Josie

Josie is a lovely jet black Quarter horse mare whom we estimate to be about 20 years old. Not much is known about Josie's past other than that she had been a brood-mare, and we think she may also have been a halter horse, and may be broke to ride.

How Mylestone came to rescue Josie was through the same unique circumstance that has sometimes brought other horses in need to the farm. One of our current horses, Lena, had just passed away, and she left her stall door open for Josie when she needed it most. Josie was abandoned by her owner at a local farm, and although someone looked out for her, she couldn't afford to take her. Unwanted on the farm, Josie faced the auction and possibly, slaughter, possibly research.

There's something very special about Josie; she has a very tranquil quality, and soon after her arrival her kind and patient nature helped a recent arrival, Clyde, to settle down. Now they are great friends.

Josie is currently under evaluation and not yet ready for adoption. We will provide further details as she progresses. Meanwhile you can sponsor Josie or make a donation and contribute to her care.
