What is a Branded Adoption Center?

There are Bureau of Land Management (BLM) holding/adoption facilities in 12 states, mostly across the western US. Obviously, making more wild horses and burros accessible to potential adopters who may not live close to an existing facility is a priority. This directly results in increased adoptions and directly builds our community, which speaks directly to the heart of Forever Branded's mission.

Branded Adoption Centers are privately run facilities contracted through Forever Branded to house and offer wild horses and burros for public adoption. These facilities are vetted and inspected by both Forever Branded and BLM personnel to ensure they can safely care for and house at least 20 animals at one time. The facility operators are required to prove through a rigorous application and interview process that they are both up to the task and are aligned with the Forever Branded mission and values.

SUPPORT THE MISSION

We exist because of our love for these amazing wild horses and burros.

When we brought home our first branded beauty, we had no idea that we'd become a part of a much larger community...a family. That's the piece that no one tells you; when you adopt a wild horse or burro, you join an incredible network of people just like you. People who love what these horses represent, their abilities, and the partnership opportunities that come from gaining the trust of a wild horse or burro.

Whether you currently have a pasture full of branded horses or are simply in awe of their story, the Forever Branded family is yours, too.
