Mixed Breed · Female · Senior · 9 years

About Nakoma

What life with Nakoma looks like

Nakoma is a senior mixed breed horse waiting at Animal Sans Toit in Faimes.

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

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting Nakoma, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Nakoma?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Animal Sans Toit handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Nakoma on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Nakoma if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a horse can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Animal Sans Toit what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Nakoma already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a horse comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Animal Sans Toit directly what is included and what Nakoma still needs.
What happens if Nakoma 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 Animal Sans Toit early rather than rehoming privately; they know Nakoma 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.
