Adoptable Horses

Red

Red is actively looking for his forever home... The handsome guy is an approx. 28 year-old 16-hand chestnut Quarter Horse/Thoroughbred gelding.
Red is sound and healthy. He has just completed extensive refresher courses in groundwork and under saddle training and is looking and feeling great. He gets along well with both people and other horses. He is gentle and willing and would be wonderful for the right experienced rider who enjoys riding in an arena or on trail.

D'Artagnan

D'Artagnan is looking for his new forever home. He is a very handsome, approx. 20 yr. old TB gelding, 16 hands, who is very personable, sweet and willing. He is sound and would love to have his very own person. D'Artagnan has not been trained for the trail and would be better suited for someone who wants to play in the arena or around the ranch. He has been with us for some time now and has received extensive training using natural horsemanship methods. He requires an experienced and confident horseperson to share his life with.

Please contact us at connect@calcoastalhorserescue.com if you would like more info on Jessica.

Melody      ADOPTED!
Jessica out on trail! We love how she is out in front and just going for it!
Melody is a 15-year-old Arabian mare. This very sweet girl is finished with her rehabilitation and is looking for a new person to share her life with! She is a small mare, about 14.1 hands, and she moves beautifully. She will need someone who will definitely keep an eye on her weight as she has a very healthy appetite!

Willie      ADOPTED!

Willie is an adorable 17 year old Tennessee Walking Horse (he gaits!), 14.1 hands, sturdy, healthy, and sweet as can be! As cute and little as he is, he's not a kids horse. A small adult who is a confident rider is ideal for him.
He gaits and is smooth to ride! When Willie arrived at CCHR he had not been ridden consistently in a very long time (only occasionally taken out on trail with other horses). He has had an extensive refresher course in groundwork and is getting back into shape for consistent riding. Willie is recovering from a nasty hoof abscess that left him quite sore, but is slowly getting back to being ridden. He is a bit stiff from not having been consistently worked and is slowly regaining muscle and flexibility. We have been riding him around the arena at a walk and hacking around the property getting him comfortable with being ridden again and exposing him to trail obstacles. He is doing great! A bit anxious and lacking confidence so he needs a confident and patient horse person/rider to help him regain his confidence (he is not a kids horse). He is soft in the mouth and responds well to cues. He gaits and is smooth to ride. Hacking around the rescue ranch he has been exposed to chickens, pigs, walking across tarps, and a whole lot of other obstacles, with very minimal spookiness. Location: Located at CCHR ranch in the Ojai Valley in Ventura County, CA. For more info: Message our dedicated adoptions page @Adopt Me - California Coastal Horse Rescue Adoptables. 

Pancho      ​ADOPTED!

Pancho the Handsome Palomino is one of our newer herd members. He is a QH gelding about 14 years old and around 14.1 hds. He is available for adoption but is still green under saddle and in training. He is coming along nicely and will make a nice little project for an experienced horse person. He likes attention and is quite affectionate! Training Progress: Pancho arrived to CCHR earlier this year and in the first couple months greatly improved his ground manners and ground work skills. He then began training under saddle and we quickly learned how green he was. We started slow and went back to basics with him. He is still learning but is a smart horse and in the past 8 weeks has greatly improved his “brakes and gas pedal”, steering, flexibility, and responsiveness to the bit. He is getting better at walk trot transitions and just beginning to try cantering under saddle. He has more whoa than go and is easy going. Just started hacking around the ranch and though he lacks confidence he has a lot of try and is willing. He is looking for a loving forever home with an experienced horse person who has the skills and patience to bring him further along in his training.
