🐴 Meet Honor — and yes, she’s a little sassy. 😂

Honor is a 6-year-old strawberry roan Mustang cross mare who came to Renaissance in September 2023 after being rescued from heartbreaking conditions. She arrived nearly starved, having been tied to a tree alongside five other horses. She still carries reminders of her past—a white line around her neck and a missing ear—but those things don’t define her.

Today, Honor is a brave, willing mare with a big personality who genuinely enjoys having a job and being someone’s partner. At 13.2 hands, she has four comfortable gaits and a great stop. She has excellent ground manners, ties well and stands quietly, and is comfortable riding both alone and in a group. She loves the trail, confidently crosses water and bridges, and is equally happy working in the arena. She has also been introduced to small jumps, obstacles, and Pony Club-style games.

And we’ll be honest: Honor has some sass. 😂 She isn’t looking for just anyone. She does best with someone confident, capable, patient, and willing to earn her trust. Once she trusts her person, though, she will try her little heart out.

Honor is ADOPTABLE and ready for her next chapter. ❤️🐴

We think she could be a wonderful match for a gutsy kid with an experienced horse family or a fun-loving adult looking for a partner. She may not be a perfect show horse—but she is a special horse with a huge heart and plenty of personality.

📩 Message us on Facebook or email [email protected] to learn more about the adoption process and application for Honor. Located in Vass, NC.
