Our JR has found his forever home with his foster mom, Mara.
"I've been thinking a while now about sweet JR, and I made the decision to want to adopt him and give him his forever home he so deserves. He is very happy here, and the probability of someone coming along to adopt him is relatively low. He trusts me, and I don't want him to be shuffled around and have to go through the anxiety one more time in his old age. Like I said before, he is wonderful with the kids, and I can trust him fully with Micah, and to have that is a gem in my eyes."
I am so happy today...after everything that JR has been through, he cannot find a better home to live out his years. Thank you Mara!!!!

I am so unbelievably thrilled. Mara, thank you SO MUCH for making this decision. It is so wonderful to know that he has a permanent place with people and horses who love him so much. You are an angel.

Wow, you guys are making me tear up! Thank you for your kind words everyone. This guy has stole my heart, and we just love him, and I couldn't go on any longer without giving him a guarantee that nothing will change for him anymore. Thank you to SAFE and everyone involved for sending him my way. He's officially JR (aka Junior Mint) Avery! ;D

Oh that's SO great. His odds of finding someone who would give him all the special care he needs were so slim...it's great he will be staying with you and will never have to worry again!

After all he's been through, he deserves this kind of finality. I am so happy for him... and YOU! He looks gorgeous now.
Good job to everybody at SAFE who spent all the time and energy to rescue him AGAIN and give him his REAL forever home.
