Adopt Gallagher

Male

Found abandoned on an unkempt swampy area with a heavily disabled pony, Gallagher's condition was also disappointing: the entire length of her mane was tangled in wild plants, but what best demonstrated the abandonment by her former owner was the length of her hooves. This serious neglect had caused internal damage to her joints. Very sensitive to the eyes, the neglect that Gallagher suffered allowed untreated uveitis to develop, which left her almost completely blind. Despite this disability or perhaps because of it, she is very attentive to everything going on around her. Gallagher seems to have not known much and becomes stressed quite quickly, yet this does not prevent her from being a bundle of tenderness when she is calm.

Read original (fr)

Retrouvé délaissé sur un terrain marécageux non entretenu avec un poney lourdement handicapé, l'état de Gallagher laissait lui aussi à désirer : l'entièreté de ses crins était emmêlé dans des plantes sauvages, mais ce qui démontre le mieux la démission de son ancienne propriétaire était la longueur de ses sabots. Cette négligence grave avait provoqué des lésions internes à ses articulations. Très sensible des yeux, la négligence qu'a subie Gallagher a laissé se développer des uvéites non soignées à leur tour et qui l'ont rendu presque complètement aveugle. Malgré ce handicap ou à cause de celui-ci, il est très attentif à tout ce qu'il se passe autour de lui. Gallagher semble n'avoir pas connu grand chose et stresse assez vite, ce qui ne fait pas moins de lui une boule de tendresse lorsqu'il est calme. Rue du Haut Aulnoy n°29, 7822 Meslin l'Evêque

About Gallagher

What life with Gallagher looks like

Gallagher is a adult horse waiting at Animaux en Péril ASBL in Belgium.

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 Belgium

Belgian shelters operate under regional law (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels each have their own rules). All adoptions include the Eurochip, vaccinations, and a stewardship contract. Several Flemish shelters partner with Dutch and German rescue networks.

Frequently asked

Adopting Gallagher, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Gallagher?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animaux en Péril ASBL handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Gallagher on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Gallagher if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Animaux en Péril ASBL 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 Gallagher 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 Gallagher 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 Animaux en Péril ASBL early rather than rehoming privately; they know Gallagher 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 (FR). 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.
