The Minnesota Hooved Animal Rescue Foundation (MHARF), located in Zimmerman, MN, is an all-volunteer non-profit organization established to match rescued and rehabilitated horses (over 100/year) with appropriate and loving adoptive homes.

Everything we sell has been donated to MHARF. After covering the minimal fees associated with selling on Ebay, the purchase price for each item goes directly to MHARF to help cover the cost of rescuing, rehabilitating, and keeping the horses until they find their permanent homes. Because we deal entirely with donated items (many pre-owned), all items are sold as is. We do our best to inspect every item before listing, but unfortunately we can't offer any guarantees. Please email us with questions before bidding! Thanks for helping the horses!

MHARF works to link horses in need of new owners with adoptive homes. For more than 15 years, MHARF has been rescuing abused and neglected horses and accepting donated horses to give them a chance at a better life. Many of our horses are injured, weak and ill due to extreme neglect, starvation or old age. With proper care and medical attention, they almost always go on to have a good life with a new owner. Other horses we receive are young and sound, but have owners who can no longer care for them. Over the years we have built strong connections with law enforcement officials, and with the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Minnesota. We often work together with local police to follow up humane complaints or to serve warrants where necessary to rescue neglected and/or abused horses. When we find horses in need of serious medical attention or near death, we immediately contact the U of M, where they are admitted and receive the care they need.

We accept (and prefer) payment by Paypal. However, we will accept a postal money order or a cashier's check. Please contact us for instructions if you would like to pay this way.

Shipping charges should be clearly listed with each item. I'll do my best to use whichever shipping method is most cost-effective for larger items. Small items will most likely be shipped through the USPS.

MHARF is a non-profit organization. All of these items have been donated and are sold as is. Accepting returned items reduces the funding necessary to provide food, shelter, veterinary care, farrier work, and retraining for the horses. If an item has been represented incorrectly in the listing, please contact us to see what we can work out. Otherwise, please ask all kinds of questions before bidding so we can be sure you are happy with the item the first time. If needed, we will refund your purchase price, but you will be responsible for the original shipping cost and the return shipping cost.

At MHARF we believe that the end of the race shouldn't be the end of the line for thoroughbreds. In 2007, MHARF formalized a cooperative relationship with Canterbury Park in Shakopee, MN. Together, we are committed to saving thoroughbreds for second careers when their racing careers end. Many of these smart, sensitive, and talented horses excel in dressage, eventing, pleasure and trail riding (just to name a few things...) . MHARF has taken in more than 50 ex-racehorses and has found most of them loving new homes.
