Jasper is a 15 year old TB gelding rescued from CBER in June. He is a sweet, beautiful horse that we were told was ridden by kids. He is blind in his left eye, but that doesn't bother him much. Here is Jasper in June at the feedlot: And in foster care: Being assessed for his "child-proofness" (he passed!): And with his wonderful new family, who also adopted our dear Olly. Their two girls are also "rescues", adopted from a bad situation, and hopefully Jasper and Olly will help them heal their emotional wounds as well as they have helped these two lucky horses:

Update on our Jasper!
Jasper is a fine riding horse and Megan spends many hours each week riding him on trails around our place and on a three mile or so unpaved access road. He is unflappable. She is not interested in showing or 4-H at this time but he has lots of possibilities. His blind eye is not troublesome.

Many thanks to sunrisestables for doing a follow up visit to Jasper and Olly's adoptive home. Both are doing well. They have several other horses now and a brand new beautiful barn. Here are some photos of Jasper: New stalls:
