Kamry
Breed: Grade
Sex: Mare
DOB: 1998 - 2000 
Height: 14.1 
Color: Bay
Markings: Cresent moon on forehead
Location: Liberty Hill, TX 
Adoption Fee: $500
 

 

 

Temperament:  Kamry is very social, but can be pushy. She loves attention and is good on the ground (however, she does not like her feet being handled!) but is very rusty under saddle. She stays very clean and she’s an overall easy keeper.

Physical problems / health issues:  None.

Interaction with horses: If given the opportunity, she will be the boss mare and then she will be aggressive towards the other horses. She was pastured with another young mare for a week, and she was very aggressive. In her herd of four geldings and another mare right now, she and the other mare are primarily at the bottom and she just stays out of everybody’s way.

Interaction with people:   She is very social and likes to follow you around, but she can be pushy and she will test you, especially when under saddle. But otherwise she is very sweet and loves to be doted over.

History: Kamry was seized by law enforcement and awarded to Habitat for Horses. She had been neglected and was emaciated.

Training / abilities: She is sound and being ridden in her foster home! When evaluated under saddle, she was a little rusty, and appears to only have been taught the basics. She took the bit and the girth tentatively but did not show extreme fear of any. She did pick up a trot after much persuasion, but never wanted to pick up a canter.

Experience level required to work with this horse:  Intermediate on the ground, advanced under saddle.

Has this horse ever: Bucked? No. Reared? No. Kicked? Yes (but has not done so in a few months) Bitten? No Other? N/A

Ground handling: Catch? Yes Lead? Yes. Tie? N/A Trailer? Yes. Clip? N/A Trim Feet? Difficult Bathe? N/A

Other comments:  She is athletic, nicely built, and might make a good hunter or English pleasure pony. She is the perfect size for an older child or small adult, she just needs training.
