SPIFF

Rescued in December 2025. Seeking Sponsor. In Training/Rehabilitation.

Spiff is a 15hh, 9-year-old Standardbred who started on the racetrack (a pacer) and wound up an Amish buggy horse. When we found him in Western PA, he was broken down and starving to death- take a look at the edema under his belly in the early photos.

Including his month in quarantine, Spiff was given six months of rest and recuperation before embarking on a vet-directed strengthening plan. He learned to make friends for the first time, gained weight and muscle, became affectionate and eager to engage, and generally just came to life. He is not yet 100% sound, but he is on the path. Our hope is that he can become a riding horse this year.
