Spencer

Male · Young · 3 years

Meet Spencer, a young gelding just 3 years old who is looking for a loving home. Spencer is still at the beginning of his life, but unfortunately he can no longer be trained under saddle due to mild ataxia and has a umbilical hernia. Therefore, we are looking for a nice place where nothing is expected of him and where he can just be a horse. Because Spencer is still so young, we give him a place where he can enjoy many years. A nice home with fellow horses, enough space to move around and people who want to give him the love and care he deserves. So we are looking for a golden house for Spencer where he can lead a carefree life as a companion horse. Will you give this young gelding a good future? Or do you know someone who might have the perfect place for Spencer? Please feel free to contact us. Maybe you are the one who can give Spencer the loving home he is looking for.

Maak kennis met Spencer, een jonge ruin van pas 3 jaar oud die op zoek is naar een liefdevol thuis. Spencer staat nog aan het begin van zijn leven, maar helaas kan hij niet meer beleerd worden onder het zadel vanwege lichte ataxie en heeft hij een navelbreuk. Daarom zoeken we voor hem een fijne plek waar niets van hem verwacht wordt en waar hij gewoon lekker paard mag zijn. Omdat Spencer nog zo jong is, gunnen we hem een plek waar hij nog vele jaren kan genieten. Een fijn thuis met soortgenootjes, voldoende ruimte om lekker te bewegen en mensen die hem de liefde en verzorging willen geven die hij verdient. Voor Spencer zoeken we dus een gouden huisje waar hij een onbezorgd leven kan leiden als gezelschapspaard. Gun jij deze jonge ruin een mooie toekomst? Of ken je iemand die misschien de perfecte plek heeft voor Spencer? Neem dan gerust contact met ons op. Misschien ben jij wel degene die Spencer het liefdevolle thuis kan geven waar hij zo naar op zoek is.

About Spencer

What life with Spencer looks like

Spencer is a young adult horse waiting at Paard zoekt baas in Ambt Delden.

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 Netherlands

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 Spencer, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Spencer?: Use the "View on shelter website" button on this page, which takes you to the shelter's own page. Paard zoekt baas handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Spencer on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Spencer 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 Paard zoekt baas what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is Spencer already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: TailHarbor has no vaccination, microchip or sterilization details for Spencer. The adoption fee, and what it covers, is set by Paard zoekt baas, so confirm with them what is included (vaccinations, microchip, sterilization, paperwork) and ask about specific vaccines, recent bloodwork or chronic conditions.
What happens if Spencer isn't the right fit?: Many rescues take an animal back if an adoption doesn't work, but policies differ, so ask Paard zoekt baas about its return policy before you adopt. If things aren't working, talk it through with them early rather than rehoming privately; they know Spencer 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 (NL). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
