Our Champions program is designed to provide protection and care for the Standardbreds that have graudated through our adoption program. It ensures the long-term health and well-being of these beloved animals. 

​

The New Start Standardbreds Champion Representatives will be responsible for completing assessments on any horse that is in the program, whether in foster, or a graduate, on a scheduled timeline.

These assessments will be completed at the post-adoption time markings of;

    one month,

    four months,

    eight months,

    and then yearly for a period of three (3) years.

This is a total of six (6) assessments on a horse before ownership is transferred.

​

Champions will be be provided a one page explanation on exactly what each assessment should include, along with a one page scenario description to ensure consistent outcomes of each assessment completed. They will also be provided with a BCS scale listing, to provide consistency in weight and body condition reviews.
