Fresh Start Sport Horses in Piru is looking for volunteers! This is a non profit 501(c)(3) organization specializing in retraining Thoroughbreds for new careers. Over the years we have adopted out over 150 horses!
We are accepting volunteers any day of the week between 8am-3pm approximately. Come for an hour or stay all day!
Our horses live in huge stalls and go out in grass pasture. They are trained by kind and skilled riders and we are accepting more riders with green horse experience that can teach horses on the flat and to jump. We have a one mile track that is perfect for getting greenies used to trail and for warm up/cool down.
Looking for animal loving and respectful people as this is a farm that is often used in movies etc. Great learning experience for someone wanting to become a professional groom or trainer!

Hi guys! We are going to be leasing an additional irrigated grass pasture for our horses! Our horses are so lucky to be able to be out on grass which is extremely rare in the Los Angeles area. If you would like to sponsor our new pasture you can scan the QR code below to donate via Zeffy or go to our website for other options (Freshstartsporthorses.org). Donate once or set up a recurring donation. The rent for the new pasture is $3500/month. Can we raise that? Anything helps! ❀️❀️

New video available of Meteor! He is a 5yr old 16.2 gelding by Quality Road. Very sweet and willing guy. It took him a bit to figure out steering and such, but he's now at a point where he is progressing nicely each ride. He enjoys going out on trail, and he has been started over poles and very small cross rails. Jumping video coming next week!
Lower adoption fee currently as he is not super easy or suited for beginner, but he is a quality horse and doesn't have any vices.

Conformation shots. This is really not the easiest thing to do. This horse has great conformation, but we've been ghosted by 3-4 people that were a perfect fit for this guy after sending his pictures. This guy is built uphill, has a short back, thick but nice neck that is lovely when he moves. He has long legs that are straight and he doesn't toe in or out. He has nice mobility in his entire body and is one of the most athletic horses I've personally seen. You really need to see horses in person. And personally, most of my FEI horses have had some serious conformational flaws compared to this guy.

Dental day for some of our young ones yesterday. Even 3 and 4yr olds can be sharp, and on the track horses are generally not powerfloated and only get their first premolars taken care of. Here is one of our 4yr olds, he was super sharp in the back of his mouth, and I had noticed discomfort under saddle the past few weeks and stopped riding him until the vet could come out.
Remember to have your horses teeth checked regularly!

Congrats to recently placed horses and their new owners πŸ₯°πŸ₯°
Najiba was placed with our friend as a dressage and jumping prospect, and we get to keep her around for a bit more training 😍
Frasard went to San Diego as an eventing horse. Bittersweet as he felt part of the family at this point ❀️
Percolate went to Hawaii as a dressage prospect! πŸ₯° I knew we wouldn't get to keep him long being as sweet and easy going as he was but he will be missed and can't wait to see how he does moving up the levels ❀️❀️

New dressage video of our super adorable Arabian gelding Kadar. He is 8yrs old, 15.3 hands and placed in huge classes at the East Coast Arabian Championships (hunt seat). He's been in training for dressage and jumping, and he is also a great trail horse. He could do anything from low-level eventing to training up to FEI in dressage. Really fun and intelligent horse! Not hot at all. Can't say anything negative about him, possibly that he's too cute?

New video of Gritty! She is a really sweet and gorgeous 4yr old 16.3 hand mare by Street Boss X Into Mischief. She recently came off the track and has been eased into our program. She's had less than 10 rides off the track so far and will stay in full training until adopted. She is forward and willing and progressing every ride. Really nice prospect for any discipline.

Video coming soon of this guy! 😍 5yr old 16.2 Kentucky bred gelding that sold for a whopping $320k and only ran once and finished last. His sire and dam sire both won multiple million on the track (he is by Quality Road out of a mare by Medaglia D'oro). He's a super cute and sweet guy that has been in training for a bit but still green and still needs work on his steering. If you're looking for a project he is a nice one!

Hello everyone! We are looking for board members for our charity to help build the organization so we can do more. Our board is very small, with one member having moved abroad, another is moving away shortly, and one is a traveling musician. So basically when I say we, I'm pretty much talking about myself in 3rd person 😜
I'm with the horses 7 days a week, feeding and taking care of them and riding them. I don't have a lot of free time after to take care of the business side and build the business to the point where we can receive grants and so on.
We have monthly board meetings and can change time and location of them to accommodate new members.
You don't need to be an experienced horse person, just someone interested in building an organization that is very motivated to do right by the horses in our program.
Feel free to message here or call text me directly at 954-439-3101.

Frasard jumping today 😍😍🀐🫒 Frasard quickly became a favorite for our friend who visited for a few weeks this summer. So crazy he hasn't found a home yet! πŸ€” He's a very handsome chestnut gelding who came from the UK and had a successful racing career. While he needed some time to figure out his next job he's turned in to a lovely fun guy suited for any job! He is available as low as in the 4-figs despite his scope!
