Get to Know Adoptable Horse Tundra



Help the Humane Society of Ventura County find long-term resident Tundra his forever home! This 17-year-old gray Arabian gelding arrived at the HSVC on December 23, 2022, after being rescued by their Humane Officers in a case of abuse and neglect. Despite his past and medical issues of metabolic and thyroid problems, Tundra has a sweet personality and doesn’t let his setbacks stop him from trotting around. He would need time to acclimate to new horses, but Tundra would love to be someone’s pasture buddy.

Tundra is also looking for an owner who will be mindful of his gut health and can supply his metabolic supplements and thyroid medications for the rest of his life.

Please note: HSVC is offering help for those who need evacuation/transport assistance to those affected by the ongoing wildfires. You may contact them at 805-646-6505. They have limited space for temporary housing of domestic or large animals. Please also consider donating to Pasadena HumaneLA Animal ServicesLos Angeles Fire Department Foundation, or Los Angeles Fire Department to help the animals and humans affected by these devastating fires.
