Serenity's Mission is multi-faceted and includes rescue, rehabilitation, education and healing. After rescue and rehabilitation, we work to place our horses into loving permanent homes. We are passionate about providing a natural and focused care plan for each of our resident equines including physical and emotional rehabilitation and training. We are also committed to supporting the equine community through our Education Center clinics and courses for horse owners to help them to provide the best care for their horses. We perform welfare checks and help those in our community who need support to keep their horses if they have fallen on hard times through the Jasper Family Community Fund. We believe that the relationship between humans and horses is a very special one. Many of our volunteers and others have experienced a special gift of healing when working or visiting the farm. Our Horses as Healers program focuses on healing and developing life skills.
1. Check out our available horses. Once you have determined the horse(s) you are interested in please contact Patricia and make arrangements to come for a visit. We want to be sure that the horse(s) will be a good fit for you and the type of riding you intend to do. 2. Submit a pre-adoption application. We cannot process an incomplete application, so please fill out all fields. 3. We invite you to include property photos to expedite the process. If you live more than 50 miles from our farm, current pictures of your facility are required. Pictures must include shelter areas, stalls, turnout, and fences. 4. Your application will be reviewed and processed, you will be contacted if you are pre-approved. 5. We will make an appointment for you to spend time with the horse. We ask that you come at least two times to work with our trainer. Serenity covers this cost. Again, we want to be sure that you are a good fit for each other. 6. A site visit is performed before final approval. 7. Once approved, you pay the adoption fee and sign our legally binding adoption contract. At this time the horse is formally adopted and may be transported to its new home. Any horse unable to be taken directly to its new home at the time of adoption (when the adoption fee is paid) can board at Serenity for a pro-rated boarding fee based on our monthly costs, which is currently $550. The fee must be paid and processed before the horse is released. The boarding fee does not include veterinary care, farrier services, or other incidental costs.

Seattle Humane promotes the human-animal bond by saving and serving pets in need, regardless of age, ability, circumstance or geography. Our community expects all adoptable animals to be humanely cared for and placed into loving homes, and keeping pets with families avoids pet homelessness. We get them here, get them healthy and happy, and get them home.
