MADELINE
Madeline is Staydopted in honor of Papa Joyner, by his granddaughter, since 2024. Her basic needs are covered for life, because she is loved.
“All Who Wander are not Lost”
There had been reports of a horse, or maybe a donkey, loose on state land. A photo appeared online, of a small mule, who had established residence high up on a challenging state-owned trail. When “something needed to be done”, our team stepped up and after two days and an adventure were finished, she arrived at Rosemary Farm.
Her owners were located, relieved, as they had been searching, but further discussion revealed they bought her as “a calm companion” for their senior horse and instead got a young, energetic explorer! Making this story short, Rosemary Farm welcomed Madeline to the family, where she has won all our hearts and decided to stay put.
Since arriving at the Sanctuary, Madeline has become part of Violet’s Gang, a mixed horse and mule family including her fellow long-ears Rudy, Popcorn Charlie and Junebug.
Madeline is one of a dozen equines at Rosemary Farm supported for life by a kind and generous donor under our Staydoption™ program.
