Shawna
Breed: Arabian
Sex: Mare
DOB: Adult
Height: 14.1
Color: Grey
Markings:
Location
: Lubbock, TX
Adoption Fee: $250

 

 

Temperament: Shawna is calm, gentle, smart, and shy.

Physical problems / health issues: None known. 

Interaction with horses: Gets along fine with a large mixed herd but prefers to stay around the edges of the herd.

Interaction with people: Used to be shy and a little fearful of people but not at all aggressive.  She has overcome her shyness.  She is food motivated and this can still be used to lure her. 

History: Part of a 26 horse seizure in Galveston County, Shawna was primarily used as a broodmare.

Training / abilities:  Shawna has begun her training.  She has been saddled.  Currently she has started ground driving.  She can be turned and stopped and the rest won’t take that long since she is picking up direction easily.  Any handler will need to be patient with her.  She is smart and catches on to what is expected of her when she is given a little time.

Experience level required to work with this horse: Experienced.

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

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

Special needs: None known.

Other comments:  In her life so far Shawna has been handled very little so she needs practice with basics.  With more training she would make a great little riding horse for a child or small adult; she just needs to be finished.
