"Cody"
Registered Quarter Horse Gelding. 5 yo 17.0 HH

Cody is with us for special circumstances. Because of these, we are being very frank with his situation and will only adopt him out to someone who wants Cody for what he is now and what he could be down the road. He belonged to a client of our veterinarian who did a pre-purchase exam on him two years ago. He passed the vetting with no issues and was sold for a large amount of money as a Hunter Under Saddle horse. He recently had some soundness issues come up, the owners spent almost $10k trying to diagnose a problem (bone scan, MRI, etc) but nothing could be found to cause the hind end lameness. He was given to PARR so we could find him a new home, hopefully with someone who could give him a job. Our vet continued her own work up of him and eventually tested him for EPM (which came back positive).  He had the full most expensive best treatments available. He does still have some muscle atrophy issues in his back end on the left side, and is not quite 100% sound still at this time, but she feels so many horses as young as he is, very often recover and go on to have normal careers again with some TIME. He is young, healthy, and vibrant and it would be a shame to give up on him over something that many horses can move on and have careers agin. The owners are willing to retire him as just a pet, but hope that maybe PARR can find him the perfect person who would want to take a chance on Cody, give him the time to recover, not give up on him, and at worst have a pleasure/trail type horse and at best have a very nice show quality horse do go any direction. He has jumped and shown. He has no vices, he is an in your pocket personality type, incredibly sweet and kind.  He is young so he is still somewhat green, but what a beautiful and handsome fellow he is!

He will be available for adoption to a special home within 2 hours of Harrisburg, PA
and come with a contract that if he doesn't work out, PARR has to be given first right of refusal and the chance to find him a suitable home etc. He can not be given away to someone else, change of ownership etc without PARR's permission.

Important Note About Meeting / Trying PARR Horses
PARR horses are not in active programs, they are waiting for their new homes to start their new jobs. They are often ridden once for a video and hanging out in field, stall at track, or being turned out at a foster farm the remainder of days while they wait to be adopted. Therefore, we do not allow PARR horses to be tried(ridden) for the best interest of the horse and liability risks for the owners, connections, trainers, etc. If a horse is new off the track, we may only adopt to an experienced rider, or capable rider working with a trainer. They will need to return to a program typical of a horse that is either just off the track or getting back into shape, from the ground up with your training methods. Most live at private farms that do not have arenas/riding areas. If we are able to haul a horse over to an indoor ring for an under saddle video we will, but that is dependent on the horse, schedule of foster home, and availability of a facility with an arena or place to ride. Shipping into a farm costs ring fees and sometimes expecting to pull a horse out of a field, haul them to a new place, hop on and expect them to knock our socks off is a lot to ask of a horse....but some of them do just that and those are the ones that sell fast, especially to those looking for great show-prospects for themselves or to bring along and sell down the road as an investment project. We can set up
appointments for you to meet the horses, see them move freely (or jog in hand), and vettings are welcome.

PA Racehorse Rehoming,Rehabilitation, Rescue is a Federal 501(c)(3) non-profit organization Federal ID number: 66-0821935
whose Articles of Incorporation were filed with the State of Pennsylvania on May 9, 2014 (effective date of exemption) with
Public Charity Status 509(a)(2) under section 501(c)(3).
Contributions made to PARR are tax deductible. Our Letter of Determination
from the IRS was received on April 16, 2015 and any donations made after May 9th, 2014 may qualify for tax exemption.


Our Legal Name is "PA Racehorse Rehoming, Rehabilitation, & Rescue" and we often go by the abbreviated nickname "PARR". PARR operates  on a 100% volunteer basis with all proceeds going to our cause and the animals. Any and all items or monetary donations go directly to the expenses of supporting these animals. This includes veterinary expenses, transport, "pull" fees, food/boarding or stabling/supplies/etc, legal fees, advertising/event costs, merchandise expenses, website and technology fees etc. Individuals on the Board are not paid for their positions. We offer 100% transparency and are happy to answer any questions and provide all financial information at any time.
Our officers, directors, and volunteers take a neutral position with respect to the controversy associated with horse racing. Our efforts focus on the well being, re-homing, and education and support of ex-racehorses and finding them new careers after their racing careers have ended. We also support at-risk shelter dogs and occasional at-risk horses that end up neglected or in auction/slaughter situations when finances and abilities allow us to help. Any "listings" are simply to help network animals into new homes and we
can not be responsible for the representation of those animals.

As of July 2021, the facility we rented in Pennsylvania was sold out from under us with barely enough time to relocate over 30 horses anywhere in the area. We were able to secure a permanent residence at a new farm in Ocala and move all of our horses there. PARR now resides in Ocala, Florida but still operates as usual, helping horses from Pennsylvania as much as we can, offering sanctuary to our lifelong residents that are not adoptable or require veterinary care to say comfortable, and have our OTTB retraining program here in Ocala as well.

We are now permanently located at 6856 SW 70th Ave. Ocala, Florida 34476.
