Adopt Quincy

Mixed Breed · Male

Quincy has been part of our wild herd since early 2018. The stallion suffers from narcolepsy alongside a few other minor health issues. This sleep disorder, which causes sudden sleep attacks when affected horses are at rest, has led to Quincy falling unexpectedly to the ground and injuring himself multiple times. Since Quincy joined our wild herd, we have noticed a remarkable improvement. Now, we can safely pen him with the other horses and mares without boot covers!

Quincy gehört seit dem Frühjahr 2018 zu unserer krassen Herde. Der Wallach leidet neben ein paar kleineren Wehwehchen vor allem an Narkolepsie. Diese Schlafkrankheit bzw. Schlafstörung führt zu plötzlichen Ausfällen, wenn die betroffenen Pferde zur Ruhe kommen. Quincy fiel z. B. in der Box immer wieder völlig unerwartet um und verletzte sich dabei. Seit Quincy bei unserer krassen Herde ist, können wir eine erstaunliche Verbesserung feststellen. Inzwischen können wir ihn beruhigt ohne Gamaschen zu den anderen Pferden und Stuten in den Stall stellen!

About Quincy

What life with Quincy looks like

Quincy is a adult mixed breed horse waiting at Unsere krasse Herde in Germany.

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 Quincy, answered.

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