Beauty

Unknown · Senior · 10 years

Inside Beauty is a very sensitive mare who needs a patient, experienced person to gain her trust and a steady hand to help her develop. Unfortunately, due to her age, she was unable to learn as much as she could have. Once she has gained trust, she enjoys interacting with people. She started her career as a racehorse and was retired due to a chip operation. Beauty came to us with pseudo narcolepsy, and although it has improved, we have not yet found the cause to completely eliminate the behavior. Therefore, riding is not an option at this time. Due to her sleep deprivation, she tends to be aggressive and highly sensitive. Therefore, we only give her to very experienced hands, preferably with thoroughbred experience and ideally experience with REM sleep deprivation. Beauty is a high-ranking mare and will likely establish herself as the herd leader. She is looking for a clear but also very sensitive person to give her.

Nicht zuletzt aufgrund ihres Alters kann sie noch einiges dazulernen. Diese Zeit konnte für sie leider nicht mehr aufgebracht werden. Inside Beauty ist sehr sensibel und braucht eine geduldige, erfahrene, Person um Vertrauen zu fassen und eine sichere Hand um sich weiterzuentwickeln. Wenn sie Vertrauen gefasst hat, genießt sie den Umgang mit dem Menschen. Sie ist als Rennpferd gestartet und mit einer Chip OP ausgeschieden. Beauty kam mit Pseudo Narkolepsie zu uns und auch, wenn es sich schon gebessert hat, haben wir immer noch nicht die Ursache gefunden, um das Verhalten ganz abzustellen. An Reiten ist daher erstmal nicht zu denken. Durch ihren Schlafmangel neigt sie zu Aggression und hoher Sensibilität. Daher geben wir sie nur in sehr erfahrene Hände, vorzugsweise mit Vollbluterfahrung und bestenfalls Erfahrung mit REM-Schlafmangel. Beauty ist ranghoch und wird sich mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit als Herdenchefin etablieren. Sie sucht daher einen klaren aber auch sehr feinfühligen Menschen, damit sie abgeben kann.

About Beauty

What life with Beauty looks like

Beauty is a senior horse waiting at Kölner Schutzhof für Pferde in Köln.

Adopting a horse is a long-term commitment that almost always requires either land or a boarding stable. The shelter will discuss the horse's training level, vet history, and what kind of work or companionship they're suited for. Expect ongoing costs: feed, farrier, vet, and stabling.

🇩🇪Adopting from Germany

German rescues typically require an in-person home visit (Vorkontrolle) or detailed video home check before approving adoption. Animals leave the shelter sterilized, microchipped, and with a valid EU pet passport. Adoption fees usually fall between €250 and €450, covering veterinary preparation.

Frequently asked

Adopting Beauty, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Beauty?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Kölner Schutzhof für Pferde handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Beauty on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Beauty if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Kölner Schutzhof für Pferde will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Beauty already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most horses on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Beauty isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Kölner Schutzhof für Pferde early rather than rehoming privately; they know Beauty and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
