Important information:

One thing that you will find out very quickly is that these horses may be truly afraid of you! Until you have gained their confidence, they may continue to move away from you. By allowing them time to settle in and get acquainted slowly, you can gain their trust. Once you have gained their trust, you will have one of the most rewarding experiences of your life. There may be times when you experience frustrations, or even doubt, about what you are doing. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Milwaukee staff at 1-800-293-1781, or Jane Loughmiller at 812-239-1211.

  Before you turn your horse out into the pasture, be sure you can catch and halter him easily. He must also be used to your type of fencing. It is recommended that you turn them out into gradually larger areas if possible.

 For the first year after adopting, you do not own the horse and must notify BLM immediately if your animal dies, escapes, or is moved to another location. One year after adopting, you will receive a Title Application in the mail. You must have your veterinarian or other qualified person inspect your animal and sign the application, then return it to your servicing office. Approximately 4-6 weeks later you will receive a Title Certificate in the mail. The Title Certificate should remain with the animal if it is sold or given away. If you are no longer able to care for the animal and have not received title to it, you may return it to the BLM, but you will not receive a refund of your adoption fee.

 Thank you for participating in this great program!
