Arif

After my last owners abandoned me I wandered around, a bit confused, until they brought me to the Horses' Home. The other horses welcomed me and my caregivers say that I have a long period of rehabilitation in front of me but that afterwards they will find me a new home

Arif got his name because he was found wandering in the Moshav Beit Arif area, in the agricultural fields, on the roads and around the residential area of the Moshav.

On his arrival at the Society’s stables, he underwent veterinary examination which determined that he was underweight, in need of hoof trimming and anti-worm treatment and was suffering from wounds in his hind legs, apparently from being tied up in an unfit manner.

The 12 year-old Arif will undergo rehabilitation in the Society’s Horses’ Home and then, once he regains his strength, we will do our utmost to find him a suitable home.

Update: After a long process of rehabilitation that took a year, we found an adoptive home for Arif in Ben Shemen area.
