Horse Illustrated, in partnership with the ASPCA’s Right Horse program, features a weekly adoptable horse to help connect loving homes with horses in need. This week’s spotlight is on Eema’s Escape, a gentle 30-year-old American Quarter Horse mare rescued by Days End Farm Horse Rescue in Maryland. Once abandoned in a state park, Eema now enjoys a calm life and is ideal as a steady companion for beginner handlers and children. Though retired from riding, she thrives on quiet affection and slow walks, making her perfect for a peaceful retirement home.

Eema is part of the Guardian Program at Days End Farm Horse Rescue, meaning her care expenses are tax-deductible. The ASPCA’s Right Horse initiative aims to increase horse adoptions nationwide by connecting potential adopters with horses like Eema through their online platform.
