Carte
Breed:
Thoroughbred
Sex: Gelding
DOB: 2000
Height:
16~ hh
Color: Bay
Markings:
star, strip, left rear
sock
Location:
Dickinson, TX
Adoption Fee:
$100
Temperament:
Friendly and curious,
will come to the fence
to greet you any time
you go see him. Follows
my daughter around the
pasture like a big dog.
Loves treats. Does not
like blankets, or fly
spray. Is a little bit
excited on the end of a
lead rope, his plan is
to lead not follow.
Does not like to be
stalled, weaves and
paces, could not wait to
get out! A little
nervous going in a stall
and very excited when he
comes out .
Physical problems /
health issues:
Left front leg fracture
and soft tissue damage
causes him to limp. He
can and does run around
the pasture and
sometimes he pays for it
the next day and his
limp will get worse.
Interaction with horses:
He is in a pasture all
his own because of the
quarantine and will
probably stay that way
once it is lifted. His
pasture is right next to
a pasture with three
horses they are only
separated by the width
of a driveway. Since he
arrived my Morgan who
used to sleep right next
to my other horses has
now moved about 100
yards away from the
others and he and Jude
lay down and sleep
right across from each
other. They seems to
have developed some kind
connection.
Interaction with people:
He loves my 14 year old
daughter! He will let
you touch him all over,
never runs away. Likes
to be groomed. If you
do something he does not
like he will sometimes
let you know by trying
to nibble at you.
