Hello, My Name is Moonshine.
(ADOPTED 9/2021)
My name is Moonshine and I’m a recent addition to the CDHR herd. I was surrendered by my owner and arrived at CDHR in April of 2021. I’ve just come out of quarantine and have joined the rest of the herd. My paddock mate is Jewell, one of the largest horses here at Autumn Ridge, which is pretty funny because I’m a petite fellow. I’m a Percheron Cross and Dr. Golub thinks I’m in my early 20s. I’m extremely sweet and gentle and will start my training assessment soon.

Moonshine’s Angels
Moonshine is looking for monthly sponsors to help with his monthly care. We are happy to accept any amount from our sponsors, but we do ask that you commit to a regular monthly donation. Your sponsorship frees up funds to allow the rescue and rehabilitation of more draft horses who need help.
