woman who hopes to trail ride into the sunset. A fantastic horsewoman, Sassy will want for nothing in her new home. We wish you both much happiness!
Julliet
Julliet, our resident Belgian, was adopted by Green Gate Farm in Princess Anne. Julliet shall be spoiled by the women who come for healing, therapy and love. Julliet hates to be ridden, but will stand forever to be loved on. We couldnt think if a better place for her!
Little Loni Lu Lu
This story is an inspiration to all kids who want a horse of their own. Lottie was adopted by a 14 year old boy who spent his entire summer working for her. He worked at home, mucked stalls, worked at the SWS and babysat for this horse. He also kept up with his chores and met his parents' demands. He took lessons on her prior to adopting and the two formed a wonderful bond of friendship that will not soon be lost. This horse truly has a special home and we are thrilled that they found one another.
Pokey AKA Sundancer
Pokey, a baby dapple grey TB mare, was left by her owner, due to a fast relocation. She was adopted by a Parelli student who plans on training her and loving her very much. We couldn't be happier - and neither can Pokey!
Katie
Katie (aka Looks Like Mom) was donated to the SWS as a lesson program retiree. She is a huge, black TB mare who needed one owner to love her. Instead, she found 2! She was adopted by a Mom who plans to trail ride and a little girl who plans to learn all about horses with her. Katie loves her new home, and is enjoying her semi-retirement on the trail! Good Luck Katie, we will miss you here!
Jack
Jack, a "wild" mustang SPCA rescue was adopted by a wonderful woman named Veronica who spoils him rotten. In addition to his own grassy pasture and barn, he is spoiled by a family who loves him. Jack was a starvation case that was impounded by the SPCA. After a year and a half, he was donated to the SWS as "un-ridable and stubborn". Jack now trots happily with his owner, who has trained him using a gentle and soft approach. Happy trails, Jack!
Dandy
Dandy, an older gentleman, was donated to the SWS by a therapeutic riding program in NJ. After a brief time here, he was adopted by the family in Lewes who also adopted Rosie. He has green pastures, and an 11 year old little girl who loves him. Dandy loves his new home and all the TLC he gets!
Con-Man
Con was adopted by a family who plans to spoil him rotten. He is in heaven with his new barn and green pasture grass. They love him as much as we do, and we look forward to hearing about the great things he has yet to accomplish.
