What is Branded Partnerships?

Want to adopt a wild horse or burro, but worried about your ability to actually "do it" successfully? We got you. Already have a strong equine training skillset and ready to use that to be part of something bigger? We got you, too.

Branded Partnerships builds on the success of previous training/adoption programs while making thoughtful improvements that benefit the adopter, the trainer and, most importantly, the horse or burro. As a community and wild horse and burro advocates, our overarching goal is to get these animals out of BLM holding and match them with the right, long-term adopters. Branded Partnerships does just that.

By placing emphasis on partnering with trainers who share our vision and support the Forever Branded mission, we create an environment that places the horse or burro first. Through safeguards and careful matching, we do our part to ensure every animal enrolled in this program has the best chance of finding the correct, long-term partnership.

Sound like something you want to be a part of? Well, we'd love to have you as part of our community. Stay tuned for more as we launch and continue to build out this integral program.
