Temperament: Romerator is a very down-to-earth horse.  He is not at all your typical thoroughbred.  He will follow you anywhere like a large puppy.  He talks constantly and asks for more treats, more feed, or sometimes just to say thank you.

Physical problems / health issues: Romerator has some lingering dental problems and still has bouts of rain rot.  He came into HfH care also underweight and with severe hoof problems but is now a good weight and his hooves are much better. 

Interaction with horses: His special friend is his foster family’s horse My Girl but he gets along well in a mixed herd.

Interaction with people: Romerator loves people almost as much as he loves treats.  He loves people who offer him treats the very best.  He walks right up to you to say hello and see what you are doing.  Catching him is never a problem.

History: Romerator was a race horse who was discarded when his hooves became too bad for him to run.

Training / abilities: Romerator rides very well.  He neck reins which is unusual for a Thoroughbred.  He has been ridden without problems by a young teenager.

Experience level required to work with this horse: Advanced beginner.

Has this horse ever:  Bucked? No Reared? No Kicked? No Bitten? No Other?

Ground handling: Catch? Yes Lead? Yes Tie? Yes Trailer? Yes Clip? Yes Trim Feet? Yes Bathe? Yes

Special needs: Senior feed and you need to keep an eye on his dental issues.  His current foster home wets down his feed at mealtimes.

Other comments:  This is one great horse.  He has personality plus, he is big and strong, he rides well, and he is a lover.  What more could a family ask for in a horse?
