 Chloe
Breed:
Thoroughbred
Sex:
Mare
DOB: approx 1983
Height:
16 hh
Color: Bay
Markings: None
Location:
Hitchcock, TX
Adoption Fee:
$100
Temperament:
Sweet and docile.
Spunky without being
antsy, high strung, or
hyper as many
Thoroughbreds can be.
Physical problems /
health issues:
Chloe is a bit
swaybacked.
Interaction with horses:
She is out with a small
mixed herd and is in the
middle of the pecking
order.
Interaction with people:
Once Chloe gets to know
you, she is fine. She
can be a bit standoffish
at first, though. She
likes treats and appears
to have been someone’s
center of attention at
some point in her life.
History:
Chloe was found as an
estray in Walker County
and was donated to HfH.
Training / abilities:
Chloe is broke to ride
but is swaybacked and
elderly so riding is not
advisable. When she was
tested, it was hard to
get her to do anything
under saddle. She did
not buck or rear but her
reaction to most of what
she was asked to do was
to back up.
Experience level
required to work with
this horse:
Beginner on the ground.
Has this horse ever:
Bucked? No
Reared? No
Kicked? No
Bitten? No Other?
Ground handling:
Catch? Yes;

Lead? Yes Tie?
Yes Trailer? Yes

Bathe? Yes
Special needs:
Chloe is a messy eater
and does not chew whole
grains well so does best
on a diet of pelleted
food and free choice
hay. When flies are
active she needs a mask
because her eyes will
water when they get on
her face.
Other comments:
Chloe is a very high
class Thoroughbred with
a coat like polished
glass. She does not
like dogs very much.
She is also very
protective of her food
and lays back her ears
at other animals if they
are near when she is
eating so separation
when feeding is advised.
