Review for Misfit Acres, Amboy, MN, USA
Misfit acres was there when two aging, starved arabian mares needed them immediately. There wasn't any time to find other options, they needed to be removed the day I found out about it. Misfit acres was there. Even though at the time they weren't set up for two more hungry horses they knew the timing of the rescue was top priority for these two horses. The body score on the one mare was maybe 1.5 and the other 2.5 and I might be generous here. Jodi made room for the two mares and took great care of them. She found a great home for the younger of the two and kept the oldest one to live out her days there. Without Misfit acres these horses would not have lasted another week without suffering permenant damage. Their horses always look good and happy. These are great people who put forth more than they will ever get in return. Honest, Humble and Hardworking is how I would describe them. Value of their service cannot be measured for the lives of the horses they have helped.

I could have gotten the pony out too...we only had the legal right to remove the two mares
In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...
keeping the money coming in at a steady pace for feed and the constant need for repairs that goes with housing livestock

When you meet Jodi and her husband you will see that they have been putting these horse first for a very long time. You will see the genuine nature and character and know that the donations are going all back to the health and safety of the horses.
